Is it possible for you to make mirror editing of weapons angle and arcs after loading .ship? Now is possible after putting on ship but using already made .ship mirror editing is not possible.


Dude (Trylobot) don't look at me like that i'm just asking... Errr? What you gonna do with tha....!!!!  HEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   I got cookies? NO? Heeeeeellllllllpppppppppppppppp!!!!



edit: After using editor for modifying ships:   At one point i did trigger mirror modification of weapon slots on loaded .ship file... On some slots mirror modification works on some not. Why? I don't know...

[Trylobot]

@arcibalde: Unfortunately, the problem you are seeing is that to edit in mirrored mode, the slots or engines have to be exactly mirrored for them to be detected. Some of the existing vanilla ships are "eyeballed" and so are treated as unique slots.

You have to move the slots that are "close to mirrored" around until the positions exactly match up; from that point on, they should move together.

Any updates?  I'm looking forward to launch bay support!

[Trylobot]

None yet, haven't been doing starfarer stuff lately. Expect an update shortly after the next update to the main game.

Okeedokee, good luck!

This tool is so awesome, I want to support it.  If you make a little 250x70px "made with Trylobot's ship editor" banner tag, I'd be happy to put it in my mod's OP and link the image to your thread.

Here's a banner, for those who wish to use it (I do not mind if you do not use it):  

Also: launch bay support will be in the next version.

When can we expect the next version to come out?

Latest Changes
editor version 2.1 (starfarer 0.52a)
- ship: launch bay mode; press L to use
- variant: weapon group autofire attribute added; press A to toggle
- variant: max weapon groups increased to 5


OP updated with download link; I also feel I should explain how launch bays work, because I only recently was corrected by Alex himself and had previously misunderstood how they work.

Apparently, every launch bay is merely a collection of points, and fighters enter/exit those locations when the whole wing needs to dock for repairs. The number of total launch bays determines the total number of simultaneous wings that can be docked. The editor reflects this.

Awesome, thanks for the update, can't wait to use it!

[CrashToDesktop]

Oh-ra, baby!  Thanks for updating it!
When you place a launch bay, does it also play the specific effects when the fighter goes in? e.g. the sparks and welding where the point was?

[Erick Doe]

5 weapon groups? Handy! Thanks, Trylobot!

This editor is the best.  Hats off to you, sir
