Making TC mods AP compatible

[Nicoman35]

Gentlemen,
I want to make a so far on TC working mod comptatible for AP. I need to know:

1. Are there any TC script commands no longer working on AP?
2. Has something changed regarding handling of arrays in AP?
3. Is there a 'common' issue known, that prevents TC mods working in AP?

Mods or scripts?

There are plenty of reasons for TC mods to not work under AP.

As for scripts, AP's script commands are mostly a superset of TC's. The only thing I have noticed that worked in TC but not AP is that TC allowed spaces and question marks in the return values from menu calls. AP does not.

ATM, I do not have a problem - not yet. There have been issues reported regarding my Explorer Command Extension under AP.
I am currently working on ADS - RWE, but I thaught I could already get some intel on the next construction site...

The vast majority of TC scripts work in AP without change.

• (The only bug I have ever seen in a TC script on AP was the menu return limitation that I mentioned earlier. Spaces and question marks are no longer legal return values in AP.)

Ok, I'll check that, though the menus do not seem to malfunction....thanks for input, doc.

There are however a few scripts that you shouldn't use in AP. Like RRF, Move to Coordinates and Missile Defense Mk2

as versions of these are included already

OK, taking that into account, Cycrow. Don't think the Explorer Command Extension is touching any of these.
