Sorry, I am still playing the game so I need to bring this thread to the surface again.

It is an issue for which I posted in the past too but I found no solution, now I have some more info to provide and I hope it could easily indicate (to the knowledgeable at least) what is wrong.

The problem:

The shortcuts from the interface section can be assigned but do not respond in any way when clicked, not only those that belong to ADS but also the ECS one. Is this a coincidence or is one a consequence of the other?


The Info:

I went in the Artificial Life settings from the gameplay menu and there is a ECS entry with a <Yes> to it, if I click on it, a new menu opens up and it shows one ECS plugin listed "anarkis.acc.plugin" but it says <not found>. If I click on this entry another menu opens up (selected plugin) where there is an option to unregister it, making me think that it is registered but not found.


Is this the way it should be or is it trying to tell me what the problem is?

v1.14 has a LOT of bugs.
I am just now developing v1.15, although very slowly. If desired, I could send a link to my newest version now, but it will also be flawed.
The problem is that, at least for me, ADS is quite complicated. Not only that, but two other mods, Pirate Guild 3 and Yaki Armada also rely and depend on ADS. Another problem is feature creep.
There is a chance that I will one day finalize it to a fully working mod, but this is anything but guaranteed. Although Yoda will dislike, I will try my best.

Hi Nico, it is a pleasant surprise to see that not only you are still around but you are still working, whether slowly or not, on your script.

I would indeed appreciate the newest version of the script and if you can find it useful I will provide you with some feedback on how it works for me.
I am currently playing Farnham Legacy and I am really glad I have tried your script with it, although I have this problem with the shortcuts not working it is not a problem in itself, I am using a G11 keyboard and I have set up 2 macros, one for attack target and the other for protect ... , also one that takes me directly to the General menu.

Your script is already a more than a worthy addition to the game, it has brought my carrier and its fighters into play with its "quality of life" additions . I wanted to fix the ECS side of things if possible but so far, it not working doesn't seem to be a game changer for me. Furthermore I am not using Pirate Guild nor Yaki Armada so if that is the main issue with your current version it is of no importance to me.

So yes. please, link me up to whatever you have got going and I will greatly appreciate it regardless of whether it will run or not with my setup and if Yoda like it will not, so be it. :)

Cheers

There you go.
be aware, that I changed this or that. Don't expect miracles.
Thank you for your kind words.

*edit*
Hold on to your papers. I busted. Of course I forgot that my fancy version needs some external resource.
For some of the menus to work correctly, Dynamic Menus is needed also.
It is a slightly modified version of the original version.

Thank you.

I will get to it as soon as possible, if not sooner, I am curious to see how it runs. Hopefully I can install it without asking for assistance.

One question, do the previous requirements (ECS and Anarkis libraries) still needed?


I will let you know how I get on with it.


Cheers.

No problem. Yes, the libraries and ECS are also needed.

This is good news, we will wait for the update. Please, if it doesn't make it difficult, put all the necessary archives with libraries together with the mod and into the archive. It's better to have everything in one place than to search all over the forum.

And over time, the links do not work.

Thank you friend.

Here is what I got so far in an all in one zip.

Contents: ADS, PG3, YA2, ECS, ADS libraries, DM

Cheers. As long as I have the files on my HD, I can provide them.

I have installed the ADS script, libraries and ECS from your last post, as they seemed newer versions than what I had installed. Dynamic menus looked the same so I didn't update it.

The shortcuts, with the exception of the ADS manager, still do not work, but the mechanics are now training and going up in rank. Before while they still performed repairs they did not improve, so that is already a plus on the already useful status from the previous version.

As far as the shortcuts go, like I said it is not a big deal cause I have made them with my keyboard macros so I have the functionality. The ECS shortcut remains unresponsive but to be honest I don't even know what it is meant to be used for.

Thanks

Hi Brinnie, I am currently working on ADS crawling through the code.
Regarding ECS: I think ECS was never really finished by Serial Kicked, the original author of ADS, PG3, YA2 and ECS. I am not sure what ecs is about. From the brief view I had on the script it handles communication to player owned stations. Ecs is at the very lower part of my work list. ADS is priority one. There are so many bugs and problems, that I don't even know how you guys could have played it. But ok. Regarding 'The shortcuts from the interface section' you mean the hotkeys? Or the commands you give via command console? ->

As said before, I changed a lot in ADS, global variables too. If ecs tries to find them, they will be missing.

Hi Nico.

To this day I still do not know what the ECS shortcuts are for, so really I do not miss their functions in the least, I have just been giving some feedback.

I am really glad you are still working on the script, which I repeat is already good for me, and although I am not much use if you can a way that I can be of help I will try and do it.

With shortcuts I mean the hotkeys that are found in the interface section of the controls (Options/Controls/Interface), these can be assigned but do not respond when pressed, but as I mentioned earlier I am using my old G11 with the macros "c 7 3 and c 7 4" which are practically as good as the hotkeys.


ps. I don't remember if I said already but although I am posting here , I am actually using your script in FL which makes it even cooler for its compatibility.

Glad to hear about the compatibility with FL :)
I am currently reworking the assault/defend/clear section of the mod. If I am lucky, I will have something working by the end of next week. If desired, I will post that version here for playtesting.
