Re: [MOD] Argon Reborn - (Improved NPCs, Station Race NPCs, Argon Race Habitat or Custom)

Post by FireFly21 » Wed, 2. Dec 20, 00:42

I've had the same issues with this mod where all Split NPCs looked the same, and with the split starts the split plot ships would spawn without pilots. I'm pretty sure I fixed it. I didn't test it extensively, I just started a new game with a split start and everything seems to be working ok. Both Argon Reborn and Shipyards Crew are active.

I just copied the code from the split dlc files to the mod files:

In characters.xml I added this:

Code: Select all

<add sel="/characters">
    <!--<character id="TEMP_manager_split_random" group="split.manager">
      <category tags="[npc, crew, officer, trader, commander, fighterpilot, manager, marine, masstraffic, watchdog, pilot, traderpilot]" faction="[split, freesplit, faction.player]" race="split"/>
      <owner list="[split, freesplit]"/>
    </character>-->

    <character id="trader_split_random" group="split.trader">
      <category tags="[crew, pilot, aipilot, traderpilot, masstraffic]" faction="[split, freesplit, fallensplit, court, faction.player]" race="split"/>

Update for COH, not fully tested, will fix in time.

Beta version for COH, please post bugs.


- I haven't test the habitats

- i didn't test buying crew, when buying ships


Don't use the Shipyards files for now, they will mess up your game. Will update those, after more testing.
