Navigation menu help

[TarJensen]

Hi,

I'm working on a little mod (with almost zero xml knowledge, this is a challenge). In this mod, i'll like the navigation window to show up (where you can select a destination an click 'plotcourse');
I figured out how to create a new menu entry, but sadly the window will not pop up when i click any of the menu options (galaxy, sectors,...)

I'm trying to avoid unwanted interferences, so i added my own menu.

Any hint would be appreciated;

Thanks

Disregard;

I just figured out that the section name was incorrect (stupid me)

Back to the editing work
Thanks

anyone knows how to call a script with parameters?

I've seen 2 different ways:

<start_script object=.... name="'name of script'">
and
<run_script name="'name of script'" result="$variable">

However, the script I want to call needs some parameters.... How to pass them ?

Thanks

<start_script> is in the case you want to spawn an independent instance of a script and run it on an object, but you wont get a return value this way

<run_script> interrupts the current scrimt, executes the given script and continues when its finisched with the return value.

both can have parameters passed with this method

<start|run_script ......>
.<parameter name="X" value="Y"/>
.<parameter ......
............/>
</start|run_script>

Thank you for the info;

Can these script be run on the playership?

Thanks

scripts can not be run on objects themselves, only on entities like Pilots, Managers, Yisha and the Bordcomputer.
