Just wanted to announce, that even though the GameObject modding section of the guide was released some time ago, it's now 'officially complete'. All commands should be listed, and almost all should be described. Cheers!

The Explosion and Ordnance sections of the modding guide have been released!

There are around 40 ODF commands that I cannot nail down entirely, any help would be appreciated in discovering their function ODF Commands - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Fleet Operations

Mr. Vulcan's 3dsMax SOD Exporter V1.1 download has been added to the guide, along with his tutorial

Also, some time ago I forgot to mention that the RTS_CFG.h commands list was completed.

Complete list of Physics configuration ODF commands is up

If you know what the asterisked (unknown) commands do, please let me know

Found a (new?) shiptype in 8472_cruise2.odf: "A". Commentary in that odf seems to indicate that A stands for Artillery.

Hey CaptainPicardD,

Thanks for the point out . In this case pretty sure however that's defunct - it's not indicated in the executable and is non-functional in game.

Perhaps place a note in the Guide that it doesn't do anything even though it looks like it does?

A good suggestion, but I'm afraid if I did that, the guide would be twice as long: there are hundreds of defunct commands listed/described throughout the Armada II ODFs.
