Hi,

    I'm messing with Z3r0x's mod, and I wanted to make the Vong units available at the merchant space dock...thing.... Well, I don't know what XML that merchant dock would be under.  :-\ Would anyone be able to tell me? Thanks!

            -Omega1107

Check SpaceBuildablesSkirmish.xml for "N_Orbital_Construction_Pod".

okay, i'll try it. thanks!

You can't release it if it's with Z3R0X's mod.

Don't worry, I'm not releasing it. I'm just bored and am attemting to mod for myself.

 

 

Edit: Okay, I added the units' names under for all the factions there, but ingame the Vong units don't show up. I have also given them multiplayer values, made them buildable, and changed their affiliation in their own XML's.  What am I doing wrong?

Heres the code for the construction pod:

Must be typo. I needed to do that 2 or 3 times to make my Smugglers buildable in the Merchant Dock. Do CTRL+C CTRL+V in the unit name, and also in the line in tactical buidable line in the Dock code. Do not forget to make a specific version () for every faction you wish to have it buildable.

 

You can't release it if it's with Z3R0X's mod.

 

It appears that some...'problens' with users that don't give credit in FF Forums are making you kinda obsessed for the credit thing...  Just kidding, 1upD.  ;D

Cool, it's working now! ;D Thanks for all your help, guys!

Those posts by 1upD and Omega look weird next to each other...

Mainly because they have the same avatar; for a second I thought 1upD was talking to himself.

What does this "construction pod" look like?

ROFL! 

Seriously, no offense, but could you ask next time Omega1107?

I'm sorry, but ask for what? The avatar? I've had that sitting in My Pictures for a few months... I've got it as a .gif and a JPEG for some reason... :-\  Oh well, I'll change it.

Thanks. I think you got it off of Wookiepedia, somebody put it up there without permission. Nice new avatar, by the way.

Right-oh, and thanks. if any admin could close this thread so it doesn't keep getting bumped, I'd appreciate it.
