Chips, Pls read this.. having trouble with some advice you g

Hey,

A couple days ago I asked you how i could make a thruster that you could not unmount.. you said "Erm, simply put it this way. You have an entry per thruster in the "equip.ini" file (st_equip.ini file that is). That is the part that tells it what its like etc. The entry in the "goods.ini" file is the part that you can "see" or "sell" or "transfer" (st_good.ini), so if you have an entry in st_equip.ini and NOT in st_good.ini, then the thruster can be mounted on a ship when you buy it (specify in the goods.ini package), but they cannot remove/fiddle/sell/transfer it. It works perfectly well, they just cannot do anything about it. You can make as many thrusters as you like using this method, certainly one per ship, and do this "

And it worked good, I got all the thrusters in the game and they all worked awsome. 1 problem though the little "mount or unmount" icon in the top right corner of the thruster icon is still there, and when you click on it "would usually unmount it" the game crashes. Is there any way I can remove that "unmout" icon so you can't crash your game?

TIA!

EDIT: No emoticons in the subject line please.

you really removed the goods.ini entries?
in that case you shouldnt see any thrusters at all. you cant buy or sell them anymore - only set it up with a server tool or by the ship packages.

Must admit - you shouldn't see any image there at all. You could remove the old entry from the shiparch for the thruster hardpoint, so you cannot even see the hardpoint either , but i made guns this way and never had a problem.....
