To regenerate shields/armor, add:
cargo = ge_s_battery_01, 10
cargo = ge_s_repair_01, 10
to the NPC's ship loadout in the Data\Ships\Loadouts.ini file.
(The "10" is the quantity you want them to have.)
(There are several hundred loadouts, so it's time-consuming.)

Watch your 6!

Warzog - erm, I don't have an installation - but I thought you needed to change an entry in pilots population ini file, to enable them all to use it......as they have repair never or something, instead of repair both?

Will install game again tomorrow (had to reformat - damned comp problems!)

chips is right, unmodified pilots would not use the healers .. (except some of the storyline maybe)

Well, SOME(how do i make bold text?) of them do use the nanobots, but i havent seen a single shield regenerate or heal and it is also pretty damn hard to determine whether they have infinite thruster or not

oh chips, i skipped ultra_64's battleship encounters, too unrealistically many of them, so i used yours(the nephilim guy's), only, i had to use your script too to make it work, (i think, whatever, selecting my starting ship and base is nice anyway )

Take a Pick!

well, first
to have regenerating npc shields goto Data\Equipment\st_equip.ini
look for every "npc_shieldxxx", regeneration_rate = 1 <-- change that

second

---

it is also pretty damn hard to determine whether they have infinite thruster or not

---

goto Data\Ships\loadouts.ini and look for "equip = infinite_power", change that if you want ..

Sorry...
I keep forgetting you folks still use NPC Shields.
Switch the loadouts to standard shields, and add the shieldbatts and nanobots, and it works!


Watch your 6!

hey no problem warzog, but what makes you think i use npc_shields

tho BmB23 may use them ..

Do not forget to change the AIö. All normal AI pilots us ethe repair ID "Repair_never". Make a new one that tells them to repair, make some for different difficulties etc. and put those into the pilots. This is all in pilots_polulation.ini, btw.

ARGH!! im being drowned in replies!! (dosnt matter, keep em comin')
