[SCRIPT] Overtune BBS V1.50 : Updated 19/06/2006

[George Wills]

Phew yes its worked need 1.3mill to upgrade that sentinel phew do not have that much cash
OH weell

So i would vote its too expensive to upgrade oh well

Sell your M3 ship and buy some M5 and upgrades will start on around 20 000 cr.

[Reptilian1]

Hmm no do not think so i went thru hell and high to get that sentinel and it has got 2*125mw shields so i guess i will have to just put up with it doing only 73mph speed

thought about selling my2 percs might get about 400k each but decided against it

Hi Cycrow: It is posible to add the overtune script as a service from the Equipment docks, specifiying the how much overtune I want?

[Tritous]

if that is done then it should be a limited amount, maybe no more than double the ship speed...after that it's too dangerous and you have to resort to dodgy mechanics

if this is done tho the dodgy mechs would need to have their prices higher than the geniune thing....you konw what these space weeded mechs are like.

u mean like an upgrade you can buy that overtunes your ships ?

afaik there is no way to do it via a ware

Ok, so how can I change the price of the overtune? It is posible that I can select how much overtune I want for the ship? of course paying their respectevly price.

@Puruco»» at the moment it adds half the original max amount of tunings for each ship iirc.

you could change it so it is doubled or something.

»» i don't think it is possible to make it like the normal engine tunings

@Cycrow»» that just gave me an idea for an new update.

you could give the player a choice of upgrading with:

50% tunings (of original max tunings) -> with respective prices
75% tunings (of original max tunings) -> with respective prices
100% tunings (of original max tunings) -> with respective prices


cheers

Thanks Stevio...

theres no easy to to select how many tunings you want, u coudl do it via giving u various options on the BBS for differnet level of tunings, but other than that thers not much you can do.

the tunings it puts on is about 1/2 the max amount of the ship, but its random, so sometimes it will be more, sometimes it will be less.

if you want to change the price, you need to edit the quest script, the price is set in the "offer" event.

[Reptilian1]

Still think 1.3mil for the falcon sentinel bit much so i looked in the script and tried to rediuce it see if that works

[Reptilian1]

HAHA yes it worked just upgraded ship for about 20k

gone from 73to 87 not bad

[Cycrow]

well, the price is based on the cost of the ship.
setting it to a low price is more like cheating imo

[Reptilian1]

Strange when i use that create ship script it never seems to work but editing your formula seemed to work strange

[Thunder Child]

Header says it all...

[Cycrow]

u can overtune any ship you like

its just less likly to find it for the larger ships because of the number of stations u can dock at

otherthan that, its no differnet

[Tritous]

chances of tuning an m6 is equal...they can dock anywhere

[Cycrow]

Small updating adding more varied BBS texts

[A Team]

Just got a suggestion would you be able to add the option to overtune your cargo bay. Just a thought, so I don’t have to buy ecells as often in my nova.

[Tritous]

I can't remember if it's somewhere in this thread or in another one, but cargo upgrades can't be overtuned by script, it's a coded thing for each ship and would need a mod to do.

[Cycrow]

yeah tritous is correct, you dont have any control over the cargo bay via scripts
