I don't suppose this is going to be updated for AP?
Love the script for the auto-drive feature.

I just installed AHD, started a new game, and cheated myself a Quantum Hyperbolic Drive and some energy cells, and commenced zipping around with no problems whatsoever. I used the non-EMP version, if that matters.Predator02 wrote:As a note, this is not compatible with AP. Game won't load when it's active.
this should do the job, drop it in the t folder, let me know it works ok, plus open and close the manager after deleting the twaret in the types, the manager will generate a new one when you close it.

Okay so I downloaded your xml fix, installed AHD using Cycrow's latest plugin manager. Dragged your file into the "t" folder and replaced. Deleted TWareT.txt in the "types" folder which was replaced when the Plugin Manager was closed. But upon loading a new game, I get the incoming message tone which keeps repeating like a sonar and my game freezes.garrry34 wrote:this should do the job, drop it in the t folder, let me know it works ok, plus open and close the manager after deleting the twaret in the types, the manager will generate a new one when you close it.

On the first post of thisopic, it mentions that the Community Plugins Configuration spk must also be installed, but upon searching that topic, it doesn't look like it has been updated for AP yet. Could that be what's causing the problem? I tried the same method of installation for both the EMP and Non-EMP friendly versions of AHD.
Thanks for the help, I'm sure your fix is fine, it's just me.

Alright, I've installed the Community Plugin again with the EMP friendly ADH. I don't get any freezes or crashes anymore, but I get two messages telling me to check two different xml files in the "t" folder. I also don't get any of the advanced hyperdrive components available to purchase. You said it worked for you so what am I doing wrong?garrry34 wrote:ive installed the community plugin, haven't noticed anything...

Just unzip this and install the SPK. The zip contains both the EMP friendly and emp reliant one.

Russbo - I got this to work, the non emp I think... cant remember but this and MARS are my main script/mods I use. I couldn't understand why a star ship would need E-Cells to make a jump when they have an advanced reactor on-bored. I want to try DAD but dunno if it would trash my current AP game.

They are supposed to cost less; I recently tried to revive this script on my latest Albion Prelude game, and discovered that the package manager is ignoring the modified costs in AHD's TWareT file. Even more annoyingly, using X3 Editor 2 to edit the TWareT.pck the package manager generates only works until the next time the package manager closes, as it overwrites the modified values again.Cobra-knight wrote:How much are the wares meant to cost in game?
In mine they cost:
Quantum Hyperbolic Drive: 54,228,224
Singularity projector: 188,877,700
Slope Tension Converter: 62,022,316
Is this right? I can remember them being a lot cheaper in X2
The problems don't stop there, though, as hyperjumping will occasionally fail with no explanation (some investigation discovered the "use jump drive" script command is failing, but I have no idea how to tell what value it's returning, since it's sure not [TRUE] or [FALSE]), and the sound effects aren't working. On the plus side, ignoring sounds and the still-outdated requirement for an Ecliptic Projector, the Quantum Drive works fine. Has anybody else worked on updating this script, or am I going to have to re-learn MSCI (which I haven't really messed with since X2)?
EDIT: After some further testing (and a quick MSCI refresher), I've determined that the "use jump drive" command is returning FLRET_ERROR for certain targets (like Trans-Orbital Accelerators, if you turn on the "Hyperjump through warpgates" option) and sectors (Unknown Sectors, it seems, except the Hub is perfectly fine despite also being labeled an "Unknown Sector"). Not quite sure what the deal is there, nor how to fix it. Besides leaving "Hyperjump through warpgates" off, of course, but that doesn't fix certain sectors just not being jumpable for whatever reason.
Also, it seems the addons/s/ folder is completely ignored, but putting the sounds in the base TC /s/ folder made them work fine, so that's good. This is actually mostly-working, now. Shock, amazement.
EDIT2: I seemed to recall some non-Unknown Sectors not working, but I couldn't think of an example before. Well, I just tried jumping to Saturn, but it was a no-go. Seems really random to just refuse to jump to certain sectors...
