[MOD] MultiAssignment
Well, as the title says, SteamWorkshop now has this mod online
Allows easier assignment of multiple ships to a single commander entity (Pilot, Manager, ...).
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! I have not implemented anything to prevent assigning a ship to itself as commander. just make sure you don't do it, I don't what happens and I won't be responsible when you do Also, don't assign XL type ships to small fighter crafts, might be possible, don't know. You shouldn't have any problems though if you respect these issues
I know that the menu isn't the best, but it will definitely be more comfortable (and less talkative) than the default version. Only usable with my SidebarExtender Mod. If you run into difficulties with it, leave a message.
Get it here
EDIT: Ok, now you can not select a ship in the list as commander, and thanks to Tamina I know now that a Fulmekron protecting a Birog may not make sense, but is allowed in Vanilla and therefore should also pose no problem for this mod

Could you pop up a quick 1,2,3 list of how to assign the multiple fighters at once? All I got last night (though it was late and I may be missing something crucial) was add, pick a ship, assign, repeat x all fighters. Admittedly this is still a lot less annoying than egos version of fleet building

Thought the menu was kind of self explaining, maybe just for me then ok, so you obviously found the menu in info -> multiassign already. then 3 -> select ship -> 3 -> select ship -> [repeat]... -> 4 select commander. My idea was to add ships to the list until all wanted ships are shown. one could select the same ship in the add menu multiple times, but they're filtered out. Hope that helps a bit, if not I think I would have to make a video for that somehow ^^

That's what I tried, but it never selected more than one ship Will look again.
Edit :
Nm I was being a muppet Maybe you could tag each selected ship with a blackboard value to prevent relisting, and clear it when they are assigned to commander? In any case, along with GTAVC's no collisions mod this is gonna make fleets a MUCH happier experience, top job.

Why not adding cap ships to fighters?
Vanilla version allows it, so what happens when assigned with your mod?
Hope you are going to improve this to remove the bugs you already know

I'm sorry, but no. imho the vanilla subordinate-system is good enough. it did lack some comfortable features like MultiAssignment, but I personally didn't really miss anything... also, I've not been playing X recently (though this mod has been updated to v3b ). I'll definitely try out the new v3 when stable and when the DLC has been released. but, if you have some cool features you think would fit into this mod, tell me and I see if I've got the time and motivation to do sow.evans wrote:Dare I hope? The beginnings of a fleet management mod?
Nothing specific, really. I mostly miss Lucike's scripts from X3, although I do recognize that the scope of a project anywhere near close to what he managed would take a hell of a lot of work. The game had a lot of really good mods. Hopefully what the X-Rebirth landscape will look like in two years or so.
Played it to a point where I had race-themed fleets -- nowhere near optimal, but man, did they have character. (Of course that was after I tweaked my files to emphasize both strengths and weaknesses. So Split ships would be reckless-fast but run out of energy and break easily, can't remember what Boron ships had, better shielding? They looked purty. And each fleet fought differently.) Each fleet had operational bases for fuel and rearmament, all serviced by replenishment freighters, and everything ultimately fueled by a thoroughly vertically integrated industrial empire in an economy that worked (mostly. If you jump in fast enough. Although the fact that you could break the economy to the point that the game becomes unplayable is probably one of the things that impressed me the most about it.) I can, I guess, just pick up X3 again. Strangely hard to go back after playing X-Rebirth at the state that it's in though.
Sorry for the long OT. But, yeah, can't think of anything specific to suggest at the moment.

You mean something like the warelogistics software? hmm... I think someone already started that for Rebirth, don't know where I have seen it though. Might think about that, if I have motivation to handle some new menus and AI... but that would be a different mod as I think as it does not fit into a mod called "multiAssignment"
I checked again. Started a new game, only two extensions.
RC2 does not work.
There is a line error, but don't know to this extension it applies or not.

crap... yeah, you are right, mod was broken... I really forgot to upload the md with the new version... new version is up and running, tested myself with the uploaded version this time to make sure
ps: the message "addon 'detailmonitor' is missing the ego-prefix" can be quite ignored, so long as the files are still loaded via any other loaded file.

Hi Phipsz,
Would it be possible to select multiple ships at the same time rather than selecting each ship everytime to add to the list for the multiassignment?
ex: say if i buy 26 escort ship and with the long list of ships, will need to scroll all the way down(say if the ship name starts from "Z". so if we can straight away select multiple ship at the same time would be great, if its doable at all
thx
