[OLD] Old OXCE discussion thread

Biggest difference is that you can assign arbitrary value to healing time. If solder is robot, it will not need any time to heal.

Understood. Thank you very much. For my mod is extremely useful.

If solder is robot, it will not need any time to heal.

This is already available in OXCE+ as a tag on armor to determine whether or not a unit takes any wound time:

Code: [Select]

armors:
  - type: STR_ROBOT_ARMOR
    instantWoundRecovery: true

However, the script will be useful for reducing wound time on units used as HP tanks.

Exactly, scripts are for "custom" behaviors, like now wounds could count to recovery days or even heal up damage still counts.
You could make that for some armor only some type of damage do pernamet damage.

But this only "side effect" of changes I add, you can made that solder after each kill of some specific alien will grain 1 dmg bonus against same type in next battle.
Or after 10 missions it will take break for week (right now indistinguishable from "wounds" but in future I will add option to change this).

New version 4.0 us up:

I installed the latest OXCE+, but game keeps telling me, that it is version 3.10b. Have I done somethring wrong?

Yankes released version 4.0 of OXCE. Meridian's OXCE+ is currently in version 3.10b.

CTD when moving items in the inventory (when opened from the craft equipment screen in the basescape).

Please hotfix.

[Yankes]

Any more bugs or things to change? Only this, did you find?

I found a few small things, but I'm not finished merging yet, hopefully by the end of this week I can give more feedback.

Fixed version ready: https://github.com/Yankes/OpenXcom/commits/OpenXcomExtended

Thx.

[Meridian]

So, I am more or less finished with merging.
So far, I didn't get any new crashes after clicking through the game for about 2-3 hours.

I found a few things:
1/ it's not possible to manufacture both craft and items in the same project anymore... but I checked a few mods and it is not used anymore as far as I can say... so OK for me

2/ there is an unused Base parameter here: https://github.com/Yankes/OpenXcom/blob/OpenXcomExtended/src/Savegame/Transfer.h#L67
(not sure if implementation is missing or parameter is not needed)

3/ there is probably a merge typo here?: https://github.com/Yankes/OpenXcom/blob/OpenXcomExtended/src/Geoscape/DogfightState.cpp#L1098
Vanilla has

Code: [Select]

newMission->start(newMission->getRules().getWave(0).spawnTimer); // fixed delay for first scout
OXCE has

Code: [Select]

newMission->start(mission->getRules().getWave(0).spawnTimer); // fixed delay for first scout
[/code]

4/ DEBUG mode in Ufopedia doesn't show all articles anymore

[Yankes]

1/ I recall place in code that previously prevent adding items if it build craft. This mean if I'm right you could not use it correctly before.
This line: https://github.com/SupSuper/OpenXcom/blob/master/src/Savegame/Production.cpp#L133
2/ Right now not used, It will be used when I add hangars types (side effect of rebase that remove it from this release).
3/ Right, typo.
4/ I do not recall changing any thing that could affect this. This could be missmerge or change from nightly. I will look on this too.

Thanks for your findings

Looks like a forgotten parameter after refactoring.
Here's a fix: https://github.com/MeridianOXC/OpenXcom/commit/e19f743eacff1871d5bd5dd02da0ae09d0699582

5/ And one more, "requiresBuy" in RuleItem didn't work at all, here's a fix: https://github.com/MeridianOXC/OpenXcom/commit/7a2543c1cd0caa5e84a5158973cef8f1f7922f34

[Yankes]

Thanks for findings

Download it? (link to mediafire is in first post). This is replacement for recent nightly. If you have already installed new nighlty you can drop my exe in folder where nightly have its own exe.

...okay, I don't know why, but I can't wrap my head around this.  Again, how do I download Open XCom Extended?
