Removing ships

[frigokar]

That's right i want to remove some ships from the build list especially the ISD from the alliance. It really bugs me to see it in hands of the rebels even if it is canon(i don't know).So can someone help me?

[EvilleJedi]

change the build.lua for the alliance in the scripts/ folder

[frigokar]

Sorry but i can't find this scripts folder or the build.lua file. Do i need to extract it from the .big files and if so how do i do that.thx.

[EvilleJedi]

you need to get a big extractor, check in tanis shipyards on the relic forums

[frigokar]

I have extracted the core.big file and oldships.big. I dont know what to do next ???, which of the build folders to edit, i have tried deleting the imperator from the "higaran" race which i think is the alliance but i still have the ability to build it.Please if you can explain exactly what i need to do to remove it from my and AI's build list.Your mod is excellent but i can't fully enjoy it without this little detail taken care of.

data\scripts\building and research\hiigaran\build.lua

 

search for hgn_imperator_destroyer and delete the entire section it is in from { to }, save and then make sure you have overrideBigFile in your path

 

{

Type = Ship,

ThingToBuild = "hgn_imperator_destroyer",

RequiredResearch = "",

RequiredShipSubSystems = "",

DisplayPriority = 75,

DisplayedName = "Imperator Destroyer",

Description = "Designation: Star Destroyer \n"..

"Length: 1600 \n"..

"Manufacturer: KDY \n"..

"Weapons:  \n"..

"Systems:  \n"..

"Description: \n"..

"Squadsize:  \n"..

"Strong:  \n"..

"Weak:  \n"..

"requirements:  \n",

},

Yeah this works ;D, thx Eville Jedi

[frigokar]

Yeah this doesn't work, The AI wont build any units even those races were i didn't remove any ships (empire,republic,militia)

[EvilleJedi]

make sure you didn't delete too much it's very particular about {} and ,

[frigokar]

I was careful about that but it seems that AI wont build anything if you remove any ships.I have tried to remove just one ship and again all races didn't build ships(they collect resources with moles).Is there some AI file I have to edit to make them build again and ignore the missing ships?
