Simple modding question - I hope so.

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone can help me out. I read through the modding 101 and some others in the stickies, but couldn't find the answer. How do you make a station available to purchase?

I run through the Tfactories, but all I could make of it is that each station has a set value, even thou not all of them can be bought. I do not know what to make of it really. Anyone can help me out in here?

you have to add them via MCSI or MD to the Shipyard. here the Code for MSCI:

Code: Select all

$stationtype = YOUR STATION (TYPE)
$Shipyard ->  add product to Factory or Dock: $stationtype
$Shipyard -> add 1 units of $stationtype

Hmm... As I am a rookie in scripting, can you point me to the place where I can find the values to write in YOUR STATION (TYPE)? Is it Tfactories or Twares?

I just want to add IBL (and maybe PBG) Forge into at least one Argon shipyard. As long as the player owned versions use Space Fuel as a resource. If they use food of a diferent race, they should belong to their shipyard.

I managed to open the script editor (huray) and check some of the scripts present, but I do not want to mess up with anything in the game, so could anyone point me in the right direction?

<retvar/IF><expression>

and select a Station Type (not Object) as the only input for <expression>

You don't need to write your own script, Lea... the Cheat Package can do it for you.

Now I am feeling really stupid... For my defence I can only say, it's the first time I go modiffied.

Don't feel bad. We were all new at one time or another.
