Modding SW3?

[Lotrek]

nocalora29 I feel kinda bad coming back with more but you asked for it!

I did a full test of GW's Mothership mod and found the following:

All Pilots have the correct templates!

The Bastard fighter has a slot for missiles but when I tried to equip it I got "This device cannot be installed in this socket"

The following "Other" Motherships have no interior template - the good ole "Scanning Process Aborted: Unknown Source" :

Stone Arrow, Portal Transport, Alien Dreadnaught, Alien Frigate, Chimera, Super Chimera, Phoenix, Angor Frigate.

I was unable to buy major caliber turrets - Option 13 Mothership Equipment. When I attempt to buy them I just get "[Wizzy] Make your selection..." No credit deduction, no inventory item. Subsequently, I was unable to test the Silver Arrow's 2 slots.

Hope this helps and thank you for the work you are doing to keep the game alive!

Alright, I will look into it, Thanks.

Could you post also the Log files somewhere or Upload them when things like these occur?, Especially when Dialog options aren't working, Since they just call functions from the lua files from the Game. would help me alot

These 2 files are important
LOGfile.txt
And
ScriptErrors.log

The Others motherships never Were supposed to have GUI Slots, but I can also make some for them, could be pretty hard on the Dreadnaught tho, but I will try.

In Editing the Other Motherships. Maybe you can get the files from the SW1 Mothership Mod . All the Motherships there have GUI Slots including Battleship & Dreadnaught (http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=16158)

[nocalora29]

Really good Idea!, I've added the gui slots Right away.

Thanks.

EDIT

@Lotrek:

I Think I have fixed now all the problems that you Told me... need m0ar.

BTW: I Also would like some Testing on the System Management script That I worked on, Try it out. You can configure the SysM_Kobra System from the Maintance Station Dialog. should there somwhere, then visit corrino and Fly to the Kobra system.

Im wondering what the results will be with your Awesome testing Skills

I've gone through GW's original script and the GW script you have in your version and I can see no difference with the GK turrets. I know in the previous version I was able to buy them.

Here is the snippet from Data\Scripts\include\GW that I am referring to:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---- Buy MS EQUIPMENT section --------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

function buy_THGK3()
buy_ms_eq("THGK3");
end;

function buy_TLGK3()
buy_ms_eq("TLGK3");
end;

function buy_TPGK3()
buy_ms_eq("TPGK3");
end;

function buy_TRGK3()
buy_ms_eq("TRGK3");
end;


function buy_ms_eq(eq_name)
local tab_ms_eq = {
{"THGK3",350000},
{"TLGK3",350000},
{"TPGK3",350000},
{"TRGK3",350000}
};

local cost = 0;
for k, x in tab_ms_eq do
if (x[1] == eq_name) then
cost = x[2];
end;
end;
if (cost == 0) then return FALSE;
end;

local cash = GetPlayerCredits();
if (cash >= cost) then
mothership:AddModuleToInventory(eq_name, 1);
SubPlayerCredits(cost);
OutputToScreenLog("#UI_item_buy_ok",7);
else
OutputToScreenLog("#UI_buy_fail",7);
end;
end;

I checked Data/Game/Modules and THGK3, TLGK3, TPGK3, TRGK3 are all there with complete parameters. All the referenced items are located in Data\TEXTURE\Interface\Module\32. As far as I can tell, the above script should work.

I looked at the script in your mod used to buy the MD-5 black hole Particle Accelerator under option 9 Star Equipment:

-- //////////////////////////// --
-- // Star Equipment Section // --
--//////////////////////////// --

function buy_RG4()
buy_ms_eq("RG4");
end;


function buy_ms_eq(eq_name)
local tab_ms_eq = {
{"RG4",75000},
};

local cost = 0;
for k, x in tab_ms_eq do
if (x[1] == eq_name) then
cost = x[2];
end;
end;
if (cost == 0) then return FALSE;
end;

local cash = GetPlayerCredits();
if (cash >= cost) then
mothership:AddModuleToInventory(eq_name, 1);
SubPlayerCredits(cost);
OutputToScreenLog("#UI_item_buy_ok",7);
else
OutputToScreenLog("#UI_buy_fail",7);
end;
end;

Comparing the two scripts they seem identical with the exception of the item they are to buy. The black hole script works, the GK turret one does not. I am at a loss as to why at this point since they seem to be the same code.

Yes, I Used it as an Template, but it is fixed in v0.3.1: See Signature.

[Lotrek]

OK I d/l both Nanaki's Fleet Mod & GW's Mothership Mod and SW3.Expansion Mod v0.3.1.

I was able to buy the GK turrets but alas another error has occurred. When I hover over them in my inventory or right click them I get: Not found String: #String_LDESC_GK1 The same goes for GK2, GK3, and GK4.

I'll do more testing later, gotta run some errands.
