Nice script,but im STILL not understanding how peoples ships run into the rocks...mine arent...had mine on autopilot through several rock infested systems and it never hit any of them..and my fps are 60+, with a cheap ATI X700Pro 256meg X16 card(without AA and AF on and 1024x768x32).

anyway I may try your script later if my game starts getting sluggish and my ships start hitting stuff...

After entering mode 4 do not enter null for sector, just select the sector you are in.

The script was originally design to work on one sector, just work around the crudy interface for now :wink:

This destroys all rocks? The rocks showed on the sectormap too?

If yes - could you make a 5th option to remove all rocks that are not showed in the sectormap ind the whole universe? :)

What is meant by a rock is an asteroid that does not appear on the sector map.

So mode 4 already does what you need - removed all the rocks

Now the things that do show up on the sector map are asteroids that can be factory mined. They are not removed by the script at all (in any mode).

If I deleted all the asteroids as well then the community would probably lynch me :o

Should do, it finds and validate each sector from universe index values. It already checks up to 25 in x and y.

Any sectors that are further out could be cleaned individually.

Any one know the highest sector index values for XFP?

Okay, this is from memory so it might be a bit off:

1. Down load the file, unzip it and go into the folder it contains called "Copy to scripts"..

2. Copy the file "cheat.removerocks.xml"

3. Now find your "scripts" directory in the X3 game folder. You should see it already contains alot of .pck files.

4. Paste "cheat.removerocks.xml" into this folder

5. Start X3

6. Rename your pilotname to "Thereshallbewings" to activate the script editor

7. Press Y and select orders, in the menu there should be the option to open the script editor (short cut key s)... open it

8. Hit return to skip the script editor intro screen

9. You should now see a list of scripts.

10. Use the cursor keys to move down the list to "cheat.removerocks"

11. Run this script by pressing r

12. The editor will now ask for an object on which this script will run or null. Select the ship you are in (sector map / then your ship).

13. Next it asks for a number. I guess you want to remove all the rocks from your universe so select 4 and hit return

14. Now it asks for a sector, do not select null, but instead just choose the sector you are currently in

15. The script will now run and the game wil lock up for a while (an autopilot X will appear on you HUD while it is running)

16. Wait till it completes

17. Have a look in you player log to see if you have the "Remove rocks mode 4 completed" message

18. Done - you might need to leave and reenter the sector to get rid of some left over "ghost" rocks that have to be flushed from the graphics card

19. Congrats, you are now rocks free

Question:

Will it work with all the new sectors added by the XFP package, or are we out of luck there? I currently use the package, and would love to have all the extra rocks squashed, in all sectors. Thanks B.

Yes, the new XFP sectors are within range so it should work.

Old thread I know, but I need help :/


I have the script installed, the script editor enabled...

When I go to the script list, I hit r on this script, select ship>sector I'm in>my ship. Then it says input number....I hit 4. It says select sector....I hit enter on the one I'm in and hit enter....and it just goes back to the script list, with nothing changed.

Try leaving and reentering the sector to see if it is just a problem with ghost rocks. Also try doing the same using mode 1.

:/ It didn't do anything....

In the end I deleted it and then re-installed it, and now it works.

HOWEVER, it doesn't lock up...even for 1 second, so I don't know what thats all about......
