IF you use any Mods in your game, the stuff I have below can simply be added to a extension or module without any fanfare.
These lines are single lines, mostly so be sure the line is spaced to read in one go.
I once had an issue with code in a mod ( which is one of my favorites these days ) where the spacing of the lines made me very upset things did not work.
Code: Select all
<!-- Commonwealth Traffic Behavior
USAGE NOTES
This controls random ships that travel between Commonwealth stations.
To use:
1. Create the ship at a stargate
2. Set the event handler
3. Set the home station
4. Call "OrderBeginTraffic"
EXTRA DATA
behavior: Ship's current behavior
'enteredSystem = Ship just entered the system
'docked = Ship is docked somewhere
'leavingSystem = Ship is heading out of the system
home: Ship's home station

) but they will move Ore pretty well around the system, so stations you dumped ore on can sell it off and buy more from you later ( usually, but the treasures they carry vary so there is no sure game play to believe they will buy enough junk while you are in a system to let you sell junk again )
