I don't know.... I mean, I would definitely be 'religious' if there were 'deities' whose existence was so obvious as Domina's - I mean all those powers?! :lol: Who wouldn't 'believe' in the existence of Domina, if they could literally ask for help and then, imagine, ACTUALLY GET IT? As opposed to ou...

What exactly is a nonCritical attribute? I mean, I think I've read someplace that it means a ship won't be destroyed if that section of armor is reduced to zero; but what are those variants, i.e. nonCritical="cargo", "general", "tactical" and whatnot? Also, if you keep blasting just 1 section of the...

Perhaps if the exchange ratios were outrageous.... like if you only got, say, 20% of your money's worth, both ways. Say, you buy some rins for 10000 creds, but then you can only buy back 400 creds with those rins.

hmm if noone else is interested, I could make you a 'currency exchange office' station in no time... but I think it doesn't exist for a reason. Even the Teratons make gaining as much rins as you possibly need, quite an easy task. Buy plenty of level 7 weapons at Thors, sell at Teratons - and that's ...

my thoughts exactly... mission accelerator and customizable dock screens would be awesome.....

as a parameter to have an AI ship randomly missing.

Okay, so if fireAccuracy is "95" but aimTolerance is "90" (degrees) - which of them has precedence? At any rate, one of them sounds superfluous.

Are there any other sites with Transcendence mods, except Xelerus?

Particularly, are there any mods around that put to good use the following amazing graphics by dvlenk6 and OddBob?

I'm guessing aimTolerance is the maximum angle (or a modifier to the maximum angle) at which an ai considers a target to be shootable. It seems to be used in spread or randomized-shot-angle configurations. To make a weapon with a targeting arc, maybe try the minFireArc and maxFireArc Weapon attribu...

I *think* that it's how much the weapon will move to hit a target. Like if you've got a Corsair slightly to the left of where your gun is pointed, it'll nudge itself over a tiny bit so the bullet hits. I'm not totally sure, but that's my theory. That was my theory as well but then you could make it...

it means it is an alien device.

I gathered as much but what does it mean from the gameplay perspective? Does it affect where you can find it, buy it, anything?

What exatcly is 'aimTolerance' attribute in the <Configuration> tag? Why does it always seem to be set to 5?

Ahh, the friendly fire problem. I have suggested a 'solution' to this problem over at the unofficial forums Pseudo 3D - some people liked the idea, others didn't .... I would definitely like something along those lines - because, by the very nature of the game, your autons and wingmen are always rel...

Very useful, many thanks. BTW, so 'Alien' means you can't find it in human space? What does it mean exactly? I mean what exactly is the definition of 'human space'? Does it mean entire systems, including hostile encounters and their loots? Independent merchants?

Not sure about this... you are trying to give orders to the newly created ship? Maybe it's not fully initialized at the time of the OnCreate event? In any case, personally I would solve problems of this type by calling sysAddObjTimerEvent with a delay of a few ticks, perhaps even just 1 tick if it n...

Bobby and I have extensively improved upon his "rama and mule upgrade" mod in order to bring you... Haven't got time to test this yet but it sounds awesome. Always wanted more wingmen support, esp. that 'hold position' thing, instead of having Rama shredded to pieces by a large fleet of Ares... esp...
