[MD-Script] Enable Plots in Custom Start 2.0

Post by Ketraar » Sat, 11. Jul 09, 04:33

Enable Plots in Custom Start 2.0

English | Deutsch

With this files you can enable Plots in Custom Start. Mind though that the plots are set for a specific map and stations (that's why its disabled in this start anyway). If you are using an altered map, specially with rearranged sectors, you may encounter trouble and the plots will not work as they should.

Installation:
  • 1. Extract files in rar into X3TC root folder (override if asked)
    2. Start/load game using custom start
    3. change player name to addmesomeplots (check spelling). You get a message a few seconds later for confirmation.
    Note: if are updating from previous version skip step 3!
Once your notoriety is high enough (standard values) you'll be offered the Terran Plot in OL as usual and the others, given their conditions are met.

NOTE: Only use this when playing Custom Start. Remove/delete these files from the director folder if you want to play any other!

Kewl! Thanks.

There really should be a warning on the start.

Good, don't have to keep swinging around in the dark with that other topic, could also add in something like:
Change name to "startphqnow" to start the PHQ plot for those that don't want to wait. Using... dangit, misplaced the code. Think it was something like: <set_value name="HQ Plot" exact="1"/>
Edit, possibly this: <set_value name="HQ Start" exact="1"/>

This is cool, now all the people who get tricked by that shady "Custom Game" start can be safely redirected here.

Quick note, I have the missions enabled now and am playing the terran one starting in OL, I'm a few missions in now. When I entered OL again on the 2nd patrol mission I again get offered the "transport dignitrys" mission.

I'm guessing that after that first reload, when the scripts gets enabled, I should remove the director folder to stop the missions getting reset each time I reload?

Can you change your name back once the message is displayed?

This was reported in the German topic. I did not have the time yet to look into it, but you can either ignore the second one or repeat it, only the link mission will be double afaik.

I'll try to sort it out once I get some spare time.

@Litcube
Yes its safe to change your name back after the script is activated.

I'd guess the folder, where the 'X3TC.exe' is in.
