Yes, that was my point but re-reading it now it seems it was worded poorly.
Until now, we've been marking our xmls with the previous stable version and from now on we should be using the next stable version.

Re: Help with lists
The code I posted uses a local var. Example of setting the var "foo" as a global var (block nil (setq foo 1) ) foo will be accessible anywhere anytime but if multiple sources are modifying it often you cannot rely on it being what you expect in some circumstances. Example of setting the var "foo" as...

Re: Using data field in a stargate node
Stargates are tied between two nodes, you can't change where they lead.
You will have to create a new gate to change the destination node.

Re: Help with lists
I would recommend saving CharonStationRand as a local variable rather than a global variable as multiple instances will collide and overwrite any previous values. It is probably not your issue but is a good habit to not use the global unless necessary. <OnCreate> (block nil (sysAddObjRecurringTimerE...

Re: Dynamic Systems
1. If I can't build stations, how am I going to increase a sov's presence in the system? Why can't you build stations? The other alternative is ships. I'm not really sure how you want it to work so I can't help there. 2. How do I 'jump' retaliation level? Do I create a list of ships that will do th...

Re: Help with lists
The example you posted seems fine.
You're saying that the list returned only contains one item, the last one?
Can you paste more of the actual code? Perhaps there is something funny going on in another line.

Re: Extension versions
Essentially, the version number in the xml signifies the highest version of mod that should be compatible. 1.0 will run most mods up to 1.0 (0.99c,b, 98 etc.) but won't have any of the new features past that. 1.1 will be required to run mods from 1.01 to 1.1 and in most cases lower version mods. I t...

Re: installing 0HP armor on player causes strange stuff + cr
IF you put 0hp armor on your ship in the xml definition, the game crashes on system generation with the following error:
"Silly wabbit, you can't use tissue paper for your forward bulkhead!"
Weird, huh?

Re: Need Advice
1)made one 2)made one 3)made one 4)haven't made one Adding device slots is WAY OP. There is no way to balance it, don't try. You can include it in a mod but please mark it as a godmod if you release it. I have devices in VUI that auto scan stations at range. IT is very handy and can be balanced with...

Re: Wingmen Going Too Far
Modifying wingmen behaviour is a simple task of overwriting the event handler they inherit from. IT would be a trivial addition to add some code to prevent them from moving too far off. (and (gr (objGetDistance gSource gPlayerShip) 100) (not (eq behavior 'waiting)) ) (block nil (shpCancelOrders gSou...

Re: [Help/Advice] Creating Ships and Sending them to War
Your problem is: (objGetPosition ...) is not a function, you want (objGetPos ...) Whenever something spawns on the sun, the position is returning Nil. Sun = Nil (In vector position terms) 'Attack = "Attack" They are interchangeable in many circumstances. Anything within double quotes is recognized a...

Re: Dynamic Systems
Sorry, I was rushing in the earlier post so I will break down the code now.

Re: Dynamic Systems
You can make a ship act like a ferian using the "ferian" controller. Place this code inside your mining station: <Ships> <Ship count="3d6" class="[yourMiningShip]" orders="mine" controller="ferian"/> </Ships> IF you want to get more advanced you'll have to write an event handler. Spawning squads: (b...

Re: [Help/Advice] Creating Ships and Sending them to War
In your station you'll need two events: <Events> <OnCreate> ;; start a timer that runs every 100 secs to send out ships (sysAddObjRecurringTimerEvent 1500 gSource 'Attack) </OnCreate> <Attack> ;; spawn code goes here </Attack> </Events> As for finding an appropriate target: (setq target (random (sys...
