Arrrggghhh!
 

I recently added some new ships to my fleet and changed some of the pictures. When I resummed a game - all my ships have other names and the pictures are messed up as well!!! Wazzup widdat?

Re: Arrrggghhh!
 

What exactly did you change? If you added ships to the ship text data, then you may well have messed it up.

Re: Arrrggghhh!
 

I checked all the data in the VehicleSize file - it seems to be correct. But I fixed the problem by moving the added entries to the bottom of the list. Du'oh!

Re: Arrrggghhh!
 

hah, yes. Its like that in all the files- if you want to preserve savegames DON'T change the order things appear in.

Things are refered to by their position in the file, not by their name..

Re: Arrrggghhh!
 

Which I probably should have mentioned, but I have this bad habit of assuming other people know what I'm talking about, even if it's complicated.

Re: Arrrggghhh!
 

You can add new entries to the end of data files, in which case the save game should be ok.

Oh, and here I thought this was something pirate related.

Listen to the nice modding people. They know what they're doing.

And even the mice nodding people.

* A bad joke based on the fact that I'm kinda tired.

Kind of tired??? Just kinda? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Well, technically, I'm not tired at all.

I'd have to be a wheeled vehicle to be tired.
