Ive made a new ship (st.oxp posted earlier) but since ive updated the model it fails to work. All ship names related to this were altered in the plists. I fail to see what the error is, anyway here is my latest log file. I am hoping one of you kind peeps can tell me where i need to be looking.

OK ...

"weapon_position_port", "weapon_position_starboard" don't work (yet) - perhaps this might be implemented at some point, but atm you can take that out. Shouldn't break anything though.

The rest - seems as if you did open "dict" sometimes without re-closing it "/dict", and that you put "key" entries where "string" should have been.

Perhaps it would help if you published your whole shipdata.plist here. I have different versions from you from the st and ste oxps, but they all differ from each other ... better to have one specific shipdata.plist to concentrate on and get to work!

Leave it in. It will be working in 1.73.

Specifically I would look in the shipdata.plist at the key immediately before the smooth one. It looks like the value for that key is either missing or malformed, and it's screwing up the rest of the list interpretation.

But as Lestradae says, if you can post up the shipdata.plist (between code tags) then it should be easier to diagnose.

Another interesting question is why is the search-path list not in alphabetical order? Is it depending on the systems settings?

:shock:

That's quite relevant information :D

Is this already doable with the present trunk revision?

Very good idea imo! 8)

Yes, current trunk has it implemented.

That plist did have missing values for the key, it was a rehashed version of someone else's plist as an ongoing attempt to get my model working.

I'm not the plist wizard to instantly see the problem. However, there's a feature which might make things a bit easier for you:

Code: Select all

      <key>like_ship</key>
      <string>shipname</string>
This especially does help with player and NPC versions for ships. You will then only have to write the common values once, as the other version can use like_ship to reference these. Should you change one value which both use, both ships will be updated to the new value. That helps to keep consistency where both versions should have the same stats / exhaust positions and such.

One side comment, you've got the Planetfall hOopy casino link extension installed but not the hOopy casino OXP itself, which is needed for it to actually work and the casino to appear planet-side.
