capship turrets on rhino

Sun Feb 04, 2007 2:19 pm by robocop

I'm working on a capship mod that provides capships as a restart template in FLShell. I do NOT want the ships available for sale on a base.

Everything is working fine except for one thing.

If you take a capship and sell it to buy a regular ship the capship turrets are mounted on the new ship. Imagine a rhino or patriot covered with capship turrets. Not at all what I'm looking for.

What do I need to change in order to prevent capship turrets from being mounted on regular ships?

I tried adding the line hp_gun_type = hpturret to each cap ship gun thinking that that would prevent it from being mounted as there was now a gun type but no class but that didn't do it.

Any other ideas?

Please help.

Thanks,
Robo

projectile_archetype = ku_battleship_turret01_ammo

auto_turret = true

lootable = false

Just add this to all capship turrets and they will not mount on Vanilla Freighters.

hp_gun_type = hp_turret_special_10

This would go

[Gun
nickname = ku_battleship_turret01
ids_name = 263437
ids_info = 264437
DA_archetype = equipment\models\turret\ku_turret01.cmp
material_library = equipment\models\ku_turret.mat
HP_child = HPConnect
hit_pts = 23076
explosion_resistance = 1.000000
debris_type = debris_turret_huge
parent_impulse = 20
child_impulse = 80
volume = 50.000000
mass = 10
hp_gun_type = hp_turret_special_10 <--/////////////////Here////////////
damage_per_fire = 0
power_usage = 0
refire_delay = 0.500000
muzzle_velocity = 1222.199951
toughness = 5.300000
flash_particle_name = ku_capgun_01_flash
flash_radius = 15
light_anim = l_gun01_flash
projectile_archetype = ku_battleship_turret01_ammo
separation_explosion = sever_debris
auto_turret = true
turn_rate = 90
lootable = false

Now if you ever make Capships buyable you well need to go to the shiparch.ini and change all the capship turrets to class 10 also.

I'm betting that ifyou did that you'd be able to mount them on VHFs

There are no class 10 turrets unless you made some.
So just take off all class 10 turrets on all VHF's.
