each time i try to test fire a weapon i'm making for a private mod
.wpn file looks like

Yes, it's supposed to be that ridiculously powerful, it's made for crushing battlestations.
Any way to fix it?
-Edit: It works if i comment out the first sound effect, but neither one plays.

Is there any way to stop the battle before the battle occured?
And, how to make a fleet change faction when it come close to another hostile faction's fleet?

[bananana]

sup.
about lasers. the guardian PD has attribute "convergeOnPoint": true
i vvanted to make tvvinbeam laser, that converges on some point betvveen emitters. sadly, it didn't vvork, beams converge on point directly in front of the offset 1, like so:

Spoiler

[close]

is there some trickery(not scrips, i can't script) i can do to fix that issue.
if not, does anyone have a suggestion on to how such a vveapon should behave? (2 barrels vvith about 500px spacing betvveen)

I think by default beams like this will always converge to the first offset coordinates set, so in order to get them to converge directly in the center you'd need a third beam (with its offset specified first in the array) firing from the middle of the ship.

Depends on exactly what you mean. You can provide your own implementation of FleetInteractionDialogPluginImpl, though, which means you could do just about anything in theory.

And, how to make a fleet change faction when it come close to another hostile faction's fleet?

Yeah, exactly. The whole thing is a bit of a hack.

I can immidiately see 2 things:

1. At "final float maxArmor = armor.getMaxArmorInCell()," (row 38, I think) the line ends in a comma, not a semicolon

2. In the "advanceInCombat" function the hullSize variable is, indeed, an unknown variable. The function passes in a ShipAPI, but not the ships hullSize directly. To fix this, you would need to add:

Code

HullSize hullSize = ship.getHullSize();

inside the function. It also has to be before you try to call it (row 39, I think?).

(Seriously, use an IDE. At this point you've spent *way* more time on errors that wouldn't happen if you had one, and if you set one up, you'll probably learn something generally-useful as well.)

[Histidine]

@Tufted Titmouse: Just to quickly check, do you have the corresponding sounds.json entries set up?

There's supposed to be a sounds.json? Where does it go?
Nevermind, i found it, Will fix


-edit Nope, That didn't fix it

I know. I got it and i reported that toHeal doesn't have a type (should be float).

But one thing hat I can't figure out, since this isn't my code, someone else wrote it - where the hell is "amount" defined?
It is called as a variable, but I see nothing defining it....

EDIT: Nevermind. Module works now.

Thanks a lot! And I found that, if one fleet addAssignment(FleetAssignment.GO_TO_LOCATION, somewhere, 30f), it may stop  in the half way and the fleet would try to catch nearby hostile fleet, ignoring the assignment what i have gived. Is there anyway to make AI fleets concertrate on my assignments?

[Morrokain]

2 things:

1) Anyone using intellij know why recompiling would add 100mb each compile despite no script changes?? My jar is now at 1.2 gb from relatively minor scrip cleanup and other small changes. At this point netbeans is looking way more attractive...

2) I'm looking for a way to call a memory map variable in a script to check for "easymode"

something like:

Code

       easyMode = memoryMap.get(MemKeys.GLOBAL).getBoolean("$EasyStart");

Can't find the variable in a dump anywhere in the campaign.

Even just pointing to a class or script that contains it would be good enough.
