I <3 you Gazz. Due my love of this script, and the lack of LT's in my verse, I just built two self-sustaining complexes each with 8 LT factories.

YAY!

I set pirates to Foe in my global settings,and i send the settings to all my properties.LT work well if they decloaked. After the LT stealthed, the settings of all LT become Freind,even the private. So LT let the pirates pass OOS and not IS.I confused.Is it a bug?

And they revert to friend while your global setting still said foe?

yes!!! LT will automatically revert to friend to every race after they cloaked. So privates can pass without a LT decloak OOS. IS is perfect.
Help me.

Greetings,

I have a few questions about this script... if they have been answered before my apologies, please just link me to the relevant post in the thread in that case.. (I didn't read the entire thread, though what I did read seems vey interesting).


I am about to start the Aldrin missions, and I was wondering if this most excellent and awesome looking mod will be capable of defending a certain TUS from being overrun by Xenon through a certain gate... (you know what I mean... :P) From what I read, the upgrades to their OOS effectiveness are quite amazing, and if a set of 360 of these bugzappers could keep that particular gate secure, then this will truly be what I am looking for :D

If so: considering the fact that ships tend to "warp in" a few km in front of the gate OOS, if I understood that correctly, what would be a good distance to deploy those rings from a gate?

Any and all help/advise would be greatly appreciated :)


*ps: no MARS scripts or similar combat enhancing mods are currently used in my game (... yet...), in case that would make a difference. (I would definately suspect so :P)

i'd really like a 'cheat' verision of this where u dont need any LT's or microships but instead they charge u credits for them as i have ALOT of credits but CBA to go around finding LTs and microships

peanutcat...sounds like a good time for you to start your entry into the world of scripting!

Look for a line in the mod "get amount of ware Lasertower", and similar for microchips. Replace it with a check for amount of credits. You'll have to analyse the code a little to get the details but that's half the fun.

Learning basic scripting is actually quite entertaining. I occasionally bugfix the scripts I have, although the biggest use I have is a set of scripts for desperately trying to recover the dead economies of the terrans and the NE block. replacing fabs, getting rid of the impossible numbers of military ships in the hope that they spawn more traders, killing civilians, etc. once or twice had to script in the middle of battle: tbh I think something is a little broken when I'm supposed to be following someone for a plot mission and there are 5 destroyers in front of me for no apparent reason. Good times :P

:evil: i have been trying to figure this out for what seems like forever i have a mammoth its loaded down with laser towers and chips but i see absolutely no option to deploy them when i select the towers all that comes up is the option to dump them in space. how or where do i turn this on so i can use it? i read threw the guide but i don't see ANY WHERE that the creator of the script actually tells you how to start it.

that seems to be a huge trend with scriptwriters and x games they give you this cool mod or script and don't tell you crap about how you actually start it or use it

can any one help me get this started or point me in the right direction. thanks

I haven't use this script, but due to the fact that it registers a "Special" command slot, check the equally named command section in the command console of your ship for the respective command.

I'm having an issue with this script... the towers deploy just fine and cloak up, but then very rarely uncloak. I've had pirates sitting on my complex hub with 3-4 groups of 5 stealthed lasertower in range, global settings have pirates as enemy, and even after i open fire in sector the lasertowers don't do anything.

However, the groups i've placed out to hold back terran ships seem to be doing just fine.

Which is a mod for X3TC/AP, hence why the adjusted script will not work with X3R.

Great script and unless you 'cheat' the wares into existence, it's reasonably costed. Thing is -

Spent all day trying various inputs to set the distance of ring from gate (unsuccessfully). Quantity and radius are straightforward enough but, DISTANCE from gate...?

Lining myself up with the 'edge-on view of gate, my freighter deploys the ring but only 'around the circumference' - the ring always attaches slightly 'rearward' of the gate (from sector perspective).

I've tried assorted 'numbers' in the [x, y, z] input but, to no avail.

Where is this 'configure' command for changing the settings? The '?' only brings up an "Incoming message" of what to do but, not where or how. Do I open up the script editor and hunt around in there? Do I have to alter something in the game script folder? Surely not so unwieldy - distances will need to varied with different 'targets' to defend/guard.

Under the freighter's [Special] command, the only option is to deploy, not alter settings. Nor have I found them under my main command options of [Shift] + [C].

Apologies if this has been answered in the multitude of pages but, I can't seem to find any 'search' function (other than Googling from outside and then just this site results from searching. :(

Any help appreciated TIA.
