need help adding shipdealers

Fri Jun 06, 2003 4:03 pm by ScrapIron

Does anyone know how to add shipdealers to stations that don't have them? For example I am trying to add one to Newark station(Li01_08_base), I know that changing the ships sold at bases already having ship dealers would be easier, but I'm trying to get someingthing more factionally realistic. I have edited the Li01_08_base.ini file by adding the following code:

[Room
nickname = ShipDealer
file = Universe\Systems\Li01\Bases\Rooms\Li01_08_shipdealer.ini

and created Li01_08_shipdealer.ini in the \Rooms directory, its code being:
[Room_Info
set_script = Scripts\Bases\li_06_Deck_hardpoint_01.thn
scene = all, ambient, Scripts\Bases\li_06_Deck_ambi_int_01.thn
animation = Sc_loop

[Spiels
CommodityDealer = manhattan_commodity_spiel
EquipmentDealer = manhattan_equipment_spiel

[Room_Sound
ambient = ambience_deck_space_smaller

[PlayerShipPlacement
name = X/Shipcentre/01

[Camera
name = Camera_0

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_DECK
behavior = ExitDoor
room_switch = Deck

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_BAR
behavior = ExitDoor
room_switch = Bar

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_COMMODITYTRADER_ROOM
behavior = VirtualRoom
room_switch = Trader

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_EQUIPMENTDEALER_ROOM
behavior = VirtualRoom
room_switch = Equipment

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_SHIPDEALER_ROOM
behavior = VirtualRoom
room_switch = ShipDealer

[Hotspot
name = IDS_NN_REPAIR_YOUR_SHIP
behavior = Repair
virtual_room = Deck

[Hotspot
name = IDS_DEALER_FRONT_DESK
behavior = FrontDesk
state_read = 1
state_send = 2
virtual_room = Trader

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_COMMODITYTRADER
behavior = StartDealer
state_read = 2
state_send = 1
virtual_room = Trader

[Hotspot
name = IDS_DEALER_FRONT_DESK
behavior = FrontDesk
state_read = 1
state_send = 2
virtual_room = Equipment

[Hotspot
name = IDS_HOTSPOT_EQUIPMENTDEALER
behavior = StartEquipDealer
state_read = 2
state_send = 1
virtual_room = Equipment

[Hotspot
name = IDS_EQUIPMENT_ROOM_RIGHT
behavior = MoveRight

state_send = 1
virtual_room = Equipment

I have modified the starting room for this station (in this case the Deck) to add the Hotspot for the shipdealer yet there is no dealer when I land there. If anyone could help me out I'd appreciate it.

Thanks Dan, I also wanted to mention I added the base to the marketships.ini file. Just to ward off any messages about that.

I got it, I just have to clean up some of the buttons. Right now after you visit the ship dealer, an icon to buy ships appears under the commodity and equipment dealer. This can be cleared up by going back to the launch deck then back to the equipment dealer but I will fix this up and post it either here or the tutorials.

I have done the same thing in my mod. You have to add the HotKeys to the shipdealer in each room for the base.
