Re: Modding Q/A - File: VehicleUnitTypes.txt

No, I don't think so. I was referencing my issue #5 below in the first post regarding naming convention problems if you use something that had one of the original default names in it.

Re: More data weirdness

I suppose the easiest thing to do is cut/paste good information into relevant posts as they appear.

Re: Suggestion for Modding Forum/Knowledge Base

Mindi - in the past two days alone (2 pages) I count close to 20 threads that would probably belong in that forum. I think there is too much material frankly, but this is the best I can think of. ...

Re: Suggestion for Modding Forum/Knowledge Base

Just a quick clarification in case I was not clear in the original post. I think the existing mod/scenario forum is good (and should still remain) as to what I perceive it to be - that is a place to...

Re: SEV: Question: Attacker and Defender Columns...

This was reported early in the beta (like May of last year). As I recall I think the response we got is that it is working as intended, in otherwords its based on the hex, not the actual parties. If...

Re: Sound Issues

I think what is also happening is that certain sound are marked for 3D effect (like combat effects) and others are simply 2D UI. It is the 3D effect ones that tend to be too loud if the camera...

Re: Modding Q/A - File: VehicleUnitTypes.txt

Yup, that would be consistent with how it treated my "Garrison Troop" - made it available to any other unit with "Troop" in its name.

Suggestion for Modding Forum/Knowledge Base

Re: Modding Q/A - File: VehicleUnitTypes.txt

Yeah, no that cannot be it. The default "Weapon Platform" works just fine, so it can accept spaces fine.

[EDIT]

I figured it out. What the game engine did not like was that my new unit...

Re: Modding Q/A - File: VehicleUnitTypes.txt

Interesting. Perhaps it is not accepting unit types with a space in them. For my ground combat mod I was creating a "Garrison Troop". Could it be that simple?

Re: Retrofitting

Nope, SE4 had the "checkbox" system, where you could select mutiple ships in the sector and then select a valid design to retrofit them all too.

Re: Retrofitting

yes, that is on the UI wish list. Also on that same list is the UI that will allow us to retrofit units as contemplated in the VehicleUnitTypes.txt file ability "Can be Retrofitted"
