ASEWS Script question

Post by SnowHeart »

I recently installed the ASEWS script and I'm loving it. This thing gives me great information on when the Khaak appear in a sector and significantly improves the utility of the Advanced Satellites. I do have one problem though, and was hoping either the script creator or someone else can help me out here (as I know next to nothing about creating/editing scripts).

When I move in on a cluster and open up with my weapons, the cluster separates. But, this triggers another ASEWS pop-up message, obscuring the screen and making an effective strafing run almost impossible. Is there anyway to turn off the pop-up messages, while keeping the notice of a new "incoming message" that just goes into the message log?

Thanks,
~Snowy

yeah, did you read the readme?
you need to get into the script in the script editor, it's like 20 lines or so, at around 3/4 of the way through there's a line that says ...
'display=true' or something to that effect.
that's what controls the pop-up. if you set this to null and resave the script it won't pop-up, it will just write to logbook.
take a quick look at the readme, i think it gives a step by step.

*or maybe not, if not, i'll dig it up for you*

Thank you! I just made the change, hopefully that'll do it. I looked in the Readme and, at least in the copy of the script I downloaded, I didn't see anything to that effect. I did find two different versions, though (one here, another on X2 Source), so maybe the other version has that instruction?

Anyway, thanks again.

no prob. if it doesn't work, repost and i'll put a step by step up when i get home. I fixed mine a while back.
There are like eight versions of that script floating around out there. I can't remember where I found the step by step instructions, but hopefully you won't need them.

Yup. Had to play with a couple times to figure out exactly which one it was, but eventually got it right. Thanks! 8)
