[SCR][UPD: 26.06.09] V 1.0 Automatic Money Transfer to Station

[XGamer]

This Script is the Opposite to the Default Command Auto Money transfer to Player account.
After it has been installed it adds a new Command "Automatic Moneytransfer to Station" to every playerowned Station.
With this Command its possible to keep a Stations Credits over a certain value.

Installation:
1. Download and extract the Rar File into the X3 Terran Conflict Root Directory.
2. Run the game.
3. If you didnt have any Scripts or MD Files active in your game before activate the Scripteditor
4. Choose a Station and run the Command (see How to use below)
5. Give Feedback here
6. Have Fun

How to use it:
Once you run this command on one of your Stations you will be asked to select the Station that should receive money from the Station that is running the Command. If you select the same Station that you just started the Command on this Station will receive money from your Players Account. Otherwise the Station you select here will get the Money from the Station that is running the Command.
Next you have to enter the amount of Credits that should always be present on the Station you just selected.
Finally you have to enter how many Credits the Station that is running the Command should always keep for itself. Or (incase the Station running the command is the one that receives the money) how much Credits you want to keep on your own Account. This is so that the Station or you can still buy Upgrades or Ressources. Note that any input below 50,000 Credits in this last Step is ignored (and the Default of 50,000 is used instead)

Once all this is done the Credits of the Targetstation are checked every minute and if below the value you entered in Step 2 will receive Credits up to that amount. If for some reason there is not enough money available to fill up the other Station you will get a message saying so and the command will stop, so that you/the Station can earn some money again. You have to start the Command again in order to start the moneytransfer again.

If you have a self sufficient Complex producing lots of money you can in theory supply up to 10 different Stations with credits. Just start the Command multiple times on the rich station

Ah, I figured it out. Thanks.. Didn't realize at first I had to enter that code next to the download link at the bottom.

Thanks for the reply!

Anybody willing to share a copy of this? I reckon it'd be phenomenally useful.

Mind you, I've always thought the idea of having seperate budgets for stations just seems ludicrous to begin with. Sector Traders don't need it, and countless other automated functions(like ships buying e-cells or restocking missiles) just uses your empire's bank account, thanks to the joys of modern technology and data transfer etc.

Wonder what ever possessed Egosoft to code stations in such a prehistoric fashion? And why they never changed it after X2?

I could use a copy of this mod as well. I found it quite useful a while back, but have had some computer difficulties since then and I apparently didn't keep a copy of it or misplaced it, so if I can't get a working download link I'll have to see if I can extract the mod files from the X3 directory on my old hard drive, assuming that's possible.

This script does the same thing plus a lot more. So if no one has a copy for you then this is a great alternative.
