what du you mean by use "yours" ^^?
sry my english isnt the best.
Do you have simply changed docking slots from 0 to 1 in t-ships ?
i cant believe that ^^
if i have to install your mod after my modded 03.cat, everything will be overwritten correct ? np, but takes some time =(
thx for your patience !

"Yours", meaning the Tships file you edited. This will overwrite it. Your English is better than a lot of Americans I know.what du you mean by use "yours" ^^?

Yes, that's exactly what is in the TShips in this mod. No other edits were made, such as balance, cargo, etc. Only docking slots were modified.Do you have simply changed docking slots from 0 to 1 in t-ships ?

If/when Steam gets it available, I can check it out. I do think it changed some things in TShips though, so that'd require a revamped version for the docking mod...
I suppose, if anyone has the mod manager, they can extract the 1.3 Tships file from the patch cat (it'll be the one in the most recently updated cat/dat) and get it to me.
Editing it doesn't take that long, it's just *getting* it.

Yep, I can do that. I downloaded it tonight to see if I could get a dock working on an Agamemnon. And I couldn't Anyway if you want to pm me your email I'll send you the 1.3 tships
First time I've tried anything like this but... I followed Northstar's tutorial on creating a mod, and created a mod. yay! and put into it the types\tships.pck from 1.3, and edited the agamemnon docking slots to = 1
Then I added the following files from your external docking.cat:
types\dummies.pck
objects\ships\m7\paranid_m7s_scene.pbd
objects\ships\props\extern_fighter_dock.pbd
Anyway the game runs and my pc hasn't blown up so it can't be all bad. The Agamemnon has the little docking ridge on it now, and when I comm it there is an option to request docking, but it's greyed out. Still I'm quite impressed I got that far

Well, what I meant was, the 1.3 version of Tships, after it's been edited for this mod, can be dropped into the \types folder.
Just putting the one from the cat into the folder won't do anything different.
That said, I got your email (and a PM from TSM). I'll try to get it updated for the mod during half time.

Yeah that's what I thought you meant
I ditched my first attempt, put your mod back in, dropped in the 1.3 tships.txt into \types folder AND changed docking slots = 1 for the agamemnon. So now I can dock and the game is using the new tships file.
Course, I shall reinstall your proper version when you post it and since I seem to be starting a new game every couple of days anyway it doesn't much matter in the meantime... just a temporary fix
