XTC 2.0 - Script Combatibility List - Reports from players

[DrBullwinkle]

Scripts and mods are entirely different things.

Mod incompatibilities are common.

Script incompatibilities are rare.

For example, everything on Bullwinkle's List should be compatible except for the current version of Abandoned Ship Spawner. The next version of A.S.S. will be compatible with mods, as well.

It would be easier to list which scripts are *not* compatible. There would be a *very* short list (most of which would be easy to fix).

Anyone managed to get scorp map working with xtc 2.0?

You have a good point there . The script mod list is endless .
But its also a good feedback on what scripts are more popular and get monitored & updated from the authors .
I , for example , have bookmarked such pages to get me started after a long absence , so I can all the essential scripts& links on one page .

I 'll update thread for your script list & add the A.S.S. info .
Thank you for helping

Anyone managed to get scorp map working with xtc 2.0?

Yes: maps

The problem with maps Scorpa action, the result of errors in the 7211-L044.xml. (I hope they were not intended).

fixed file can be downloaded here: 7211-L044.
Extract the file to a directory on t.

NOTE: To map Scorpa work, you may be required to start a new game.

@Yacek

Thanks for the file, map is working now, though i had to start all over again but needless to say scorp map is worth the sacrifice.

Is bounce working with XTC?

Is bounce working with XTC?

So far it is with me, I did have to generate a new T file for it since a few things were changed from 1.2 to 2.0

[Snowship]

Anyone know what specifically conflicts XTC with CAG?

It's the one script I can't live without (well if I use stations)

There's a fix for that on the XTC forums.

So i might take back what i said about bounce. lately ive been dealing with khaak and xenon invasions and i always lock up. I disabled bounce a bit ago and i was able to fight a khaak fight for a few hours strait without locking up at all.

Maybe i generated the file wrong, maybe theres a gremlin messing with me, i dunno. Has anyone else had luck with it during big scalled invasions?

Hephaistos Corp almosts works - just needs the ship spawned by the script to be edited to one in the game.

I generated my own wall file. I'll cheat a bunch of khaak and xenon and see what happens? Not far enough in so far to encounter them normally.

** I tried this and no crashes

There is actually already mod-compatible code included in the Hephaistos Corp delivery script that makes sure to pick an available TL class ship. So, unless XTC hasn't any TL class ships at all, this part of the script should work already.

The real problem with Hephaistos Corp and XTC however are the new stations added by XTC. There are no station sizes included for these. So the Hephaistos Corp won't be able to build these stations properly.

I still haven't had my stations delivered though

[X2-Illuminatus]

And you are sure that it has something to do with the created ships? What ship type is created instead of the TLs? Or do TL ships have a different purpose in the XTC?

[The_Mess]

There's a couple of "undefined ship" entries that are classed as TL in tships but are broke in certain ways, so I suspect the script is accidentally creating them instead of functioning TL ships.

Should be easy to fix by locking create ship to atmo-lifter that the XTC team made the terran's sole TL though and I might try doing it myself as I'm wanting to alter loot drop mechanisms in the x-tended mod

[Edit] - that was easy, haven't removed the code for making other TL's because I'm a scripting n00b (and sleep deprived...)

Just changed it from Kobe to Atmospheric Lifter, should work, I think.

And love the script too Makes life a lot easier.

Ok, thanks for testing it. I'll have to do some more testing when i can. I think the ship i was having a problem is a Taipan. Ill have to look in game to make sure, but i know it was a M7 and Split ship, going againts a kha'ak M2.


@The_Mess Thanks for that! I have to redo some sectors due to my split brothers crashing into some things ive build if im IS. I end up going from rank 8 to -2 in a second if im IS and they try to dock. Should help alot!

Let me know if it works, I need to reset the script due to it being stuck at delivering a jump beacon, should have checked that before /derp

Edit: the other thing the script is tripping up on is jump beacons, so make sure to build your complex within 20km of a gate, or use the in game script editor to change the max distance value which the script uses to decide if it will build a jump beacon.

Edit2 - checked that the script's referencing the right Tship entry for the jump beacon and it looks okay, not sure exactly _why_ the jump beacon hasn't been dropped off

Also Tships contains well over 10+ undefined entries classed as TL O_o

Right, there's no check, if the ship selected as TL is used by the AI or if it is sold at any shipyard. I'll add a check like that. Thanks for the information.
