great mod, loving my new mule and hyper, but im having a problem with the "beam in astronaut" hotkey. everytime i load a saved game it adds an extra hotkey, now i have a total of 16 "beam in astronaut" hotkeys.
i reinstalled the game with latest patch(1.4) and plugin manager(beta 6) but still have the same problem

Ok thanks, I get it
Didn't know you disliked the b-word, my bad. Anyways, I'd love to use your gunbus, but I don't want it handed to me. I'd like it to be something that I have to work for - in other words, it should be in a shipyard at a price that reflects the power of the thing. Does it already work like that / can it be arranged that way?
Again, thank you

The 8686 files is AMS.
If whitestar is using 0001 then someone needs to point out just how bad an idea that is, and it violates basic modding theory.
Yes, you need both language files and the scripts that load them into the script editor.
You should create a new directory, create separate mod directories, extract both mods into their directory. Then copy what isnt duplicated into a new directory for the new mod itself. Then edit the whitestar tships and copy the last line in it. Edit the AMS tships and paste the whitestar on the end of the file, and add 1 to the ships counter at the top of the file. Save into the new mod directory. Check using Xeditor to make sure the file is ok. Then use modmanager to create a new cat/dat file and add everything back in its correct directory. Very easy once you've done it a few times, but mystifying the first time I know.
Edit : I've pmed the whitestar author about changing the language file. In the meantime, I do not recommend trying to use that mod with anything else until the language file issue is addressed. For example, if his language file is 1.3, and you are using 1.4, then his file overwrites the entire 1.4 update. This is NOT good.

Hi apricotslice,
Can't figure this out
I used whitestar's latest version (1.27) which has the new language file (7555-L044)
I followed your instructions. Copied everything that isnt duplicated into the new mod directory.Copied the last line of whitestar's tships and pasted on AMS's tships end of file, also added 1 to the ships counter (total=380). Saved to new mod directory and made sure file was ok with Xeditor. Then used modmanager to create a new cat/dat file (named it Apricot.Whitestar 1.27)and added everything back.
When I start either a new game or saved, it still has the apricot bus in Great Reef's shipyard. If I remove the bus from tships then it has the camel in Great Reef's shipyard. If I install whitestar before your apricot ships then whitestar is in Great Reef and Argon shipyards, but prices, guns, etc. is out of whack for both type of ships. I knew something like this might happen as your Modding 101 pointed out, but I thought I'd give it a try anyways. This is my first time, I'm learning as I go
Oh, I installed whitestar's script by XPluginManager and I also tried by extracting the script and installing directly to game's script folder, but no luck. Am I missing something or is it something else.
Either mod by itself works like it should....AWESOME....love em both.

Plugin Manager for TC doesnt do ships yet.
When you add a ship to the tships file, you MUST add it on the end of the file. Then in the add ship to shipyard script, it needs to be edited to select the right ship. At a guess, either the ship isnt on the end, or you have not updated the shipyard script.
If you cant get it going, send me what you did and the latest version of Whitestar and let me have a look.
