There is a typo in this thread's title, I think. Tergeter should be targeter.

I've just read your Targeter_readme.txt, and here is my suggestion for a corrected version:

Code: Select all

v0.4

Targeter is an upgrade to the ship Target System to cycle targeting between hostile or pacific ships and cargoes.
It is a more expensive and complicated alternative for "Target System Memory Expansion".

Price: 3100 Cr.
Techlevel: 12

Use keys: "Shift+n" for select the Targeter as prime equipment,
          than "b" for mode change and than "n" for cycle targeting.

Requires equipment: Scanner Targeting Enhancement, Multi-Targeting System

Enjoy ;)


Requires v1.77 !!! (for "mode button")

P.S.: this OXP works much better in union WITH the cool OXPs "Target Autolock",
      "SniperLock" and "Police IFF Scanner Upgrade" - it is very convenient to see
      the current target (and it's type) in the scanner.


BIG thanks to author of "Police IFF Scanner Upgrade" - Capt Murphy, his code inspired me to create this OXP.

Also, I'm not sure about the use of the word "pacific"... I thought in a military-like context one uses "hostile/friendly", but like I said, I'm not sure... and I also really don't mind

Will read the other files now.

EDIT1:

Here my suggestion for "Targeter_license.txt"

Code: Select all

EDIT2 + EDIT3
Entry in "equipment.plist":

Code: Select all

(
  (
    1, 31000, "Target System Upgrade",
    "EQ_ENEMY_TARGETER_UPGRADE",
    "Upgrade to the ships Target System that allows to cycle targeting between hostile or pacific ships and cargoes. It is a more expensive and complicated alternative for the Target System Memory Expansion.",
    {
      "available_to_all" = 1;
      "script" = "eq_enemy_targeter.js";
      "requires_equipment" = ("EQ_SCANNER_SHOW_MISSILE_TARGET","EQ_MULTI_TARGET");
    }
  ),
  (
    1, 100, "Sell Target System Upgrade",
    "EQ_ENEMY_TARGETER_UPGRADE_REMOVAL",
    "Sell TSU. You get a 90% refund.",
    {
      "available_to_all" = 1;
      "requires_equipment" = "EQ_ENEMY_TARGETER_UPGRADE";
    }
  )
)

Note: I noticed that you get 90% of the purchase price back when you sell the equipment, and I thought that should be mentioned in the description.

maybe "hostile/neutral" ?
