Hi Gazz,

That would mean including the modified keyboard with the script, making it into a mod..... I don't think that Cycrow's packager could cope with that.

Not sure that this is one of your best ideas.......

Oooooh, I think we're on to something here!

If Cycrow could be convinced to allow Keyboard mods with his packager, the player's keyboard could grow some desperately needed new keys for X3!

There's just not enough keys to map all those hotkeys to...

Hi Gazz,

Now that is a much better idea... all we need to do (apart from convincing Cycrow that it is a good idea) is to think how to label all the keys...... (A0 to A12) through to (Z0 to Z12) ?? -- excluding Fx would be a start .... oh yes, then we have to find a way of fixing them to the keyboard - how about a 3D stack and you modify your Complex Cleaner to make a Keyboard Cleaner with all the keys instantly available? Could you do that?

I guess that will take a little more planning than expected...

But I carelessly clicked the link in your sig.
There I saw lots of things.
Collect freight, collect drones... *bzzzt* *rattle* *clank*
Drones that collect freight!

Instead of a slow TS chugging around in a Xenon sector, it should just deploy 10 drones to harpoon and tow the freight containers back to it's position.
Those little buggers are fast and hard to hit. Well, and a lot cheaper than a TS. =)

Besides, animated things like that are fun to watch.

And I learned something new. Copyleft law.
In true spirit I shall use it without mentioning the source. =P

Hi Gazz,

That wasn't a careless click on my sig, it was planned by me.....

I did think about using drones as freight collectors - but the transporter is quicker and easier - especially as mine is very modified - auto collect is great. As far as I know, you can't get the drones to use tractor beams... it might be worth looking at...

As for the copyleft - yes I do mean it, so when you use any scripts in the true spirit - have a drink of the sauce...
