Okay, well in that case I wonder if you would give me an indication of what it takes to remove tradelanes altogether?

what do i have to edit to make the ship more agile and to give it more power capacity ?
and is it enough to edit this file (shiparch.ini) or are there some linked files ?

Edited by - TheExile on 7/29/2005 11:33:44 AM

To make it more agile either change the steering torque or reduce the angular velocity.

To give it more power you need to find out which engine or powerplant it's using and change it's values. The only problem with this is that it will affect all ships using that power plant/engine.

ok i edited the one ship(the patriot) and started the mod to test if it works properly and i have the following questions :

1.I made the ship to be able to mount class six guns but it this wasn't edited in the ship description so how do i make the ship desription reflect this ?

2.after i turned off the mod to play mp i started the game but before the game menu could start the game crashed why is that ?

i would like to know how to edit ranks for my server i want them to go up to 100. to be clear i mean the ranks in the game. they only go to 38 and i want them to go to 100 like every one else. i would also like to know how to open all gates and jump holes. please help me out .

i think ioncross can do the trick, hardnock

btw whats your server name ? i might try it

Edited by - TheExile on 8/1/2005 10:36:48 AM

the server is called playityourway.... how will ioncross do the trick. i do use ioncross server operator the newest one. also i realy need to know how to open all the gates to all players. that is the most important issue.

Edited by - hardnock on 8/1/2005 1:57:45 PM

i need to know how to open all gates on the my server me and my buddies want to be able to move freely but we cant cuz some gates and jump holes are locked.

People have been saying that in order to unlock all the gates and holes in multiplayer you need to go into initialworlds.ini and delete or REM out the locked gates ie: change locked gate = to ;locked gated = ...
And then you must start with an empty multiplayer folder. Well I discovered a way for all those who have a fair number of players and do not want to delete them.... to... unlock... all .. the gates and holes and do it all server side.

1) Rename the multiplayer folder (after you get rid of the locked gates in initialworlds.ini)
2) make a new folder to replace the multiplayer folder... ie: My Documents/My Games/accts/multiplayer

3) move the server.cfg folder from the renamed folder into the new Multiplayer folder (this keeps your server ID intact)

4 ) start the server (this creates the accts.cfg) and shut the server down and copy paste all the player folders AND ONLY THE PLAYER FOLDERS into the new multiplayer folder

5) this part is a bit of a pain, especially if you have a lot of players... go through and edit every player via Ioncross or other character editor and select the option "unlock all gates and holes" (with Ioncross) or delete the locked gates. If you miss a player and they log on... gates will lock up. I managed to do about 300 names in under an hour. Start up the server...and.. all the gates and holes are no longer locked. New players will not relock the gates!

You may have to do some server side editing to get some of the holes visible .. I think you can just delete the "visit = " if need be. The holes and gates will show up on the map and on the targettting window. They will work whether you can eyeball them or not.

First off i just want to say wow i read some of the post and man you guys\girls are good.

Ok here is my question, I need some help with the Admin ships.

I have resently taken over the admin postion for the Sunder TNG server and it was a crash corse in Hosting\modding, and im left fairly confused. Let me tell You why.

First i have fladmin running the show if im not their in front of the box if something goes wrong.
Second, i have ioncross V. start up and do its thing.
Third, FL Anti-cheat comes on for the logs it can keep and the datastream...thats cool

ok that whats on the show. now i have no problem using the 3 stock admin ships for my server but i would like to find others that will work with TNG 2.7 Bkuild 6
and not crash my game\server.

any help would be most apircated
Thank You, Mr.Sneaky
Sunder TNG 24\7 Admin

hi all,
i have a problem when i want to involve my ship into fl, when i push the buy button to buy my ship fl crash down, anyone who has an idea what is wrong? please reply

It could be a number of things but the problem is most likely your goods.ini entry. Post your code from goods.ini in this thread and I'll try to help you out.

Hello,
I can not beat Hovis. Did everything possible, ships, etc. I have searched through the forums and would like to simply set my profile to misson complete on the Hovis misson and move on. Can someone please tell me where to find the info on this or tell me how to do this? I have a save game editor but what does it mean and do I need to get an ini editor.
thanks, Mike

so the good.ini: (rs is the name off the ship)
[Good
nickname = rs_hull
category = shiphull
ship = rs
price = 1000
ids_name = 12003
item_icon = Equipment\models\commodities\nn_icons\li_elite.3db

and the second part:
[Good
nickname = rs_package
category = ship
hull = rs_hull
addon = rs_engine_01, internal, 1
addon = rs_power01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_scanner_01, internal, 1
addon = ge_s_tractor_01, internal, 1
