Hey peeps!
I'm a big fan of space games and a BIG fan of modding. I've seen a few familiar names here so I know I'm in a good company.
Anyway, got my hands on the game just a few days ago...
Oh My God
What an AWESOME game you have here - even if it's 'just 0.51a', as I'm writing this!
To them questions!
I've managed to add a few ships and managed to get them appear in the station & make one as my starting ship.
1. However, I'm wondering what would be the 'easiest' way to get more than the one (I suppose you could add more than one in the station, or at multiple stations) during the game as time goes on? Also without savegame editing later on.
I'm currently using the Minimash mod as well as the ones I've made, but I've done it by integrating my new ships and weapons into that mod. Not the most convinient solution when that mod is updated as I will have to change several files each time. Not a such a big problem, but a chore I'd rather live without, if possible.
2. How, if possible, would I get my own ships & weapons in the game alongside of the Minimash mod without merging them?
3. Also, as in question 1, how to do it so they'd appear later in the game?
As I've used the Minimash mod and it recently split split between more guns and the rest, I noticed both of them have several files with the same name but different contents. Such as "ship_data.csv", "descriptions.csv" and a couple more.
4. Which files can be duplicated 'per mod' basis?
5. I added 2 hangar bays for my ship with the
http://sseditor.dyndns.org/sse/dev/ editor but when in-game, the fighters land in the middle of the ship instead of the 2 bays I entered. Where did I go wrong and how to fix it?
"weaponSlots": [
{
"angle": "0",
"arc": "5",
"id": "Left_hangar",
"locations": [
-54,
95
],
"mount": "HARDPOINT",
"size": "SMALL",
"type": "LAUNCH_BAY"
},
{
"angle": "0",
"arc": "5",
"id": "Right_hangar",
"locations": [
-54,
-95
],
"mount": "HARDPOINT",
"size": "SMALL",
"type": "LAUNCH_BAY"
},
I'm sure I had more, but those escape me for now.. I'll ask them later when I remember them again!
Thanks in advance for any help.
