ExtraFuelTanks OXZ

[Smivs]

V1.7 now available. This should hopefully fix the issue with empty tank damage reported above by Cody. Thanks for the report.

[montana05]

I bought a Reserve Tank first, later upgraded it to an Auxiliary Tank and everything work fine until I bought an External Tank - empty. Now I got no access to the Auxiliary Tank but I am not able no sell or fill the External Tank. I am not sure if this is a bug in this OXP but any help would be appreciated.

I am using the latest version and tried to uninstall / install as well. I even tried to install manually but the result didn't change.

Hi montana05, and welcome to the Board.
This issue has come up before and TBH I thought it was fixed now - no such luck!
The External Tank is a feature of Clippers OXZ and is a sort of factory fitted version of the Extra tanks. It was included as an upgrade path for users of older versions of Clippers which did not feature the fixed tanks and should therefore never normally be seen. The two should be mutually exclusive - if you fly a Clipper you shouldn't be offered ExtraFuel Tanks, and if you don't have an old Clipper you should not be offered an external tank retrofit. It seems that this is still not working properly.
You will need to manually remove the External Tank. Open your save file in a text editor (but not notepad as it breaks things by adding unwanted characters to the code). Delete the relevant lines.

Code: Select all

	<key>EQ_LQG_TANK_EMPTY</key>
	<integer>1</integer>

and this should remove it.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply, I didn't believe my eyes when I found Oolite by accident online. When I was a teen I really was into it and its amazing how all of you improved the basic concept. Still fun to play and it brings back old memories.

However, unfortunately your fix is already in my file:

Hopefully you got some other ideas how to fix this annoying bug. I am currently flying a "Caduceus Omega" which up to my limited experience as newcomer is one of the best ships before they get "ueber".

[Smivs]

Yes, the lines you have highlighted are in the equipment listed for your ship. To remove the tanks you will need to delete those two lines from the file, then just don't buy them again if they are offered.
This is an unusual (and rare) problem which only seems to happen under certain circumstances with specific OXPs installed, so a fix is on the way, but I don't think it is worth releasing an update just for this. It will be sorted in the next update cycle (whenever that will be).
BTW, many of us around here consider the Caduceus to be quite 'Uber'. Any ship noticeably better than the standard BCC is stretching things a bit really, in my opinion.

[montana05]

Removed and, as you promised, problem fixed. All tanks are back to normal. Thanks for the quick and competent help.

I admit that a Caduceus is making your live a lot easier, most standard ships are easy to take out. However, as long as you got attackers who really offer a challenge I will stick with it. I might try the Imperial Star Destroyer in future just for fun.

[Smivs]

Another missing ';' somewhere - I'll sort it out ASAP.

[Smivs]

Looks like this might be an extra ',' (comma) rather than a semi-colon issue.
Can you go to line 45 in the equipment.plist and remove one of the two commas at the end of the line and see if that fixes it? If it does the trick I will get an updated version to the manager.
Thanks.

[Fleurghber]

Thanks, but I've tried to fix apparent errors of this type before: the computer doesn't seem to like my "improved" versions any better.

[Smivs]

v1.8 is now available.

Just a simple edit to the equipment.plist to avoid the mac parsing error. Thanks to Fleurghber for alerting me to this, and for helping check the fix.
