component question for SJ
 

hey there. got a question on some of the P&N components, but i will start with this one. on the phased torpedos, what the heck is this:

Number of Abilities := 1
Ability 1 Type := Phased Shield Generation
Ability 1 Descr := +15% accuracy.
Ability 1 Val 1 := 0
Ability 1 Val 2 := 0


did you just want a note field to illustrate their accuracy, or did you want them to be damaged by shield generator destroying weapons?

thanks,
puke

Ooh, didn't see that one.

I guess I'll just have to replace those with a "organic resource generation" or something.

Thanks!

PS: I won't be updating P&N until late next week, due to a work buildup at University http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon12.gif

i take it that means its just supposed to be a note field. i would totally understand if they were suposed to be hit by shield destroyers. anyway, that same stat is on a number of the weapons with accuracy mods.

also, the ion mine requires weapon destroying weapons as a technology. was this intentional, or should it be engine destroyers?

Yep. Definitely a copy-paste error.

Did you find anything else?

nothing that looked out of place. i still need to go thru the file a second time, so i will keep you posted.. oh, i did find what looked like tabs on a couple lines in the txt. i replaced them with spaces because i was not sure if they effected the game reading the file. obviously not, since the mod works.
