Haha, you are right, there is the edit button, i'll do that now. :) As to your explanation, it makes sense, thank you, i'm not very familiar with buffs and abilities, but i am learning, i have "seen" the instandactionbuff, but dont really understand, except its seems exactlly as it says, "instant action" so that seems understandable. :) I will look at the modifiers, i am just looking at those the last two or three days, so its all starting to look familiar, but i

Reply to Is the Length of the connecting phase lanes between planets and stars in galaxydef file? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Thank you for the answers, i think i found what Mooster mentions in the planet and star entity files, there is the distance between stars and planets that he mentions. I put them farther apart, but have to start it up and check, did it late and havent had a chance to check. I am hoping of course this is it. While galaxyforge is insteresting, its quicker to do it in the files themselves, if it can in fact be done that way. :) I will let you know. Thank you to everyone!!

[quote who="Kreeargh" reply="4" id="2129693"]This is needed for accurate BSG mod Do you think it would be possable to link the fuel with the metal{tylithum} that is mined? That way is goes down the chain, you use up your fuel you have to mine for more?[/quote] That is a Great Idea!!! That is one we will have to try next!!! And if we can pull it off, then you can have it too!!! :) -Teal

You know, i went over to the store to get a soda and thought on the way, and on the way back of course, what i was missing, and Lord Tareq's idea of a speed boost for ships with a very slow movement, say 1 mph increased with the speedboost to say 200, but it cost all the 400 AM that the ship has, and has a cooldown of say 15 minutes, so the ships run around and fight and move from planet to planet, but at the end of 15 minutes it stops and they are back to 1mph and with no AM restore, i have

Is the Length of the connecting phase lanes between planets and stars in galaxydef file? in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hi, Does anyone know if the length of the connecting phase lanes for the planets and stars in the galaxydef file? I re-sized some planets, to make the HUGE!!!! Haha, and now the gravity wells and the phase lanes are all way too short. :) Anyway, i thought i could save my HUGE planets, if i made the phase lanes longer and the wells well, you know bigger too. :) Thanks and keep Moddi

Out of Fuel and ReFuel idea for mod in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hi, I am trying to create an ability to have ships run out of fuel and then have another re-fuel them. The out of fuel wasn't very difficult, i started with the phaseouthull because it disables engines, everything else as well, but i thought perhaps i could limit it to just the engines. Turned out it worked, but the finish condition was either a time limit, or enterhyperspace, the last i added. Problem now is r

Hi, Does anyone know if there is a new galaxyforge for 1.16 and Entrenchment 1.02 in work? Just trying to find out if there is a "on the horizon" due date. I haven't used galaxyforge very much, its a little beyond me, but i wanted to try the start templates thing, so i could load a set of ships for each race, and so i could put the races on different planets. Like Advent on Desert, Tec on Terran, Vasari o

Vunda, RanCid, Can you please delete your old mod for firefall and your save games. I'm not sure about the cache folder in the new 1.02 mods folder, but i had to re-load 1.16/Entr 1.02 last night, (a problem with maps that is now fixed) But i tested the FireFall 2.1 i had in the mod 1.02 folder and it tested fine.

I know Vunda, but still it shouldnt be there, or really the nice explosions should really be there. I appreciate you cutting me slack on this mess up, but still, i should have checked it more thoroughly. Thought i did, but i missed it. My game went boom tonight, i tried to update my maps in the galaxy folder and kept getting mini-dumps afterward when i tried to load the game. So it looks like i will be spending the night deleting and restarting and then re-installing the game. I will get stra

Or i already did the Impulse uninstall/re-install thingy. And so im now looking at uninstalling, deleting the folders, re-starting the computer and then re-installing via impulse. :( At least another 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Well.... i guess there is not much choice. But i will back up my main folder from now on, just in case. Lesson learned the hard way. I guess that's the only ones we remember though, so i guess its not as big a deal as im making it. Thanks anyway, -Tea

:( unintentional, i need to reload ManShooter's Volumetric Explosions and Damage mod, the one with BailKnight's Graphics mod. The white you see, is the "lack" of the explosion data (mesh and textures i believe). Will fix it tonight and get a new version up. I will post it to FileFront. I will post back to let you know. :( Sorry, i feel bad, that is crappy to have happen in a game. -Teal

For StarBases? Ask Annatar, im not sure, but i thought if you create a race, say the "rats" but use the template (the playerwhatever.entity file and leave the call to the whatever race in the file, then the "rats" could get the starbase for the whatever race. I may just be dreaming here, but i thought that would work. I'm creating a race as well, and thought that worked. But i may be mixing it up with vanilla, where i made my own starbases, haha, home grown and not as fancy or c

Reply to Q: How to scale ship size in Sins & How to create an emerging Rebel faction. in Sins Modding Sins Forums

resizing meshes can be done with Newboerg's resize tool, located in the forum, its a great tool!!! Creating a rebel faction? Well, you look like you got a good start by converting the pirates to borg. The militia on the planets is in the galaxydef file i believe and adding your own race is a matter of creating a playerx.entity file, listing them in the string folder and i believe the galaxydef file again, several places, find the "Adding a Fourth Race" thread, very very go
