Activating a inactive gate

[00NightHunter00]

How would you go about activating a inactive gate between 2 dlcs i turned off the gate between antigone and seg and want to use a md script to activate it is it possible?

Yes, that is possible. We had this topic nearly a year ago: viewtopic.php?f=181&t=454245&p=5178735#p5178735.

So you need to know your gate macro and you have to define a condition. Almost anything is possible. Completed plot/story, research, a killed enemy. What ever. https://wiki.egosoft.com:1337/X%20Rebir ... Conditions (X:Rebirth MD is same as X4).

Not at the pc now so just an hint, did you see in the boron dlc's md? I added some more inactive gates that get opened at stages of the plot by simply replicating the scripts that are in setup_dlc_boron or boron_story, don't remember which one. You find the added md in my xrsge mod.
