I think I found a symbol no one mentioned...

Mixed Tech Bonus = ¯

Interesting how no one caught it....

Huh... I never noticed that was missing.

Yep.... never seen it in the list... though you have to admit some people can confuse it with the weapon range. I didn't notice the difference until I highlighted it.

To: RCIX

Don't forget that thing please... some of us still make mixed tech stuff.

right in order to add a line of text for warpin ships u need to add a replace weapon for the warpped in vessel

Code: Select all

wpnname = "Warpin"
buttonslot = 0
replacement0class0 = "fed_nebula"
replacementevent = "FederationWarpinNebula"
replacementkeepname = 1
replacementafterwarpin = 1
classlabel = "replaceweapon"
special = 1
replacementmaintainorders = 1
replacementregisterasnew = 0
replacementcreationtype = 1
speakonattack = 0
attackspeech = 0


replacement0class0 = "fed_nebula" // changes the ship to a functional vessel
replacementevent = "FederationWarpinNebula" // this is an link to a location to the events.dat file

Code: Select all

FederationWarpinNebula{
Text "FEDERATION-NEBULA-ARRIVED"
SaveLocation
Global
Marker radius 32 shrink 0.05 time 1 color 0 1 0
}


Text "FEDERATION-NEBULA-ARRIVED" // this links to the code tag in the dynamic_localized_strings.h file which stores the text for wen the ship arrives

hope this helps

hi after looking into how warpin works i've noticed that there is a replace weapon code u forgot which is

replacementafterwarpin = 1
and as it suggests after the ship has arrived it is replaced

Huh. I thought i got that one... I'll add it ASAP.

hi found another replace weapon code which is:

replacementselect = 0
0 = only keeps one section selected (i think the first item in the replace list)
1 = keeps all sections selected

sorry guys more stuff

addmetal = 0.05 // adds 0.05 metal (connections) every second may work with other resources
alwaysactiveplayer = 1 // keeps the weapon active if under player control
alwaysactiveai = 1 // keeps weapon active under ai control
classlabel = "resourceweapon" // says the weapon is a resource weapon

*teleports in*

Yeah, sorry. I dropped out of the Fleetops community a while back. 1337_Gamer (or anyone else interested) is welcome to officially take over maintenance of this project, as i won't likely be coming back to it. I only ask that, far in the future, if i ever do decide to come back on then you let me help again with it

Sayonara, this is sort of my (official) goodbye post, it's been (mostly) good talking with you guys!

*teleports out leaving everyone blinded in a flash of light *

Darn shame: I hope somebody decides to take up the task.
