[MOD/Script] LI Production Modules (PM) - v7.2 29/08/2010

I'd just have to say, this mod completely blows me away by how much is available.
Personally, I'd love to see versions of this that would integrate with the XTC and DDTC mods.
The problem with integrating with DDTC would actually be the modified HQ, since DDTC uses the stock Egosoft HQ for the features and such. But then, if this is that much better than the stock HQ, I'd go for this, for sure.
DDTC uses Pelador's DAD mod and adds a ton of ships and a little over a dozen stations to the game, not to mention a lot of extra AI scripting, that enhances the gameplay and allows for varied difficulties. If this could be made to work with DDTC, I'd love to use it during my gametime.

If you use the script on it's own it should work with any mod.Brian5001 wrote:I'd just have to say, this mod completely blows me away by how much is available.

Been having a bit of trouble with this. Not sure if i'm doing something wrong or maybe because i'm using the mac version of TC.
I can get complexes from the LI mod stations and set them up no problem. But I can't figure out how to get TL's and M1's to work. Is there an upgrade somewhere to buy? I tried installing the Supply Command software and loading an LI - Production Complex onto an Argon Mammoth but it just carries it around for placement. I was really looking forward to a mobile base as I just found an Aran with the UFJD!

Figured it out. Needed a working version of the Community Configuration Script. I was using 1.20 (no menu came up) but found a copy of 1.30 in zip form here http://forum.egosoft.de/viewtopic.php?t ... highlight=
Can't unpack 1.40 on the mac

Okay, two important questions:
Is it possible to create self-sufficient loops using the PMs within one closed complex (or TL/M1 for that matter) and if so, can you or someone else possibly write a guide on how to do that?
Second, I currently have only the script version of this installed and when deployed as a station, I get an "invisible" station. I suppose I need the LI-Mod for it to come up as a full-fledged station. Thing is, I run XTra-Ship-/Stationpack with Litcubes Saturn Compley Hub and I wouldn't want to miss out any of them. If someone could give me a detailed description on how I merge those mods together (mostly just how I do implement the relevant LI-Mod data into the already merged XTra-.cat) so I could enjoy the full benefits, I'd be really grateful.
Thank you

edit://
I have already extracted both the TDocks.txt and the hq.xml ... but from here on I am clueless. I know I am to implement them into my last number .cat, but I don't know whether I just need to copy paste it, possibly overwrite existing data and/or where exactly to put the stuff in.
Any help would be appreciated.

Trying to get this to work on a TL for the first time.
Er.
The AL plugin is running, the stations showed up everywhere, but when I try to add my TL to the list of ships in the PM options menu, under the TL header, when I press add, I just get a completely blank window that doesn't let me do anything.
Where did I go wrong? D:
EDIT: Got it. There seems to be a bug. I got a second TL and now the FIRST showed up on the list. Looks like the latest TL can't be added. Not sure about M1 yet, don't have one.

I'm running this mod with SRM and I have 2 "types" of Production Complexes.
One is "LI - Production Complex", the other "LI Production Complex".
Both of these station types are in the LI_MODv7.cat file, so I assume it's not a problem with SRM (it integrates MPM). Only difference is that the dash one is a SG_DOCK_EQUIP and the other, a SG_DOCK_HQ (perhaps a fix to prevent player from receiving blueprint offers?)
I've tested the M(edium) version of both of these types.
The one with the dash is sold at the created shipyards, but when deployed, it has no storage space (0/0). The one without a dash isn't available at any dock, but when deployed, it has the correct storage space (40m for medium). Apart from the space, they share the same model/behavior/etc (the one with the dash might not have a collision model if there is such a thing, saw a few TS run into it while heading for the other no-dash one).
The one without a dash is the "default" Medium/Large Production Complex in the PM Options menu (110), the one with the dash needs to be added (119).
The plugin.PM.Dock.Install loads id 300038-300054 from the 9913 file which are the dash ones, but that text file also contains references to the no-dash ones, 300020-300036.
Is the 0 storage space working as intended?
Why duplicates?
PS: I salvaged a XL SPP at the 0-space dock, and ended up with 4500ish space, approx. the space of the salvaged components.
EDIT: Re-tested later, and I now have a dash station up with it's 40m storage space. Weird.
