The Assassins Guild OXP (Non-Functional 2007 Version)

[Tool]

next question

My current mission:

"ensure that Supergrass Bi`Xeanu never enters the witness box in the Estiri system."

Well, I made it to destroy this court ship besides the Estiri military station an I made it to deposit.

But nothing happens. The mission still stands in my ships manifest. Did I miss something? What?

thanks!

Are you sure you got the right ship? Pretty sure the code's okay, but you need to destroy the Aeron Class Frigate not the Battle Bot Control Drones. It should show as a Guild Target when you target it with your ID computer.

And there is the missing moraytug in shipdata. Can be c&p'd from tugs.oxp. Then, however, its model should be changed to moray_redux.dat (or moray_redux1.dat), if you don't want to c&p the model and texture of the Moray Transporter as well.

I am getting this error too. I have downloaded tugs.oxp and c&p'd the moraytug entry. Not sure what you mean about the models though, I can't see anything with that name in assassins or tugs?

Just for the record 1.73 trunk complains

Yes, that’s the bug I pointed out here and here. :-)

Stumbled across a bug in "newbug2AI.plist" (no pun intended ).

In state "LOOK_FOR_TARGETS7", instead of

Code: Select all

        "NOTHING_FOUND" = ("HEAD_FOR_PLANET"); 

it has to read

Code: Select all

        "NOTHING_FOUND" = ("setStateTo: HEAD_FOR_PLANET"); 

Or, in the log's words:

[ai.unpermittedMethod]: Handler "NOTHING_FOUND" for state "LOOK_FOR_TARGETS7" in AI "newbug2AI.plist" uses "HEAD_FOR_PLANET", which is not a permitted AI method. In a future version of Oolite, this method will be removed from the handler. If you believe the handler should be a permitted method, please report it to [email protected].

Nice, informative log-entry, by the way. Thanks to the devs!

There's a couple of issues with the latest release of Assassins' Guild against the current trunk.

Firstly it's impossible to complete the mission with the nova bomb. The nova bomb gets triggered as soon as it's carrier gets killed, making it impossible to jump out of the area in time.

Secondly the log features the following error message at startup:

Code: Select all

[shipData.load.begin]: Loading ship data...
   [shipData.load.error]: ***** ERROR: the shipdata.plist entry "powerdown1" specifies non-existent model "cobra3_redux1.dat".

Code: Select all

[shipData.load.begin]: Loading ship data...
   [shipData.load.error]: ***** ERROR: the shipdata.plist entry "powerdown1" specifies non-existent model "cobra3_redux1.dat".

The name has changed between v1.72->v1.73 to "cobra3_redux.dat". You'll get the same with buoyRepair and probably other oxps too. So, change the shipdata.

[Zieman]

Or make a copy of the "cobra3_redux.dat" in your ..\Resources\Models -folder and name it "cobra3_redux1.dat".

Or make a copy of the "cobra3_redux.dat" in your ..\Resources\Models -folder and name it "cobra3_redux1.dat".

That will be wrong as both files point to different texture files. However, I think it was the intention to roll back the removal of those files. Several others are already put back in trunk and I assume this one will be back in a release version also.

[JensAyton]

Hmm. It was supposed to be restored in December along with the rest. In any case, it was not removed in 1.73 or any other release.

Yupp, you're right. Only in trunk it was(is?) missing. Was it because of the vertex/face normals?

[JensAyton]

No, it was removed because having two identical models with different textures is no longer necessary, since you can use a single model and the materials dictionary instead. It’s back now for the OXPs that use it, though.

I hope I don't annoy anyone with this question! I would understand if it is not answered. Jurer ner gur Frperg zvffvbaf? V unir pbzcyrgrq gjvpr vg ohg fgvyy pna'g svaq gurz.

I loved this mission and would like to thank LittleBear for an excellent oxp.
