Unfortunately they are add ons, you can only use vanilla wares, I may look into giving mini scripts to add those wares to the list.

No activating the Als only effects HQs and SYs, you can always use at Equipment Docks (EDs) and Trading Docks (TDs)

I have a problem: once I try to upgrade the rudders and engines of a docked ship in my ED, the game hangs. I can't ALT+TAB or open the task manager or shut windows down using the power button.

I'm on a terran m3 in sector. The ship to upgrade is a terran m4 docked in the ED, I used the ship's secondary commands. First I install the upgrades (triplex and such) and then I tried to tweak the engines and rudder.

And... I'm not in the mood to try to update another ship today or dock and upgrade it manually.

How many times has this happened?

cloppy007 · Post by **cloppy007** » Fri, 4. May 07, 01:07

2 or 3.

Hmm weird, it could take a long long time to figure out why though, to be honest, it is one of those things that unless I am on your computer it is almost impossible to figure out, I get system lockups sometimes, often caused by infintie loops, but considering I haven't found any yet with the DUM version, I doubt it is that, it sounds like some deeper coding, maybe running on a non existant entity, I havn't put any safe gaurds in yet against those.

Simply select "Dock Upgrade Manager" from the commands list

I am having trouble with this part. I set the hot keys and I can get the message for purchased licenses. But when I go to my Equipment Dock's commands list I don't have this option. I tried to uninstall the Dock upgrade Manager and I redownloaded and reinstalled it via Cycrow's script installer. But still no command line on my ED to start purchasing licenses.

Any idea's on what I might be doing wrong?

Script's running all with Cycrow's script installer:
AdvancedJumpdrive-V1.50
Dock_Upgrade_Manager3-046
Factory_Complex_Constructor_X3_305
Kha'ak Cluster Commands 1.40
NividiumMines-V1.00
ring_of_fire
SatelliteDeploy-v1.12
SectorTakeover_v243
upgrade_lasertowers
x3_bonus_package_3.1.05

Not sure if I installed this yet but I plan to:
PlayerOwnedShipyards1-050

My plan is to take over the main original Pirate dominated space and Xenon Sector 101. Then become totally self sufficient within my own territory. Maybe have a ring of fire guarding all the gates that exit my territory.

Can you tell me which option you do have on the command console?

kris4564 · Post by **kris4564** » Fri, 4. May 07, 15:52

Unfortunately, I am at work right now but I will tell you tonight when I can double check. I can't remember off the top of my head.

I think it's like this:
1 None
2 Auto money transfer to player account
3 station upgrade: when selected It then says station upgrade: add ship
4 ?
5 ?
6 ?

Ok well when you get home just send me a zip file of all the t files you have installed

kris4564 · Post by **kris4564** » Sat, 5. May 07, 05:05

Well the Email I sent was returned to me as undelivered. I sent it from aol.com to the email listed in your profile. So Idontknow

I'll send it again Monday from work were I have an outlook account set up.

The good new is I'm home all weekend to mess around with this. I'll let you know if I can find out any more.

So any hoot
Command line 1 selected
then my options are as such:

1 "None"
2 "Auto money transfer to player account"
3 "Station Manager: Automate"
when command line 1 selected again It says "Station Manager: add ship"
4 "Add or remove ware"
5 "Set ware storage space" Unselectable
"6 Trader Barrier" (Commercial Agent)

Script's running with Cycrow's script installer:

AdvancedJumpdrive-V1.50

Kha'ak Cluster Commands 1.40
NividiumMines-V1.00

Stevio Weapons Dealer2.10 (for the Kyons)

x3_bonus_package_3.1.05

Off topic

I've also just discovered problems with Factory Complex Constructor 3.05 but I'll post there about that little fatal error.
B.T.W. Not to toot my own horn or any thing but I would like to think I was a great help to seveio in testing his final release of Stevio Weapons Dealer 2.10 he has not released a new version since

Shovinus · Post by **Shovinus** » Sat, 5. May 07, 08:37

I got the email from you so I don't know why it said I hadn't

EDIT : I also don't know why you are having problems, I thought maybe a script was using the same command slot but here it says mine is the only one using that command slot.

I am having the same problem. I'm not sure what started it, but I notice now that the "dock upgrade manager" command, which used to be available under the Station Commands menu, is not longer available. Uninstalling and reinstalling the mod doesn't change it. Using older save games doesn't change it. If I use the "Install Station Software" command it indicated the mod is already installed - I couldn't purchase it again. Also, if I buy a new equipment dock and install the software, the new station still doesn't list the dock upgrade manager command.

I am able to manually upgrade my ships, and also manually upgrade rudder and engines, but I cannot get to the menu where I can change the settings that dictate what ship extensions are installed, and whether or not docking ships are automatically upgraded, and other options. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

The only other thing I am running is the mercenary's guild mod.

UPDATED

3.048
->Fixed DUM disappearing from station command console

This should fix the problem please tell me if it doesn't

kris4564 · Post by **kris4564** » Sun, 6. May 07, 18:48

I just tried starting a new game and the ED command line is working fine now

I should have tried that in the first place but that of corse was not my first choice either.

I see you have been busy

Sorry for the delay getting back to ya. So, should I still download this new version. I have the DUM now and I can't go back to my old save I had to start over. (That FCC)

Shovinus · Post by **Shovinus** » Sun, 6. May 07, 18:49

Yes you should, because next time you save and load on your new game it will have gone again

kris4564 · Post by **kris4564** » Sun, 6. May 07, 19:40

FCC uninstalled

@ Shovinus
Thanks for all your help I'll try the new version now, hope it all work.

kris4564 · Post by **kris4564** » Sun, 6. May 07, 22:19

Seams to be working fine. I plopped down an Equipment dock and bout a few licenses. Then saved the game and exited out, loaded the game back up and checked for the command, the DUM command popped up in about a second. I can finally build and upgrade my own ships

Now if I can just find that Kyon Factory.

It appears that this excellent script, conflicts with an older one, the Terracorps Combat Pilots script. Installing DUM removes two commands in the Additional Ship Commands part, "combat pilot report" and "Task force report".

Not sure how you guys are going to settle that. Just wanted you to know.
