Weapon's not showing up in buy list
Sorry for the seemingly n00b question, but I downloaded Azukki's gun template, and I made a copy of it on the same template directory. Now I've added it to the index.ini, but I don't know why it isn't showing up under 'Gun Template' in the buy list. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Top part? What do you mean by that?

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
He doesn't. I recommend, first off, changing the directory name (make sure that it's still *.rte) and changing all of the .ini's references to that new directory name. Now, for something to show up in the buy menu you need the following:
* An HDFirearm definition that doesn't include "Buyable = 0" * An IncludeFile = yourfilename.ini in the index.ini, or in a file that the index.ini loads.
Also, are you sure that you didn't just change some variables and forget to change the sprite or name?
Try to include more detail. We can help you better that way.

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
Okay, I changed the sprite it was using, it didn't contain 'buyable = 1', but neither did the weapon I copied it off. Still not working.
EDIT: I've changed the module name, problem still persists.

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
For clarification: You added an additional weapon the template, and while the original template weapon loads, yours doesn't? The game has no errors on startup? Is all of your weapon code in its own .ini? If so, make certain that it is included.
If it doesn't bother you, you could just post a .zip/.rar of your code as an attachment for debugging help.

EDIT 2: I noticed when the game is loading, when it lists all of the .inis etc, it does not seem to notice this particular weapon.

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
Can you please upload the entire Mod. It's kind of defeating the purpose without it.

Yep, that's exactly what I was thinking.

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
Alright, I'm stumped. I just don't understand what the fudge is wrong with it. I've tried everything to my knowledge and the other gun just won't mother fudging show up.

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
I noticed two things right off in your index.ini. First, one of the IncludeFile's (XK12Marksman.ini) was "tabbed" twice, and it only needs to be tabbed once. Second, the "tabs" for that line don't appear to be tabs at all, but spaces. Try re-tabbing your index. IncludeFile's are only one tab under the DataModule, and don't have/need any subordinate code. tl;dr It was this Code: IncludeFile = Whatever IncludeFile = UEC Arsenal.rte/XK-12 Marksman/XK12Marksman.ini It should be this Code: IncludeFile = Whatever IncludeFile = UEC Arsenal.rte/XK-12 Marksman/XK12Marksman.ini

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
Oh, god, I just woke up and opened up CC and it's just not working, first it said there was a problem at line 5 in index.ini, so I removed that line, then that error was fixed, but now it says 'could not match property in UEC Arsenal/XK-12/XK12.ini at line 1'.
Thought process, could you just edit the .ini in a way that it works and then post it in a snippet please? I'm not quite sure what you mean...

Re: Weapon's not showing up in buy list
You referenced a nonexistent .ini in your index. That's the problem that was causing the problems in the other .ini's
As you can see, having a bad index screws up your entire mod. And the Cortex Command line reader sucks pretty badly.
I fixed it for you. Make sure to avoid referencing things that don't exist. Enjoy.
