Problem continues, having followed your instructions twice on two different carriers. Sent you a PM.

Those scripts should not conflict with ACC.

Oki, answered and now waiting for your savegame. Thanks

Annex · Post by **Annex** » Tue, 8. Aug 06, 02:43

Save file sent. Hopefully ~7Mb going through email wont bounce

Serial Kicked · Post by **Serial Kicked** » Tue, 8. Aug 06, 03:01

It didn't

I just received the file succesfully. I will give it a look asap to see what is going on.

Cheers.

It's definitively weird. No rogue script, no visible conflict, no bug due to a install of a previous ACC version, but yes shields don't autorepair when you dock your ships as they should (at least as they do in my game). I'll update the script (probably tomorrow) to restore the shield when ships are docked.

Well atleast I know im not going insane! Thanks a ton for looking at this, your script is extremely useful

Serial Kicked · Post by **Serial Kicked** » Wed, 9. Aug 06, 10:33

v1.36 Released !

This version should correct the weird bug Annex is experiencing with the shields. However, already damaged fighters will not be repaired until they are used by ACC.

By the way, the "Set Homebase" command has been replaced by a menu called "Homebase Settings" (like the Battle Tactics menu). It allows you to set/unset the homebase for different class of docked ships.

Cheers.

just wondering why the script sends blank messages to the message log.
This is usually after i issue some sort of carrier command , like clear sector etc

i say blank thats not true they sometimes have like 1 or 2 etc but nothing else .

Im also assuming the auto pilot engage thing (and ship stopping engines) ,when an order is issued , is also built in and not a bug of the script

either way , your script does make controlling 40 fighters from a carrier much easier .(havent decided what the other 20 slots left on carrier will be filled with yet )

a thought i had since i carry nova vanguards and raiders plus a few disco's , a recon command eg fast ships (M5's M4's ) are sent out all over the sector , they go out and scout the sector ,

or a sector patrol command , much like the defend or attack command where u can select how many ships you send out

Hi All,

I have edited the "equip all ships" to install ware. Have a look here, open the anarkis file and you can see my screenshot of the .xml showing the code line 016 changed to "install" ware.

But it doesn't install. I tried equiping some falcons with tempest missles. They just went to the cargo bay.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

DaveBC

cool script

very good with a TL too

but i was woundering if it would be able to use the large TP's in my TL ?
I have used the Dock/undock TP in TL mod.

Cant it be done, so the TP will think my TL (mamont) is a station and only can hold 2 of them because of the size of them?

The AI may uninstall them.

But, if the missile probability is set up they will use them even if their not "installed". I beleive the AI checks for missiles in cargo bay durring battles.

DaveBC : Do NOT make random changes to my scripts and moreover do NOT distribute those changes ! Changing the command by "Install Ware" won't work correctly as it'll install the ware from thin air. Making my script a cheat. Thanks. Moreover ACC since 1.35 install the wares correctly (except if something else is already installed).

Donsja : ACC by itself don't "unlock" TS/TP docking to M1/TL. But it's fully compatible with mods like XFP or DDRS that have M1 and TL with external docking bay for transport ships.

@davie_36 : About the logbook messages, it's probably a debug log i've forgotten to remove from the official release. I'll remove it asap.

Im also assuming the auto pilot engage thing (and ship stopping engines) ,when an order is issued , is also built in and not a bug of the script

Correct.

Sorry,

I searched for, and found the info in THIS thread

Any way, I updated to your latest version. I meant no harm.

Thanks,

Is there any chance that you can add the possibility of defining attack wings? Currently the "Attack wing against" command sends out a number of ships against a target, what I'd like to do is having a different command that sends out exactly the ships I want.

To be more specific, let's imagine you can have four attack wings for each cap ship, let's call them alpha, beta, delta and gamma. Assigning a ship to a specific attack wing could be done by a script which also sets the carrier as the fighter's homebase. So you could have a carrier command "Assign to carrier" that asks you to select the desired ship, and then via a message you could select the attack wing. Ideally I'd want to have a light squadron of M4's for light pirate duty, a heavy bomber wing against capships, a "jack of all trades" wing for various threats and so on.

The new command, let's call it "Deploy wing against" should then ask you for the target and then for the wing you want to deploy, let's say 1 for Alpha, 2 for Beta, 3 for Delta, 4 for Gamma and 5 for all fighter wings. The command should work for both docked and undocked ships.

Anyway, just an idea, I don't know anything about scripting but I think that this is doable. Great job so far with this script.

Improved group management is on my todo list but it's not gonna happen soon as ACC is currently stable and i'm currently working on other projects.
