Attached is a file "DebugStart.zip" with many thanks to NMS for supplying the code. It contains a file called 'DebugStart.bat'. The forum won't upload .bat files so it is in a .zip file. Either extract the .bat file or open the .zip file and copy the file from inside it. This file can be used to eas...

@NMS. Thanks for the bat file code. Much easier than changing the properties on a short-cut for every game folder. Nice one. Also I'll attach a bat file to the 'How to start debug mode' topic. @ Zeke. Valid points there. Thanks for bringing them up. I used to copy saves when I was playing. The fact ...

Dev version 262 removed from above post and 264 attached here.
Requires 1.9a2 (API 46).

Fixes a bug where armor couldn't be installed in the Items or Ship Dock Services screens. It was giving an error. My typo!

Hi, Alex. I have also noticed lower loot levels early in the game. Quite a few stations can have nothing at all. Others, especially Anarchist settlements, have more than the playership hold can fit. Also, others have commented on the scarcity of stations in some systems before St Kats. I recall one ...

The new Ras factory looks great. I especially like the dockscreen background image and how the tail of the Corp cruiser goes over into the pane area. And the new enhancement info is good. Previously all enhanced items looked very much the same. Refering to PMs non-clearing of the 'Find Dvalin' missi...

Very speedy post. Thanks. The topic name, 1.9b2, will cause confusion later. 'Tis 1.9a2, not a beta yet.

What Amteloletom said. Copy the save file when you want a fixed save. This is the only way I know. The game does auto-save at certain times. At the end of missions or after certain major points. This is often determined by code so it varies quite a bit. There isn't a way to force a save during play ...

The enhancement is random. It is independent of offered items. This is in 1.8.

Dvalin is getting a lot of attention in the current git version. In 1.9a2 there will be quite a few changes. And I'm not saying what they are!

Nah, it is only a patch for 1.8.3 stable. Wouldn't ever need to be updated unless 1.8.4 stable was released. Even then it would only need updating if the missions changed which isn't likely unless they are changed to fix the bug (then the patch won't be needed anyway). A pull request would be the be...

weapon damage Damage levels can be calculated fairly consistently by using the method you suggest; hp x number of shots x time. But the actual damage done on impact is affected by resistances. See the "basic shield info" forum topic for an explanation. The same thing happens with armor resistances. ...

A quick mod based on a feature request from Erial. It adds a "Software" action to the "Ship Configuration" screen. This navigates to another screen which shows the current targeting computer, visual display enhancer, trading computer and mining computer status in the screen description. Designed for...

Although your sequential move idea is great it is beyond my coding skills ATM. The mod will work as such. 1. Move the playership to the center of the other minigate. Add a 'ship freeze' overlay similar to the EP start effect to freeze the ship for 1 or 2 seconds real-time. 2. Move character wingmen ...

Excellent info as always. Thanks. Yes, I assume George will find a fix the 1.9 versions. derakon(?) had a good idea about registering gPlayer instead of gPlayerShip which would cover it. But it probably isn't worth updating 1.8 for this. So it looks like an <OnGlobalPlayerChangedShips> event which c...
