Tech tree viewer in the works...

Phoenix - I used Word to find the line number several times (after I saw your post), perhaps MS is wrong.

[edit] I downloaded Metapad and used it. Got past the first error and am now getting error in line 668 of vehiclesize.txt which is this;

Requirement Must Have Bridge := True
Requirement Can Have Aux Con := False
Requirement Min Life Support := 1
Requirement Min Crew Quarters := 0
Requirement Uses Engines := True
Requirement Max Engines := 9
Requirement Pct Fighter Bays := 0

Requirement Pct Cargo := 0

Same problem here. I removed all the units, and it loaded the file successfully.. but it then goes through, loads everything, and doesn't DO anything. Goes to a Pause, and if I press a button the program termintes. Never goes off the pause.

Gandalph:
Is that vehicle size a unit?
then it should have 2 more fields called Launched from planet and Launched from ship.

Phoenix:
It's supposed to do that, it's only the loader of the program i'm working on. So no user interface yet.

Those two lines were removed in Last Version, since they were not working anyway.

oh..didn't know that...i'll have to change my program then...

[Lemmy]

i changed the program so that it is no longer necessary to have those two line at the end of each unit size, i haven't added the ability to have higher tech requirements that max yet, that will probably have to wait till next week or so, and i didn't want to keep you waiting to long...

get it here

OK, it now goes through without any errors, gets to the end, press any key to finish, then what? I did not see any new file created, so what does it do?

PS - Not trying to sound impatient, just curious.
