Do you have a world-script in Config making a reference to this script? If not, then that is the reason you cannot see anything happening.Smivs wrote:It's in a folder called 'Scripts' in the .oxp folder.another_commander wrote:What exactly do you do with the script posted earlier?

Thanks, I think I know how to do that...I'll have a go.

this.shipWillExitWitchspace = function()

system.addShips(this.role, this.count, player.ship.position, 10000);

if (system.economy > 4 && system.government < 3)No, it is wrong having a semicolon at the end of that line. Unless JavaScript is different to C in that regard, a semicolon's presence there will generate buggy behaviour. I suggest you restart with Shift down.Smivs wrote:Edit:- It's OK, I think I've fixed it. There was a missing semi-colon afterCode: Select all

Just as a bit of lateral thinking here: If you want to take your control even further, you could go down the route of the infamous Zaonce/Eagle2 planetinfo.plist. More work, certainly, but it'd allow you to make certain areas be infested with your blockades while others are clear.Smivs wrote:Next problem....my team of crack test pilots like the pirate blockade, but don't think it should be every single planet, and I agree with this.
I would only like the blockade at Industrial worlds (economy >4), and stable governments (say govt type <3).

WitchpointBlockade 1.0.1The specs seem to be somewhat wrong. Industrial worlds have economy < 4 and stable governments should be above 3. The list of enumerations for the two attributes are as follows:Smivs wrote:I would only like the blockade at Industrial worlds (economy >4), and stable governments (say govt type <3).
So I've got my 'greaterthan' and ' lessthan' the wrong way round. Doh. This explains why I was chuffed to get a grade 4 CSE maths.
