Call funtions and abilities for Mounts

Submitted by bearclaw on Wed, 2008-04-16 11:04. SE:V MODs

So I was very disappointed to discover that the Ability "Shield Modifier" does NOT work with mounts! SEIV allowed mounts to affect shield output but apparently SEV does not. Very disappointing.

Another thing I discovered (by trial and error) is that the functions Get_Vehicle_Size_Tonnage and Get_Vehicle_Type both say that they can only be used for vehicle size objects yet _Tonnage_ works with mounts but _Type_ does not.

This is taken from the Modding manual.

I'm just wondering if that manual is out of date from newer patches and/or if someone has done like Fyron had done for SEIV an

Adding new Miniaturization Theorectial tech

Submitted by bearclaw on Wed, 2008-04-16 11:17. SE:V MODs

I've added a new theorectical tech called Minitaurization. Right now, it's only purpose is the Miniaturization mount.

but a thought occured to me that I'm hoping for some feedback on.
Would it be a good idea if advancement in Miniaturization had a (relatively minor) effect on the size of facilities? By minor, I'm thinking at max level (10) it would be a 10%-20% reduction in facility kt size.

Official 501st Day!!

Submitted by bearclaw on Wed, 2008-04-16 13:43. Off-topic & Casual Conversations

As a member of the 501st (www.501st.com) I feel it is my duty to report to everyone that last year, George Lucas and Lucasfilm officially stated that May 1st is "501st Day" (5/01) in recognition for everything the 501st has done.

The week of May 1st, keep an eye out for the Boys In White around your area. We'll be out all over the country (Canada and US).

For those of you who don't know who the 501st are, we are a Stormtrooper costume club. Membership is simple: must own a replica Imperial costume of some sort.

Structure components.

Submitted by battlespud on Wed, 2008-04-16 14:59. SE:V MODs

Because the ship structure setting is unimplemented, i have a lot more work to do, i deceided to do this by putting in comps called {Race Ship Name} Structure or seomthing similar.
My wuestion is, how owuld i make these un-spammablke in other words, only one frigate structure goes on a frigate and cant be used by any other ship? Right now there is an individual one for each ship and race.
Ex.

Name := UNSC Frigate Structure
Description := A component used to represent a frigate class vessels structural stability. Only one per ship.

Energy weapon-only mount?

Submitted by bearclaw on Wed, 2008-04-16 16:24. SE:V MODs

I'm trying to create a mount that can only be used by energy weapons. Since there is no function to call the Delivery Type of a weapon, my thought was to add an AI tag to all energy weapons.

The problem I have with that is there doesn't appear to be a function to check for a specfic ability. Only totals or percents of an ability.

Any ideas on how to have a mount usable by only certain Delivery Types?

1.17/BM Weapons Platform Proliferation

Submitted by M--5 on Wed, 2008-04-16 22:42. Space Empires V General

I designed a unit (weapons platform), and now the identical design is showing up twice in my designs (same name & everything). This has happened twice & I'm sure it's not a duplication by me.
