What should your data struct look like when there are multiple station types in a category?

Looks like this bug was preventing the mission to kill the Antarctica from failing when it escapes (unless the Terra and Antarctica start in the same system).

It wouldn't be too difficult to create a pair of gates for each pair of stars that are more than some distance apart. Edit: Actually, I guess you'd want to ignore all but one star in any cluster. That's a little more complicated, but still doable. I would guess for AI ships the game treats these the...

Looks like the defined variables are:

aObjDestroyed
aDestroyer
aOrderGiver
aWreckObj
aDestroy
aDestroyReason
gData
gSource
gType

If I'm right, it doesn't matter what item you're replacing. The problem is that the auton item you attempted to modify can't be found because it has changed since the screen was opened. So it will happen any time you attempt to modify an auton with damaged armor and wait in the screen long enough fo...

Maybe George's implementation of automatic auton armor repair by the auton bay can cause the auton item to change in an event while the screen is open? When I implemented shield recharging in the bay, I managed to avoid that, but doing it for armor might be even trickier.

What about using sysAddTypeRecurringTimerEvent or a recurring timer event of some sort? You'd have to add the event in every system and I don't think it's any better performance-wise. In fact it might be worse, since they'd all happen on the same tick, rather than spread out over random ticks. I th...

OnAttacked doesn't seem ideal. OnAIUpdate should be fine as long as you don't do something very system-intensive most of the time. It could work something like this: Check the ammo level with objHasItem with 1 for the quantity. If they're docked and low on ammo, add some ammo. Once they have enough,...

-plasma advanced armor ( a lvl6 starters item) drops from ares bases. I'm not sure exactly what item you mean. It looks like Ares outposts should drop items of at least level 7. -multiple armors and guns spawn to late ingame, both shop wise and drop schedule. If you haven't played recently, nearly ...

The decorative circles strike me as weird for the Transcendence universe. If it weren't for those, I'd like more colors.

Stochastic rounding randomly rounds up or down based on how large the remainder is. So 1.6 has a 60% chance of rounding up, 40% of rounding down. This keeps the expected average value of the output equal to the input.

If there's a limited number of fixed values for the data, you could also store it in a list or struct in a type's StaticData.

The Wolfen's nacelles stick out a bit farther forward than its nose, so positioning the weapon fire points optimally would require separate slots for single and dual weapons, which wasn't possible until recently. Now that it is, I suppose we should do that. But due to the angle the images are render...

George created maneuvering thrust effects that some ships can show when they start or stop rotating. But apparently most players didn't like them, so they're disabled by default. You can enable them in settings.xml for ships that have them. It's common for ship images not to be quite centered in eac...

I once got a heavily enhanced Fusionfire howitzer and a bunch of other stuff confiscated. I was playing the EI500 with no backtracking and I failed to do any of the things that let you get Militia missions, so I never got military ID. Back then I think some Corporate stations would install military ...
