Infocard Problem

Hi all -

I have created upgradeable armors and am trying to finish the infocards for them. I have created the custom IDS_NAMES and IDS_INFO values, and have created 4 infocards. It all works, except for one detail. In the equipment dealer I'd like to have the description, info on the left, and the stats on the right. I can only get one info card to work, mainly the description.

It does not allow me to create the STATS section on the right. The description shows up fine, but fills the entire window. I have searched high and low on this site to try and resolve this problem, but am at my wits end here! Can someone help?

Thanks!

Stats? I think the 'stats' which automatically appear on the right hand side for guns/missiles etc - I think you will find those are somehow 'linked' via the [gun or [ammo section headers (although I don't know - just guessing)...

What 'stats' would you add for armor though? Because you can align text to the left, right or center - and also change its fonts/colour, bold etc.

Thanks for the reply. I wanted to add Hull Strength +x% to the stats area. It looks like all items in the equipment dealer have a description on the left and stats on the right. I guess I could add the 'stat' to the description and just have it fill the whole window. I kinda wanted it to look the same as all the other equipment, though.

Thanks again!

You know... my purpose for creating these mods was to add more to the game without installing these fancy mods that I don't like (they change way too much stuff and make things super powerful). However, I just discovered your evolutions mod that seems to add just the things I wanted. It does, however, go a bit beyond what I wanted. However, it looks like it would be fun to play!

Going to give it a shot...
