[SCRIPT] Improved Boarding : V1.23 : 30-06-2010
Moderators: Moderators for English X Forum, Scripting / Modding Moderators
I happend to have experienced the same bug as Paingod, it seems, playing XRM.
I boarded a Pirate Centaur in HellForge ( i had 15 marines on board of my Wolf, iirc ). Then i´ve collected all the marines in space, using Toucan TP ( one of them appeared to be a "passenger", though, when trying to transfer him to another ship, i showed "stars" ).
Then i tried to sort my marines, after they´ve repaired the capped Centaur.
I could transfer them from and to Wolf <-> Toucan, but i couldn´t move them from the Centaur. I noticed then the doubling effect ( luckily, Paranid names are short, and easy to remember ). I needed the Centaur for some mine towing actions, so i didn´t sell it right away, and when i was boarding a Boron Thresher recently, in the property menu where you can see your marines fighting, i noticed the those "doubled" marines seemed to participate in the boarding operation.
Now, i´ve found out, that i could transfer marines from Elefant to my Split M2, and the doubliing effect occured with some of them ( obviously those i´ve picked up in space in HellForge, but then i´ve transfered them back, and when i tried this again, the doubling effect dissapeared.
So, the only doubled marines i still have are those on the Centaur. Since the Centaur has only place for 8 marines, and it was full, so i couldn´t transfer them back and forth, that seems to me a problem. Gonna sell it, and if the marines dissapear, i´ll have to cheat me some instead, or i´ll just live with the fact they´re gone ( kind of MIA ).
@Dr.B: Note, i haven´t ugraded your boarding tool to the latest version, since my game seemed to be stable, so i must have the one before you included the spacewalking marines repairing ships, i think
Edit: i´ve possibly should have posted this iny your marines thread, Dr.B.

Hm, another boarding and another transporter bug. This time i could transfer my marines from a captured corvette back to my frigate, but there were their dublicates floating in space. I left them in space, hoping they´d dissapear after a while, and they did, as my original all "commando" 5 star marines from my personal ship. MIA is ok for some coincidence, but this seems to become a rule, rather then exception.
I never had this before the 3.0 upgrade, and i have a feeling there´s smth. wrong with my install, or with the upgrade as such. So, no boarding anymore till the problem gets fixed....
Report end.

If you can figure out EMP, it is a just a matter of changing an id at the bottom of the language file (t file) and updating the scripts to match your change.
Or you could try my hacked version, back a couple of pages.

the most likely reason, is that you are missing the generated ware files so the ware isn't being loaded into the game.
check in the cheat scripts for the emp wares, they will be alot of them (under tech) with similar names, should be Z_BLANK.. or possible just showing a readtext.
make sure you are closing the plugin manager before running the game so it can generate the correct files

Hm yes, there alot of these Z_... files. And I found even the Boarding Extension among the tech items, but it won't appear under the install Equipment option. Was that the mistake, that I tried to look there instead of the wares?
Anyway, it seems to work now, thank you very much Cycrow.
Btw, when you said closing the manager, did you mean actually clicking the close butten or is it also enough if I start X3 with the manager?
