[SCR] The Galactic News System (BBS 2.0) (V.105)

[xuerebx]

It is there in my folder. What's the hotkey's name in the controls, and in which section is it? (game, interface etc)

So I can pinpoint it. Thanks.

[Trickmov]

"Connect to Galactic News Service" in Interface

Ah I found it! Thank you.

Update to version 1.05:

GNS v1.05

Change log:

v1.04:
- removed the beep when opening the menu - useful, when the GNS should be opened by another task instead of the hotkey

v1.05:
- fixed a critical bug, which could occur, when the player didn't open the GNS for a long time. More and more dynamic articles got added to a list, leading to a freeze and severe lagging, when the player didn't open it early enough. This never occured in the Vanilla-version, though - there are no such dynamic articles included.

Update to version 1.05

For the vanilla or XTC?

This update is for vanilla version / modder resource

Yeah, XTC had this version already for a longer time (since XTC 1.2 iirc) - we just forgot to update the Vanilla version

Thank you very much!:D

Lately in my game i get a message that Galatic news service currently unavailable, sorry for the inconvience.

Is something wrong?

[Derax]

It's normal for an "Unknownsector" I guess

[Rakeris]

When I first saw this I got all excited! But then I tried it and found out it doesn't include missions. What a bummer. =(
Such a pain to find missions in TC.

Will this work in AP?

[dblade]

Unless I misunderstood, I need to find other mods that leverage this resource? If so are there any recommended ones?

[TDKPS]

If I recall correctly, Pirate Guild, Yaki Armada, X-Tended Terran Conflict and XRM (the last two are complete overhauls) are some great mods that make use of this or at least something like it.

EDIT: Fixed something

[nankura]

is there a version for AP?

[Orfevs]

I don't suppose there's a way of measuring the political instabilities (or perhaps more correctly, tension between races) and generate news based on this?

Making a UNN "channel" sounds intruiging.

[nankura]

would this work in AP?

[ptb_ptb]

would this work in AP?

Yup. And it's in my list.

I've also recently gotten the "Galactic news system currently unavailable" thing, any idea what this is/how to fix it?
