Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )
Can't you specify the module name then the item name, or vice versa? I'm sure I've seen a few files that do that. Or does it only work for Make/Create Actor functions, and not weapons/etc.?

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )
The problem is that when you save item, say, from inventory, you can't get it's module name, and you save just what you have PresetName and ClassName. And then when you need to create that item later, you've already lost info about it's module. I hink I could probably 'guess' the item's module by mass or some other properties, but it feels unreliable and will require many changes.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )
Is there a way to add items but not necessarily the entire mod?

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )
No, but you can add artifacts which you can later find in crates. Or you can add items to some faction file and set power to 0 to prevent AI from using them.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )
Currently black market just adds some random items with power > 6. I'll see if it's easy enough to add some random factionless items to shops.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B105 )
Yeah, I did that too, but considering the random nature of artifacts, I have no way of knowing if I did it right.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B109 - BOMBZ! )
Updated. Bombs - You can buy bombs in item shop - To request an orbital strike select LZ and press left or right. Select payload using UP,DOWN then press FIRE to start targeting. Press FIRE to start orbital strike - Payload capacity depends on number of bomb bays, each can hold up to 5 bombs - Bombs launched simultaneously by every bay - Orbital strike is less accurate when bombing unseen area - You can't sell bombs Also supports Major's Ul-Tex Limited out of the box, but some (most tasty ) bombs are disabled because they explode in UI. See VoidWanderers.rte\Extensions\Bombs_Basic.lua for an example on how to add bombs available to any faction. See Psyclones.lua for an example on how to add faction-specific bombs. Sorry folks, I don't have much time and patience now, so this is the only change in VW. More fixes and features are coming some day. Please report bugs if any.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B109 - BOMBZ! )
As I got a heavy coalition soldier from a crate while on some assassination mission, a prompt started popping up above the heavy soldier saying "LOST CONNECTION" and activating the weapon that it was holding. What's this about?
Also, should the enemy units in assassination be doing something? They just stand there waiting to be murdered.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B109 - BOMBZ! )
"Lost Connection" means you have too many units on the field for your communications level. I believe sending the brain down alleviates that.

Re: Void Wanderers ( Updated - B109 - BOMBZ! )
I was still able to control the actor, it just fired the held weapon every 1-2 second delay. Am I not supposed to be able to control it?
