I just read through 'Cmd.ShipTemplateOutfit.xml' and 'Lib.Cmd.Supply.xml'. It appears those commands weren't designed to handle wares that don't fall in the 'weapons', 'missiles', 'shield', 'tech' or 'energy' categories...

I'll wager that your TL is going off to buy ore because the cargo bay just isn't checked for wares not included in the categories above.

BUT : I have 0 experience with those commands as I never needed them and I'm afraid that only LU team members can give you a proper reply at this point.

With the mod do prices increase while buying and selling? I was selling ore and actually lost money even though I was selling at 150 and bought at 80, I think the price was going down as I was selling it thus making me lose money. Was real weird. In the base game the price is fixed once you start selling.

Once you start selling? That's a weird way of saying it.
The price is fixed per transaction, regardless of size of transaction. But it is always updated between transactions.

Sorry I know that wasn't phrased well,

I am docked at the station I am selling at, I am holding the left arrow key to empty my hull, it appeared that the price was fluctuating while I was holding that key down, as in going down every time another piece of ore entered the inventory of the station. I posted on reddit I think I need to use the sell all key? Because doing the transfer technically one by one was causing the price to change.

@JonRedcorn862

Maybe try using the 'home' and 'end' keys when buying/selling?

Well, what did you expect? If in real life you have 1000 stocks in hand and sell them one by one, the price will go up. But if you sell all your stocks in one time, you get a far better price. That's how supply and demand works.

Sorry if the wrong place but just installed LU and followed instructions all the way, and still got incorrect EXE.

I've read earlier posts saying this was normal -- just wanted to check if it still is and is the way to avoid it by doing -nosplash for target line?

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I've captured a few pirate astronauts. They're currently sitting in the hold of an Express that I have parked somewhere. How can I turn them into marines? I want to use my enemy's men against them!

Yes, I get that every time I run LU. No idea why but I have not noticed any issues.

Hey, going back to LU after a longer break.

Is there a map for music tracks used to every sector or how can I quickly check them manually so I can make my own adjustments?

How can I cap the number of combat tracks to 10 tracks only? Should deleting the unwanted ones do the trick?

Litcube · Post by **Litcube** » Tue, 5. Sep 17, 14:56

X, Y, Sector, Track

Code: Select all

This was a table of wrong information.

Sector tracks start with a 8 and are followed by 4 digits that represent the coordinates of the sector. For instance 80000 (x: 00, y: 00) is Kingdom End.

Combat tracks go from 01001 to to 01042. To reduce the number of combat musics, just repeat your tracks over these numbers (that's what I did, I have only 21 combat tracks, repeated twice).

Thaaank you, with this chart I'm over the hump :]

Joubarbe · Post by **Joubarbe** » Tue, 5. Sep 17, 17:34

This chart is not for LU

And please note that in vanilla LU, Sanctuary of Darkness (81304) has no track.

Another question: Is it possible to name fleets without changing the name of the fleet's commander? And will it ever be possible to break fleets up into subgroups such as BGs and squadrons?

Retchbeard · Post by **Retchbeard** » Wed, 6. Sep 17, 06:45

Hi there! So I've started to building up a military force (after entirely too long, but to be fair, Phanon kinda shat itself for several days). However, I'm having trouble managing them effectively. Right now, all I have is two corvettes (Shuri type... Terran or gtfo

). I want them, as a group, to patrol my home sector, Z Alpha. I've found a couple ways to do this, none of which do exactly what I want.

Method 1:
Use one of the corvettes to form a fleet, then add the other. Order the fleet to defend the sector. This seems to result in the whole group moving to the center of the sector and sitting there doing frak-all. I don't know what happens when enemies show up, because they are rare (I like to be prepared... And to have obscene amounts of firepower, but that's coming later), but I can't imagine them being very useful at the center of the sector.

Method 2:
Put both ships into a wing and tell the wing to defend a position. This does not do what it says on the tin. They basically go everywhere but the position I defined. Moreover, they fly around at half speed like there's no incoming pirate, xenon, phanon, and ocv invasion coming Soon™ .

Method 3:
Frak the grouping systems. Take one ship, tell it to defend the sector. Any other ships you want in the group, just tell them to escort the patroling ship. This does what I want, but if I want to build a group of 30 ships (of various sizes and types) it gets really tedious to do that, especially if I want more groups to guard more sectors.

Does anyone know of a better way to handle groups of ships? I'm not really familiar with it, especially in LU.

Side note:
I can't find the Patrol Command Software anywhere. I'm sure it could be useful for getting, say, a wing to do what I want. Anyone know what happened to it?

Side note 2:
I can't seem to get a wing to defend a specific object, only a position that they completely ignore.

Terran sectors are misplaced. It's from before you remapped them, I think.
