Which "this" is that ?

If you mean the hub plots, yes they are v3.

If you put in one of the alternative plots after starting the plot, the existing mission is unaffected, but the next mission should be changed.

If you cant get past the existing mission, most people would then cheat in what they need so the plot can move on, then play with the reduced requirements they selected.

Just answered your pm.

For anyone reading, I think the issue is in the version of NPC Bail in the Salvage Pack.

If your using it, its worth updating NPC Bail.

Got a really stupid question, but I usually don't play long enough to ever get a carrier ship.

How on earth do you launch ships manually once you've got them docked? I used the beamdock commands to scoop up ships... but I can't seem to get them to leave the comfort of my carrier without an enemy nearby.

edit: ok well I got the salvage pack 2.4, that has a useful command for doing what I wanted.

Its silly that the vanilla command carrier scripts are so ... lacking.

apricotslice · Post by **apricotslice** » Mon, 24. Jan 11, 00:49

It depends what ships you are talking about.

Fighters can be commanded to leave if you access one of their command menus and broadcast to the rest docked, an give them an order to go somewhere or attack something.

Everything else has to be beamdocked off, since they wont fit through the docking port and thus cant actually get out by themselves.

Which is why I did the hotkey to dump all ships in to space. Gets tedious manually beamdocking off a lot of ships.

There are script packs out there for better carrier commands.

place hq.xml in your /types/ folder

You unzip the zip into TC main folder.

It puts the file in the correct place.

Patches get overriden by mod which get overriden by where this goes.

I seem to be insane as beamdock isn't cooperating with me and beaming aboard fighters to my Panther. 1K, 5K, 20K, doesn't seem to matter. Please tell me what I'm missing so I can feel like an idiot for not figuring it out in the first place

apricotslice · Post by **apricotslice** » Sun, 13. Feb 11, 04:49

What type of ship is a Panther ? If its an M7, beamdock isnt programmed to work from them.

Beamdock works from an M1, M2 (with modded in docking slots), TL, and TM.

There are some issues with the TM that I never figured out.

digdug83 · Post by **digdug83** » Sun, 13. Feb 11, 06:52

Yeah it's an M7. I sort of figured that might be the case when my TL had no issues using it. Is there a reason why M7's aren't included in the list?

apricotslice · Post by **apricotslice** » Sun, 13. Feb 11, 07:01

The original M7's only had 2 slots, and since I wasnt actually flying one much, I never bothered adding the code. Unfortunately the way the original code was written, adding a new base ship is long winded, and I never thought it worth the time to do. I added TM because it was a true carrier, and I added M2 because I fly a modified one all the time now.

How many slots does the Panther have ?

Hi.

I have read through most of the 36 pages on this topic....

I am having a bit of trouble with the PHQ. I can reverse engineer ships just fine, but when i repair them, it just gets added to the que and nothing happens. Also when I recycle ships, it gives me a message that says the reverse engineering que is empty and I dont get the resources.

Thirdly when I build a ship, it says I have zero percent of the resources needed even though i have some available. It also does not list any of the resources that i need to build any ship (I read that this may be normal).

Could you tell me what could be wrong or have I downloaded the wrong scripts??

apricotslice · Post by **apricotslice** » Mon, 28. Feb 11, 10:44

Exactly which phq zip did you download, and how did you install it ?

Also, was the PHQ built before or after you installed the mod ?

It has 32 as of v3.0. Most of the time though I'm hanging out in my Griffon which has 9 bays (she hits fewer ships

). There are 7 other ships in the class with bays; Shrike ( 8 ), Kariudo (7), Deimos (6), Cerberus (6), Astraeus Hauler (7), Akurei Hauler (7), and the Kariudo Hauler (7).

Adamdavidjacobson · Post by **Adamdavidjacobson** » Mon, 28. Feb 11, 11:02

Thanx for the quick reply.

I Installed it after I before I built the PHQ.

I used the following scripts...

X3TC-Apricot-AMS-Mod-v2.14
X3TC-Apricot-AMS-Mod-v2.14-HQ-Fix
X3TC-Apricot-Extended-PHQ-Patch-v4

I also added

X3TC-Apricot-PHQ-MO-in Boron-Shipyards
X3TC-Apricot-PHQ-Fix

So somewhere i probably used the wrong one or added one to many...

Im new to scripting and modding so I am a bit unsure here.....

You didnt need either of those.

In effect, you overwrote a file for the mod, with a file for the vanilla game.

Re-unzip the AMS fix file and that should fix it. But you will need to recreate the PHQ afterwards. Or go back to a save before you created it.

Adamdavidjacobson · Post by **Adamdavidjacobson** » Mon, 28. Feb 11, 11:31

That didnt work. All my PHQ can do now is spray paint ships..
