[quote who="tairos" reply="120" id="3051448"]Apologies if this is written somewhere, but what ship can I use to capture neutral resource asteroids in this mod?

Full list: Gallofree transport (Rebel), Hajen (NR), Botajef Armed Freighter (Republic), C9799 Transport (CIS), and Gladiator SD (Imps).

Entrenchment hasn't changed at all really; NU works fine for that expansion.

I'll give you the buff file as I can't explain myself well . The ability works, even the current autocast system works, but it is not an ideal system, which is what I am trying to find. With an individual ship it works as intended, but when you have mutiple ships it does not. The chain idea is a good one, I'll have to look into that.

How is the buff set up?[/quote] It does work; I'm looking for a better autocast setup. You see, ApplyTargettedBuffToSelf is "effected" or "set off" by other ships, i.e. if a nearby friendly frigate has shield damage, the caster ship will move to that frigate in order to use this shield restore ability, even though this will not work, be

Alright so, I have an ability that restores X shields per second for the caster only. The ability works well, when fired manually, but I'm trying to get a good autocast going; using an ApplyBuffToSelf with ShieldDamageExceedsAmount as aiUseTargetCondition and/or aiUseTime does not seem to want to work for whatever reason. Any advice would be appriciated. Here's a paste for the current setup ; it's not the greatest as it is

Reply to Novus Universum Mod - We have moons! in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Your problem is the Gameplay.constants file... Odds are it's something Nova overlooked or something that was added in a Diplomacy update after NU's release. What the error means is that at line 598 there should be "breakRelationshipThreshold:Trade ##" but it sees that the line reads "offerOrAcceptTreatyHappinessThreshold:Trade 2.5", causing a crash.

Reply to [SotF] Improving the AI in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Is it just me, or does the AI seem to flat out stop researching around an hour and a half into the game? It's really weird; even with all the pre-reqs they don't research them all. It might be that the AI simply runs out of money due to buying new ships, but it disturbs me. Actually I think it might be due to a lack of cash... As I did first test this with cash not being an issue; I'll look into this some more.

Get the reference files instead (at bottom of the page), assuming you mean unmodded Sins. Then, even though it still has a .constants file extension, open it in Notepad.

Reply to [MOD] TotalEffects Complete Particle Conversion mod for Diplomacy 1.034 UPDATE 12/17/11 in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hiya, I was looking over AExplosionLarge.particle and AExplosionVacuum.particle, for Ent, and noticed that it referenced some files that don't exist (in the mod's folders or Sins' itself), namely atmocloud1.tga and Blueray.dds. For the former, there is a .dds version in the mod's files and for the latter, there's a .tga version in Sins' folders. The lack of atmocloud1.dds can cause a bunch of black boxes to fly instead of smoke coming out.
