Yea, might have to do that, gee I got 3 shipyards, I guess I can browse through them and find a nice fast freighter to build for that jobeuclid wrote:Na, even worse with the latest version, ware containers with non-inventory items are left in space.
Maybe get a freighter every now and then to collect the remaining goodies? Uhh, and go sell your overload of missiles so the AutoLooter can fill you up with new shiny ones
Cheers Euclid
Hmm, it's a pity I cannot sell my missiles to my own shipyards...

euclid,
Great mod, one small request.
Can you have the menu to collect items re-trigger when you do a new scan and not just when you first go into Long Range Scan mode.
When doing active scanning, it would be nice if the mod rechecks for nearby loot every time a new scan is completed. This way one can stay in Long range scan mode and not have to keep exiting and re entering Long Range Scan mode just to trigger the Menu to collect loot.

Hi manpapper & GT500
@ manpapper: All my mod are on Nexus but you will find mods of my mods on other sites like the Steam Worskshop.
@ GT500: That was the original idea but unfortunately firing the LRS is not covered by any event and hence I cannot use it as a trigger.
Cheers Euclid

Ahh that it too bad about having no trigger to work from. May I make an adjusted suggestion with that new information in mind. Can you make a version of you mod that once you enter LRS mode, that it loops on a timer to check automatically every 5-10 seconds (or whatever time makes sense) for any loot near by?

Hi oliverjanda
Cheers Euclid
Nope, sorry, all my mod are on Nexus only so there are no conflicts when other players publish their mods of any of my mods.oliverjanda wrote: ....
Would you mind putting your mods in the steam workshop?
The range is 25km which is the radar range of the skunk. If you like to change that for your personal use then just replace the '25km' here:oliverjanda wrote: What's the distance of the looter? 25km or 50km? (I'd like to make it a bit smaller)
Code: Select all
<match_distance object="player.primaryship" max="25km"/>

Thx, found and changed the range.
More people would use your mods if they were available on steam. But that's your decision... I'm glad I found your mods.
Would it be possible to introduce a button for looting into the scanner sidebar? To make the looter (or even the autotrader, see YAT) activation more convenient.
Best

Hallo Abscondo
Es werden nur Munitionskisten und Inventarwaren eingesammelt. Wenn Du die Nachricht bekommst, dass Kisten nicht eingesammelt wurden, dann sind es entweder Waren die das Spielerschiff nicht transportieren kann, oder es handlet sich um Munition (Raketen) und Du hast schon zuviele davon.
Bitte ueberpruefe das mal und wenn es nicht daran liegt dan bitte schicke mir Dein gezipptes Savegame per Email.
@ oliverjanda: I am aware that there are some UI hacks out there but I prefer to wait for the developers to release an official tool/script command to include a custom sidebar menu.
Cheers Euclid

Thanks Yorrick
Edit:
My initial test was flawed because the drop must come from an asteroid and not from the crate. So I've added a field of nividum asteroids and stated shooting. All drops including the artefacts were collected without problems.
So, in short, I cannot reproduce the problem you have descibed.

I confirm, with 3.50 Beta 3 there was no problem, but with 3.50 RC1 it does not work.NightlinerSGS wrote:It appears the Autolooter has stopped working in 3.50 RC1, I'm not getting the prompt to collect everything anymore after activating the long range scanner.
Edit: It was working fine as of Beta 3 though.

To be more specific: It says "Auto Looter: No crates detected" in the logbook, but there are collectible crates floating right in front of my ship.dan92d wrote:I confirm, with 3.50 Beta 3 there was no problem, but with 3.50 RC1 it does not work.NightlinerSGS wrote:It appears the Autolooter has stopped working in 3.50 RC1, I'm not getting the prompt to collect everything anymore after activating the long range scanner.

Can you confirm this?
Thanks NightlinerSGS & dan92d
It seems the command
is not working anymore. If you substitute that by
then it works fine. As a workaround for now please just delete "_component" (4 times in EuclidsAutoLooterStart.xml). If this is intended rather than a bug then I'll upload a corrected version.
Cheers Euclid
It seems the command
Code: Select all
<find_object_component name="$targets" object="player.zone" class="class.drop" multiple="true" >
<match_distance object="player.primaryship" max="25km"/>
</find_object_component>
Code: Select all
<find_object name="$targets" class="class.drop" multiple="true" space="player.zone">
<match_distance object="player.primaryship" max="25km"/>
</find_object>
