[SCRIPT] Mobile Mining / Mineral Collection Software v3.21 [UPDATED 26/8/07]

[viking42]

I have XTM 0.7A installed and i get the "text" error.
till now i haven't got it in any other script, is there a way to help me out?

[Bunny]

Did you place the numbered file in the t directory?

[viking42]

yes, only the x3scripts.dat i didn't know what to do with it so i put it on in the x3 root

[Bunny]

Are you getting a "Readtext" entry in the command menu or bogus messages in the player log?

Hold on, you just have installed:
XTM mod 0.7a
XTM scripts
Mobile mining script

right?

[viking42]

both in the command menu and in the player msg menu
makes it unplayable as i don't understand why they are not willing to mine

[Bunny]

Can you check that file 448950.xml is in the t folder?

(498950.xml is the German file)

[viking42]

not found in the T folder, all my installs are in English.
i found 449851 however

[Bunny]

So you have found 448950.xml in the t folder?

[viking42]

not found in the T folder, all my installs are in English.
i found 448951 however

no, as said above, it's not there
448950 is not in my T folder

[Bunny]

Okay, that is why the command is not showing up in the menu

>link removed<

Unzip it and in the t folder you will find 448950.xml - put this in the X3 t folder
Also copy the files in the script folder to the X3 script folder.

...then Bob should be your father's brother.

Cheers

Bunny

[viking42]

well, i have no text error anymore...

the option has disapeared.... is not anymore in the ingame orders list

[Bunny]

Next check:
The ship is fitted with special command software, ore collector and a mineral scanner?

Does it have a homebase? If so what type is it?

[viking42]

it's a demeter miner
special command software, ore collector and mineral scanner are in
no homebase set.

the same ship had the mining feature working before, only the text was quite unclear

[Bunny]

Check that setup.plugin.bms is in the scripts folder.
This file must contain code, it should not be empty

[viking42]

it is there and not empty

[Bunny]

Okay, here is the code that I found in it

Code: Select all

001   $ScriptVersion = get script version
002   set global variable: name='plugin.bms.ScriptVersion' value=$ScriptVersion
003   
004   $ScriptVersionSign =  read text: page=1517 id=0
005   $ScriptVersionSign =  string $ScriptVersionSign to integer
006   
007   if $ScriptVersion > $ScriptVersionSign
008    $PageID = 8950
009    load text: id=$PageID
010    set global variable: name='plugin.bms.text.id' value=$PageID
011   end
012   
013   $Cmd = COMMAND_BMS_COLLECT_MINERALS
014   
015   global script map: set: key=$Cmd, class=Ship, race=Player, script='plugin.bms.mainscript', prio=0
016   global script map: ignore: key=$Cmd, class=Fight drone, race=Player
017   set script command upgrade: command=$Cmd  upgrade=Spezialsoftware Mk1  script='plugin.bms.select'
018   
019   return null

I reckon line 007 is causing the bother here.
.....So....
Let's try the dev version instead
http://www.xai-corp.net/files/xaicorp/p ... .07DEV.zip

(or knock out lines 007 an 011 on the existing version instead)

[Lucike]

The code is correct.

Code: Select all

	<page id="8950" title="Mobile Mining / Mineral Collection Software" descr="">
		<t id="001">\033GBergbausoftware MK1\033X</t>

Code: Select all

004   $ScriptVersionSign =  read text: page=1517 id=0 
005   $ScriptVersionSign =  string $ScriptVersionSign to integer 

If 1517,0 doesn't exist then $ScriptVersionSign = 0 and 8950 is loaded.

@viking42

Is the script editor activated?

Check you script and t folder again:

hi,

I installed the new zip you gave,

I then schecked if all the line are existing in the scripts and T folder and they are

i erases 498951 and 448951 because they where still there

I tiped again the "thereshallbewings" (without lockup)

I reloaded the.spk file provide with the first version of this script

And it works!!! unfortunately we now don't know what the issue was

[viking42]

i made a reinstall because some unknown txt messages still bothered me
i made multiple tests with and without the mining scripts last version you gave me
and i can make it official:

-This script is not unstable with XTM 0.7
-This script needs a clear .SPK

[Bunny]

What messages are you getting?

It has been running for the past week on my XTM 0.7 game - what is the nature of the instability?

BTW - This script is getting tested on devnet http://forum.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=182230
