[SCRIPT] Turret on/off Hotkey V1 (3.16.07)

[stthrobber]

The script can start several turret scripts. (that's the ON part =)

If a script attempts to start a certain script and that script does not exist, X3 goes bye bye.

If the crashes happen when pressing the hotkey, that's most likely why.

That would make sense, at least one of the crashes was when using the hotkey to turn the turrets off.

I've checked the forum and downloaded a suite of turrent commands and installed those along with the script of this thread, and again it crashed, so I left the suite installed and uninstalled the turret on/off hotkey and it seems to be stable again, so I'll stick with what I have for now

This may be able to help with the deathblossom effect on the starfighter i'm doing, switching them on and off when needed.

sounds good

It has certainly helped me go from 500k credits yesterday to over 40 million today, and that includes doing a mission defending a sector from the Xenon, but without this script a lot of the debris I have picked up and sold would have disappeared

I would DEARLY love to see this script for X3TC.
I can even offer ad-free web hosting if it is done ! (I have my own domain)

I finally came back to finish off reunion and I'm trying to get the hotturrent mod to work. I've put the xml files in their respective folders and launched the game, but when I go to the interface tab in the ontrols setup screen there isn't a new hotkey titled "Turret On-Off Switch".

I have v2.5 with the all in one bonus pack installed.

Thanks

Have you made sure to set your game to *modified*? Otherwise the script files won't be loaded.

If you haven't done so yet, activate the Script Editor, as described here and save and reload your game.
