Awesome! I'm dying to test this out Anton - you will be my hero if it works =)

Uhm......why not simply have the script utilize already exisitng loadouts from the \SOLAR\loadout.ini???

EG: nickname = rm_Roid_Miner_co_01 - > rm_Roid_Miner_co_04? The only difference between the 4 are the type of turrets used in each mount, the rest of the equipment is exactly identical.

(Having _just_ finished teaching the loadouts.ini file a leason in INHERITance, I'm somewhat adverse to seeing data propigated needlessly.)

In fact, your listed is an exact duplicate of rm_Roid_miner_co_04.

Forgot to change that... Was v happy it worked and popped it on a disk so i could post it tonight... That however is also exactly what worked for me and, as i said, only a test to be tried... Guess it can be tweaked later when we know if it works in MP game or not

True enough. I'll certainly be testing it against my project (which should be wrapped up _very_ soon now).

I'm certainly hopefull that this works with the changes I've made, since I'd rather not have to redo anything I've just done.

***
(I used to think that the commentaries about Glock going of the deep end when annotating files was just a humor play, a gag bit. Now, I'm dead certain that it's utterly serious.)
***

Note the caps on inheritance. You'll see what I mean.

also, on roid_miners......"equip = mining_ship_engine_sound," for the Roids, but not for the regulars? (Note the , at the end). Significant? Perhaps so.

***
Last edit, I promise, don't anybody shoot me!

Why is it that the loadout for the regular weapons_platform includes archetype = wplatform, but the loadout for the small_weapons_platform doesn't have an archetype declaration?

I don't know why Anton, but it still is not working for me - no weapons are showing up on the solars. Maybe it's because I'm only doing it in MP - I'll try it in SP and see if it works there for me.

*pout* d*mn it! i was letting solars shoot me last night...

I'm trying to test it with OpenSP, but my freelancer crashes as soon as I click on "New Game". . . I've never actually used OpenSP before. hmm, maybe I'll try Chips version instead of Xerx. . .

I have a tweaked version of Starfyre Studios OpenSP running with my mod and it works fine there... Are you using 1.1 or 1.0 server? I'm working with 1.0 setup and SDK installed to FL directory...

Hope you can get some joy from this Wasabe, I'm gonna hit the hay as have to work again in 7 hours I'll be back on Friday

The problem was with my saved games folder - I moved it and now OpenSP works great. And guess what?? It works! The Solars had weapons!

So it looks like it works great in SP, but just not in MP. =(

Though, now that I know that, maybe I can figure out why it won't work in MP - I'll have to think about it. . .

great work Anton!
I hope the MP part can also be solved.
I will have a look at all those weaponplatforms and bases, maybe i can figure out something or get a weird idea to make it work...

Yay! Vindication that SP works! Boo! Not working on MP!

Hope you have some joy there Fjord. I should have inet back next week or so (glastonbury festival first for those that know it - much joy )
