Modding SEV Thread Questions

[Phoenix-D]

There's a list but its out of date and not accurate. Search around the forum for Fyron's post that "doesn't" have Description_Abilities.txt attached to it.

Hmmm, not finding it. I see a number of references in messages to that file, but they all say "where is it?". So I guess I have the same question

[Captain Kwok]

I've posted a copy of the description files here:

Yeah, found them after I started widening my search past this forum

Thanks for doing that, Captain Kwok. I can definitely see why Aaron pulled them - they're seriously out of date and somewhat confusing.

Instead of relying on them, I think I'm going to hard-code the ones I know about for now and when the updated files come out, I'll read them in instead.

Is there a way to get SE5 to generate a log or report showing any errors with my mod?

SE:V will spit out fatal mod errors when the mod is loaded as SE:IV did. It won't tell you though if you have 1 ability required but 2 listing and things of that sort - but it would tell you if you had 1 ability listed and said 2 were required...

The "Combat To Hit Defense" ability can be used on hulls or components, and even facilities if you wanted.

Haven't tried yet but there are a bunch of debug flags which all default to FALSE in DebugSettings.txt
