[SCRIPT] Missile Bay Extension :: v1.30 :: 04/01/08

[Stevio]

sorry i haven't had time to do anything the last several days

i can have a look today though

[mrBullseye]

I tried to open this package with the script manager packager, but the damn thing crashed. Extracting it from context menu in wndows seemed to work ok, but browsing through the code in the external script editor, I'd say there's definately files missing. text-files at the very least.
Might be the package is damaged and causing all these troubles .

[Stevio]

I looked through the spk and there arn't any missing files
the script manager crashed probably due to a corrupted download so downloading the package again would have solved that issue probably
Not that that would help the loadscreen crash

-----------------------

I have tracked down the issue that causes the crash during loading and i should have it sorted and re-released by tomorrow morning.

-----------------------

Slightly delayed - Problem with Custom wares atm

Cheers Stevio

Updated with New Version, uses {EMP} wares 272 and 294
until issues with the plugin managers custom wares is resolved

v1.10:
> Crash upon loading fixed
> A few Exploits Removed
> Now uses {EMP}

Download link is on the OP

[Stevio]

Update v1.20
> Exploit fix
> Removed 1 ware so that you only require one extension
> Now uses Egosoft ware SS_WARE_SW_NEW1, - roughly costs 1 million credits

I looked everywhere for these and couldn't find any so I checked in the script to see where they should be. I found these two lines here

Code: Select all

009   *= [THIS] -> call script lib.Stevio.addware :  ???=$Station.type  ???=Argon  ???=$ware
010   *= [THIS] -> call script lib.Stevio.addware :  ???=$Station.type  ???=Split  ???=$ware

Should those ??? be there? I commented out those lines and replaced them with

Code: Select all

006 @ = [THIS] -> call script 'lib.stevio.addware' :  Station type=$Station.type  Race=Argon  Ware=$ware
007 @ = [THIS] -> call script 'lib.stevio.addware' :  Station type=$Station.type  Race=Split  Ware=$ware

After which I was able to buy the upgrade from the relevent EQ docks.

[Stevio]

Ohh yeah your quite right the capital 'S' on stevio is the cause it should be lower case 's'

uploaded the fix for it link on the OP

when a script cannot be found the arguments are displayed as '???'
much like when a text file is missing it is displayed as 'readtextxx-xxxx'

I thought it would have been something like that. Although I was thinking more alng the lines that you might have deleted a script, which broke the reference, and then rewrote it, but the broken refernce didn't update. I'm kinda new to scripting so I'm not sure how it all works together yet. I didn't know it was case sensitive so thanks for pointing that out.

that is what happened thanks for spotting it

I notice most of the post on here are kind of old... so I do hope someone is still reading this one, now and then.

A couple of Questions. First of all: Can you give me a hint on where to find the Missile Bay Extension systems. In my prior game, I had access to every sector... and could never find one in Argon or Teladi Equip. Docks... Nor any one elses. In my current game (I re-started) I have access to Light of Heart and Thuruk's Beard... and its not in either.

I have the script running, and recieve the "thank you for using" message... but can't seem to find the Equip.

One possible problem; I read through these post and see that I need to Use the 'Use Custom Wares' in the installer. I'm running Installer v1.60 and can't seem to find that option anywhere. Is this version too old?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx in Advance

Skorne

P.S. The option to set-up Hot-Keys is also available... but again... No system to be found.

[Stevio]

oops very late reply haven't been checking this thread

you'll need to enable custom wares
Open the installer,
and click the Custom Wares tab,
and then tick the "allow use of custom wares option"

once again very sorry for late reply

[Stevio]

Script Name: Missile Bay Extension
Version: V1.30
Author: Stevio
Released: 04/01/2008


heres the latest script its using a plugin manager custom ware so the 'allow custom wares' option needs to be enabled on all the users installer for the script to function
a few bugs resolved
including conflict with Fight command mk3



Cheers

It costs about 28mil? I thought it's suppose to be about 1 mil?

Also, "Weapon system not available" happens when I try to use Bay 1.

Latest version of the Plug-in manager (v2.12) used, if that helps, along with XTM installed. Not using the standalone EMP as XTM comes with EMP integrated, as I understand it...

Call me retarded, but I can't seem to find the actual download link for the script in the original post, and the link on the creators page just redirects you back to this post. Any one have a download link for this?

Great idea Stevio.

I'm really looking forward to using this script, but I can't get it work
After installing it with plugin manager I can find the ware and the hotkeys, but there is no setup commands in the command menu. I only have X3 2.5 and XTM installed beside this script.

Anyone have any ideas?

[Chaos565]

i am running the XTM mod and when i first installed it, it would remove ALL ship extentions from the station and (in the case of the EQ dock) would leave the CLS MKI extention. this would remain unchanged even after i try to uninstall it.
