one more thing, shouldnt we gain rep. if we claim a sector for an ally?

As i feared, this is a glitch within the actual script engine, its going to take some trial and error to rectify...

Are you running any major mods? if not could you upload your savegame somewhere please

right now only IR, Numeric Race Rank Titles from Gazz, Community Pplugin Configuration, Hotkey Manager, Ware Manager and the Bonus Pack.
I was vanilla before i've installed IR.

add an option to add some e-cells to ordered ships (at elast 50-100) as sometimes it takes a long time to get that thing to a SPP.... Like a user-friendly fit-and-go jumpdrive kit only availible this weekend or something...

One more thing (dunno if it happens only at my game),
if a race takes over a sector (and Econamy Booster is activated) stations are created which belong to a different race then the owners - shouldnt they belong to the owners race?

What are you using to tell you if they are a diffrent race?

If you mean by actual station type - as in the argon built a teladi flower farm, thats normal ... the booster trys to fill in the holes in the area

the first letter of the Stations ID tells me which race owns the station
actually at my game yaki are enemies of paranids.
after the yaki took over a sector the game spawned a few paranid owned stations which makes no sense.

I think whats happening is that a local paranid shipyard send out its own EcoTL because it detected that the sector was low on stations while it was under Yaki attack, ill add a check to ensure that shipyards dont send EcoTL's to sectors that are under siege in the next version

are yaki and pirates going to have their own infrastructure as little "byproduct" from the Econamy Booster ?

i guess so, it probably wont be very effective, unless the eco booster manages to run on every pirate sector

Can you add a way to turn of this plugin in the AL menu. Whenever I try to turn it off all it does is take me to the IR menu.

Thank
Jack

It cant be turned off in this mannor.

The plugin by default is in its off state, it will not do anything, You can turn components of the plugin on and off via the menu. With everything disabled, consider that off

There will be an universe cleaner avalible in the next few updates.

Khaak captured Cathedral of Xarr, I have destroyed the station and with the help of Imptroved races telling me location of scouts, destroyed the Khaak, When activating the IR menu it said I need a station. Built and ore mine it is full of energy and full of ore. IR says I should be asked soon to take over sector, I never get this prompt to take over Cathedrall of xarr, I have left and came back to sector, saved and reloaded, fast foward the time. Still no option (that I see ) to take over sector. Using the IR menu it still says ..You should be asked within a few min. .. This is while I am in Cathedral of xarr. There is no longer any requirements listed, such as build a station or location of an enemy, no other stations is in sector.

Any ideas?

two quick questions :

yaki as improved race was adviced not to use in orginal IR scripts,
can it now be used in this script ?

orginal IR script needed support scripts installed to work (AP library or something?). This script does not need that ?

thanks in advance,

qwizzie

Yaki are using normal logic now.

IR2.0 Was rewritten from the ground up, the install instructions do not mention a library, therefor, it does not need a library

I had the same issue with IR, I just gave up on it and dropped it, it just seems to 'happen' sometimes.

Jack08 · Post by **Jack08** » Thu, 15. Mar 12, 20:07

Well then its time to pick it back up again

Remove the old version of IR from your game (Clean Universe, Save, Uninstall)

and install the new version http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=319529 rewritten from the ground up

To claim a sector in the new version, make sure you bind the IR Comm System Hotkey, Press it and then hit "Claim Sector"

Thank you I will give that a try. Should this work with Pirate guild and Yaki amada?

Sector takeover scripts seem to always have real problems when taking over the AP war sectors, even with mods that disable it such as XRM.

Even when circle of labor was completely empty for over an hour it was never taken. Do you know if there are any problems with these argon/terran war sectors with 2.0?
