Default Re: Custom Weapon Issue

Fyron -

I think your statement is incorrect in that the AI is definitely ignoring the "Vehicle Type" restriction for these weapons.

These custom weapons *are* using a Weapon Family number that is used by other weapons, but they have a different Family number. (There is no text on what Weapon Family number does in the Components.txt file - how does it work?)

Its easy enough for me to change the Weapon Family number for them, but the AI is definitely ignoring the restrictions in a way no human could. (You can't upgrade to a weapon that you can't design a ship to use in the first place, yet the AI can, it seems.)

I will check out the new Weapon Family number on the next game. Thanks!
