You're right--sorry (don't have the code in front of me). I meant the place where raid platform is referenced by a station. Look at the marauder outpost or something. I believe that means you need to put the <Escorts> tag in the station definition: <StationType UNID="&stbshipEncounter;" ... > <Ships...

Will that mean that current extensions that use gStation for event targets will need to be re-written to use gSource? Yes, unfortunately, it does. I've also changed DockScreens to use gSource (basically everything uses gSource now). It didn't take me long to search/replace in all of my source code....

I don't have the code in front of me, but I think you need to use the <Escorts> tag instead of the <Ships> tag. <Escorts> <Ship count="1" class="... </Escorts> Check out the Marauder raid platform in Transcendence.xml The second problem is that the <Construction> tag only works for stations--not for...

If you're looking for a way to make the ship friendly, then you need to assign it a sovereign. I would remove the controller= attribute altogether. It's hard to give advice if I don't know what you're trying to do, so your best bet is to look at Transcendence.xml and copy from a station/ship that is...

controller="Nexia" is definitely not right. I'm not sure if that's causing the problem, but you can't just put in any random string for controller. The controller specifies the piece of C++ code that will handle the ship. It might help if you posted the whole extension (or the whole station, at leas...

Not sure if it works. Well, actually the 'loot' part isn't that important I guess. I wouldn't mind hearing some more details. Why doesn't it work? What happens? I assume that the Centurion attacks whatever ship destroyed the freighter. Then, *after* the attacker is destroyed, the Centurion should l...

I don't have the code in front of me, but I believe the OnDestroy code sets the gStation global instead of gSource. Because OnDestroy started out as a station event, it is called gStation even for ships. Not sure what to do about that--I might do a global rename (gSource everywhere) but that would b...

Looks like scCenturion and svIndependent are not defined in the ENTITY section. That could be the problem.

What are those three asterisks (***) at the end of the sysCreateShip line?

That would definitely be a problem.

As devlenk6 said on the other forums, the chance attributes in the Ships table need to add up to 100. Also, I spotted a small mistake in the levelFrequency attribute: ccccu rrrr- -rrrrr ----- ----- The third group of frequencies has 6 values--it should have only five. Get rid of the extra r or remov...

[quote="Czert?]Mayby introducing "mail"-ordering in late-game versions ? [/quote]

Oh well--there goes one of my surprises for the next version!

The list itself is mostly in my head. But still, it isn't that interesting. It's filled with stuff that you would expect: make the end game better; add more missions; add more enemies; etc.

I'm sorry--I thought you were asking whether it was currently possible to make an enemy ship follow you. It is not currently possible because it is not implemented. But if you're *requesting* a new feature, then that's a different story. I think it is a great idea but it is not on my list of feature...

Very cool! I like your new site.

Unfortunately, that is not currently possible. Sorry about that.
