I'm not sure why, but I cannot seem to login to your editor anymore, nor register..

Neither button do anything when I click them.

Maybe I'm just doing it wrong, Anybody else having trouble?

For the record, the web-based one is Redbull's. So you'll have to ask him.

Umm, I'm using a laptop and I can't use the mouse wheel to zoom in or out.  Can I remap that in any way?

What if I'm making a fighter? and I would like to have a set of them in a wing or squad. How would I go about doing that?

[Trylobot]

@Zilerrezko - First you create the ship, as you would any other. But you make sure to use FIGHTER for the size where appropriate. Then you create a variant (required step) for the fighter, giving it weapons and such. I don't think hullmods ever apply here to fighters, but am not sure. Lastly, you go to "wing_data.csv" and add info about your fighter wing, what variant it is, how many in a wing, wing formation, value, etc. And then when writing missions java code and such, you use FIGHTER_WING instead of the other one, appropriately.

[Zilerrezko]

Ah thanks man a big help. btw do you know anything about making turrets past making the sprite for one and a custom beam with all that, or even custom colored engines?

[Trylobot]

Sorry the beams and engines are procedural, can only set variable inputs for them but no custom graphics

[Zilerrezko]

oh darn, oh well, back to the drawing board haha

editor version 1.9 (starfarer 0.51a)
- string editing is made faster for values that are enums; instead of typing
  them, use arrow left/right to choose a value from the list of acceptable
  values. the field is updated immediately.
- can now open, edit and save *.variants - use [1] and [2] to toggle between
  *.ship mode and *.variant mode; still use [D] and [V] to open/save
- click a weapon slot to assign a weapon from the list of weapons that are
  valid to occupy that slot; filters based on size & type of slot from
  currently loaded *.ship data
- press M to load a mod; it will be noted in the settings data so that it is
  auto-loaded on next startup of the editor; this will add the mod's data
  to the stock data for weapon slot selection and OP cost analysis & validation
- While in variant mode:
  Press T to edit variant string-data
  Press G to edit weapon groups
  Press F & C to increment flux mods. Shift+F & Shift+C to decrement. They
    will cap out at the limit for your ship's hull size
  Press H to select hull mods
    If you exceed the OP max specified in the ship CSV for the ship's hullID,
    it will be red-coloured but it will not otherwise prevent you
- WARNING: it is now REQUIRED that Starfarer be installed on the computer
  where the editor is being used, as the vanilla data is automatically loaded
  to speed up selection of multi-select values, and to prevent the editor
  from needing to be explicitly updated when Starfarer adds new such values
- fixed bug with key states after opening system dialogs in windows
