prep. for 1.4: replace TP ships by TS

Post by blackspell »

a preparation script for the upcoming 1.4 patch.
it will replace all your TP ships with a factory type homebase with TS ones of the same race. When called with param1='1' it will replace only those ships currently transporting XL cargo.

DO NOT USE YET
first of all, it is not needed, yet
second it is incomplete, it misses all ships currently docked
third, we do not know how 1.4 affects existing TP ships, yet - maybe just new ones, not the existing ones?

This script was only written to be prepared for the possibility that 1.4 affects your empire. Maybe egosoft already planned another way for solving this?! Then this script would not be needed and i would have coded it "just to have training"
As you might have already seen: i'm not providing a download link for the script - and i will not do this before 1.4 is out.
This thread is just to inform you, *if* 1.4 endangers your empire there is a a solution available.

Without revealing what Egosoft will do, why not submit your script to see if it's better than any of the current ideas?

you really think there is a chance that my script could be more useful than any of mkess of burnit?
only a small hope.. ;)
at least, they already know how to access docked shipes while we do not
but you never know without trying so i'll do send it to them

Script received.

We are indeed testing such a script ourselves but will have a look at your script as well - maybe it contains an idea we haven't thought of yet.
