YAY finally,
downloaded the 'plus' installing now and thank you very very very very much.
Just got my self stations for a space weed/space fuel complex (just supply it with e-cells) and had a hell of a time trying to place the stations neatly even by spending most time reading and reloading
this is a must have script
going to try it out now
thanks again

Question - FCC v4.0.
I have started to amass a small fortune in X3TC atm using patrol missions
and was starting to look at building complexes and my own PHQ.
So i downloaded Factory Complex Constructor but i cannot find any
txt.document where to install unzip the script. I have also searched on this
site but can't seem to find any info.
Where to unzip the FCC v4.0 ?. The main game-folder or in the scriptfolder.

FCC v4.0 - Remove Beacons?
Was setting up my next complex and suddenly i noticed i had a few saved
'station beacons' and now i can't remove them. I read the FCC manual but
it only says how to create them, not how to delete them.

Object commands:
(Var/Number is a boolean TRUE/FALSE)
or if you need to identify an agressor:
<RefObj> destroy object: killer=Value>, show no explosion=<Var/Number>

Edit: Topics merged, misinterpreted the request (as not familiar with term FCC) as a scripting question, please ignore.
Looks interesting. Have read it before and certainly appeals as a complex manager.
Code: Select all
<RefObj> destruct: show no explosion=<Var/Number>

Need advice with FCC.
After placing my PHQ I'm in the process of build some mega complex to support it. The first one in the pile is a big Argon food factory.
Basically I figured out placing all the Castle Ranch L vertically on top of each other will make them look really good. But I spent about one hours and still can not find a good position/orientation to put the Cahoona Bakery L in. I tried quite a few times and they all look funky when I try to connect the Bakeries into the Castle Ranches.
So anyone have any advice on station positioning for a good looking Argon Food complex? (10 Castle Ranch L + 10 Cahoona Bakery L). Thanks.

I am sorry, but i am quiet new to X3 and a total noob with scipts. What do i writepelador wrote:Object commands:

where to make those station-beacons go away?.
If they are relevant to the FCC process i wouldnt want to advise doing anything with them without guidance from Dusty they may have a purpose?Dreez wrote:I am sorry, but i am quiet new to X3 and a total noob with scipts. What do i writepelador wrote:Object commands:

However if you download the Cycrows cheat package it has destroy ship object command already in it if you just want to do some tidying up (beacons are ship objects so should remove them). You set the beacon as the target object then in the menu you will see the destroy function.
A simple script could be done to delete the beacons but as the above already exists and can handle multiple tweak situations so useful having for testing/corrections even if you dont use it as a cheat process. Then there is the old fashion way and may be more fun of simply shooting them. If they belong to you shouldnt be an issue, but again I'd get Dusty's advice if relevant to FCC.

I have read the manual and don't seem to understand what I am doing wrong. I have built 3 stations offset from each other by 1, then added a complex hub. Now I have the 3 stations sitting there and the complex hub doesn't seem to be attached either. I was trying to do this OOS.

hm, ok... still useful. When I deploy the stations and offset them does it automagically line up the nodes so I can just deploy the kit and be done with it? That would be phenomenal.

No ... it doesn't seem so ... as far as I recognized, FCC simply takes the rotation (x-, y- and z-axis) of the choosen station when building by offset.
If you want to build compact-complexes with tubes, there is still quite a lot of work to do ... especially bevause there is no source which shows the angles and positions of the nodes of a station ... at least, I don't know any.
Because of that, I started to replace complexes with compact-complexes without tubes (extra modded) by placing new stations with coords and moving them as near to the complex as possible.
I think, you can better plan you complex, because you've got a fix grid of 25 meters.
By buiilding with ofset, you can minimal move by 25 meters too, but the stations can get positions between 0 and 25 meters too. Can maybe be a kind of crap, if you want to reposition stations in your complex later.

Literally just saved my bacon! I placed my complex kit in a stupid place and blocked off my docking gantries!
Moved my stations away from it where necessary, no problem. Very intuitive.
Thank you very much

Should be working buts not.
I just downloaded a mod called Factory_Complex_Constructor_4.01_PLUS
Once i downloaded it, i used X Plugin Manager to install the mod.
The mod is listed as installed by X Plugin Manager. After i installed it i started up X3 TC to see if the mod is working. I built a few stations to see if the mod was installed. Sadly it didnt seem to be.
So i tried to install the mod with out X Plugin manager. I copyed the script to the script folder and copy the T folder contents to the T folder in Program files (x86) EGOSOFT X3 Terran Conflict. both said that the folders already contained the files i was trying to copy to them.
So im asuming that the Plugin manager did its work. So what im asking is there some way to active the mod that im missing? I did rename my pilot to "ThereShallBeWings". aside from that is there some thing im missing?

after changing your pilots name, did you save and reload your game.
most scripts and mods requires a modified save game to load, this load happens on game startup or load.
saving the game after enabling the script editor will mark the save game as modified so next time you load the game, the auto start scripts will start to function

PS. It is "Thereshallbewings", not "ThereShallBeWings". Your pilot name will not change, if you type it right.
