A couple small problems.

I've been working on opening the ship and equipment dealers at planet gamma. After some work, I got some of the things I wanted to work but not all of them. I was hoping some of the better modders out there could help me out.

My problems:

1) I can get the equipment dealer to sell items but I can't get the base to repair my ship.

2) I'm trying to have the base sell ships. I can't get the ship dealer icon to show up. I changed the market_ships.ini and I was able to get one ship to show up when I'm looking at planetside but there should be three showing up.

Any ideas on what to change?

Thanks in advance.

the ini files of your base... like manhattan: li01_01_base.ini... There the different rooms are defined... And there you can add your repair icon

That is not komplitly ride.
The symbols you see on the top are devinied as hardpoints in the inis of the room you use. You should propaly take a look at them and see how it works.

You will most likely be needing a line similar to this in your equipment room:

[Hotspot
name = IDS_NN_REPAIR_YOUR_SHIP
behavior = Repair

This should fix that problem. And I definately agree that you should also look at other rooms on established bases to see how they use them and adapt them to your needs.

Well at least I pointed in the right direction lol

Ok, I had already looked at the other bases and tried to modify them to my needs for the repair and the shipdealer. I already added the repair hotspot and the shipdealer hotpsot... maybe there is a typo there some where but I'm 99% sure there isn't.

How about the shipdealer? Anyone have any ideas why only one of the 3 ships is showing up? Before I modded the base, there was already one of the "blue ring" animation that appears under a ship. Does that have anything to do with why I can only put the one ship? I mean there is a total of 4 landing pads, and only 2 of them have the little blue rings.

I don't know, my head hurts. Time to take a break from working on it.
