Thank you, you are right, since I mainly using Windows I was strictly thinking this way. I hardly use Linux or Mac but I believe both loading in a kind of unpredictable way. According to the log ManagedAddons are loaded before AddOns. So please consider my suggestion as for Windows only, no guarantees for other OS.phkb wrote: ↑Tue Feb 12, 2019 9:39 pmExcept when they aren't...montana05 wrote:OXP/OXZ are handled alphabetically
I think on Windows this might be true, but I don't it's true on Linux or Mac. Also consider that OXZ's in the ManagedAddons folder will (I think) be loaded before any OXP/OXZ's in the AddOns folder.
However, giving your custom OXP the name "zzz.myname.oxp" is probably the best attempt you can make to get your OXP loaded last.

Re: Big Cannon
Can you explain this statement in more details?
Unix based OS such Linux or OS X are case-sensitive, but in OS X except this moment I always have just described order in log file:
All OXZs in alphabetical order
and following
All OXPs in alphbetical order.
Not remembering any exceptions.

@Commander_X
Thank you for explanation!
So it is Linux related issue. OS X seems safe in these terms IMHO.

Re: Big Cannon
Wow. . . That's probably overkill, but if the Heart of Gold can have so many lasers. . .
I'm much obliged to you. Can I ask as to the best manner of tweaking the mount points? Is this simply a case of changing to an external view in game and looking to see where the lasers are / where they're fired from?
Thanks,

Re: Big Cannon
Sorry for the late reply, somehow I missed your message. While multiple lasers look cool I always had problems with centering them. 2 lasers in close positions work well but obviously they are not separated. Any unequal number of laser will try to center on the middle one, not always successful. I think Norby got the most experience with this topic, maybe he could help.Ea9le1 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 13, 2019 5:40 pmWow. . .
