[BONUS ADD-ON] TP-Renamescript

Post by ticaki » Sun, 18. Jul 04, 14:38

Hello everyone,

The first signed script has arrived. Registered users can download it from their personal download page!

Short description:
To install: copy the TP-renamescript into your "X² - The Threat\scripts\" Folder!

The script runs automatically while loading a savegame and has the following functions:

TPs with XL wares on board will be renamed to:
"old name" -> "..Check.. old name"

TPs that are running an XL command:
"old name" -> "--XL-- old name"

The script is best installed before converting a savegame but after installing 1.4, to ensure that all relevant TPs will be identified.

To uninstall: Delete the script.

Greets ticaki

P.S. Please note that future notices about the release of signed scripts will be made in the Scripts and Modding forum.

TP are changed in 1.4 to carry only L cargo and thus specifically Manta & Toucan were changed.

This will change the name of any of these 2 ships executing XL goods commands so that it will be easier to single out these ships and replace them with TS.

im guessing its for those people with TP's still carrying XL freight. you run the script and any TP with the freight is renamed from "Silicon Hauler"
to "--XL-- Silicon Hauler" so you know which TP's need emptying of XL cargo and replacing with a TS.
just to make the job easier for those people with 20000 ships and some mantas still carrying silicon or whatever

Although I thought ahead and scrapped all my XL carrying mantas ahead of 1.4, this is a top script idea, and signed too? Extremely useful for those with massive manta fleets.

Good job Tic! 8)

Just a suggestion. Make a single thread for all scripts being released and sticky it.

That may well happen, in the Scripts and Modding forum, once there is more than one signed script for us to tell you about. :)

all my mantas still have L limit wares can carry. I did noticed -XL- tag on left of name. Also I tried buy new manta, it still limit L, cant carry XL. Now all my factories that need silicon and ore are blinking yellow. how come TP still limit L in my game? I am not running other scripts.

that's the point they're MEANT to be limited to L. In 1.3 they could be XL but not now. The script is so people who need to change all their Silicon-carrying Mantas can easily see which ones are a problem
