  Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned.Ah, I think I understand now.
Couldn't you just make the dropship cost 250, and make the mech subtract 500 on creation? Code: function Create(self) self.CurrentF = ActivityMan:GetActivity():GetTeamFunds(self.Team); ActivityMan:GetActivity():SetTeamFunds(self.CurrentF - 500, self.Team); end You could also avoid lua altogether and just give the delivery ship 33 starting hp.

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. CC's solution is still better, though I wonder... Would changing the gold cost work better? I've never tried it to see if you get a different gold amount on return.

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. Ah, just saw Cave's solution. Probably best.
Can't change GoldValue. Code: ERROR: the attribute 'ACDropShip.GoldValue' is read only |

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. Thanks, all, for thinking with me. I'll try your script as a final try, CrazyMLC.
It will undoubtly allow players to have -250 oz, but I guess UniTec can give loans once in a while. CaveCricket's solution is probably the best, but I am afraid that after the dropship gibs into this new dropship the new dropship won't deliver its cargo and just hovers about. |

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. Just have it go to a certain altitude then open doors, then return. With Lua ofc.

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. Oops.
Code: function Create(self) self.CurrentF = ActivityMan:GetActivity():GetTeamFunds(self.Team); if self.CurrentF > 499 then ActivityMan:GetActivity():SetTeamFunds(self.CurrentF - 500, self.Team); else print("Not enough funds!"); self.ToDelete() = true; end end You could probably fix that with AIModes.

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. So you loose 250oz when you don't have enough?

Code: ERROR: the attribute 'ACDropShip.GoldValue' is read only The lua property is Goldcost (with that capitalization) but I don't see how that'd make any difference. Just have your script spam Controller.MOVE_UP when the second dropship spawns. Easy, quick, effective. |

Re: Order dropship @ 750 oz, get 250 back when returned. Why tell it to be moved if you can set it to having a vertical velocity?
Is the current method this? Buy expensive ship with nothing in it, replace with cheaper ship with mech in it? |
