Would scenarios also work for different TERRAIN or MAP files or other files or Ressources?Mods can refer to one another's *files* without any problems. For example, if some enabled mod (yours or anyone else's) has a file named MAPS/URBAN18.MAP, you can refer to that file in your mod as MAPS/URBAN18.MAP. This is just as it was before when everything was in the same directory. The only problem is with referring to another mod's sprite indices. If you declare the extraSprites in your own mod, even if the images themselves are coming from another mod's files, that will work just fine too, though.
Is there a private build where we can test the translations?you mean the nightly?
Maybe so. I just didn't want to change things unless absolutely sure it's necessary. I'd like to hear more opinions first.After seeing how effective flamethrowers are on sectopods, I sold all my lasers and just took a few flamethrowers on all my crafts. As they currently stand, I consider the entire laser lineup to be fairly useless. I'm just glad when the aliens are wielding them because it means they'll miss : )
Please run it through your beastie.sure thing. attached.
[sarcasm]Thanks, why haven't I thought of that.Hrm, perhaps it would have been more useful of me to just attach the fixed version..[/sarcasm]
BEGIN { inExtraStrings=0 }
/^extraStrings/ { inExtraStrings=1 }
/^ +STR_/ { if ( 1 == inExtraStrings ) { $0 = gensub(/^([^:]+: *)([^\"]*)$/, "\\1\"\\2\"", -1) } }
{ print $0 }
tr -d '\r' <FinalModPack.rul | awk -f quotify.awk | sed 's/$/\r/g' >FinalModPack.corrected.rul
Yeah, I'm gradually adding them too, but it's too massive a job to do it straight away.it's actually not that hard with the right tools. here's a GNU awk script that can do it for you in one go:
BEGIN { inExtraStrings=0 }
/^extraStrings/ { inExtraStrings=1 }
/^ +STR_/ { if ( 1 == inExtraStrings ) { $0 = gensub(/^([^:]+: *)([^\"\r]*)\r?$/, "\\1\"\\2\"", -1) } }
{ print $0 }
If you put that code in a file, say "quotify.awk", you can fix the ruleset like this:awk -f quotify.awk <FinalModPack.rul >FinalModPack.rul.corrected
I think I have researched guys like them already... so maybe you cannot research them twice??I'm pretty sure this is correct -- if researching an alien will give you no benefit (all ufopedia entiries that the alien could unlock are already unlocked), the alien doens't appear as a potential research topic. A nice enhancement here is to add that info the alien containment screen so you know who you can safely evict.
It's kinda weird that I'm not seeing the popup when nobody else is. I'll just assume it's a quirk in the nightly or in the way I installed it.it doesn't get displayed in a popup. it gets displayed on the summary page after a battle completes.
Version 1.5.2 is online.w00t! : ) thanks! downloading now!
