Ship size

Submitted by Gideon on Sat, 2006-10-21 14:29. SE:V MODs

I want to make the space taken and structure formula of engine componenets be influenced by the total tonnage capacity of the vehicle they will be placed on. What do I call to get the vehicle's tonnage from within the components file?

Ex: Get_Empire_Tech_Level("Ion Engines") calls the empire in question's Ion Engines tech level.

What calls the ship in question's current tonnage space?

Retail SE5 doesn't come with that file, or description_abilities, or any docs at all really.

Ability Description Files...

Submitted by Captain Kwok on Sun, 2006-10-22 00:03.

You can grab the "description" files from my site:

Note that the files are a bit outdated and are not 100% accurate...

In SEIV you could do that with mmounts... maybe you can do that here?

There are 10 types of people in the world:

Those that understand binary, and those that don't.
