| Summary | 0001032: -shp.tbm doesn't support certain commands | ||||
| Description | I've just found that -shp.tbm files do not support certain commands. At least, you cannot add/modify: + $Flags + $Shield Color I attach a conflictive tbm. | ||||
| Additional Information | I've just discovered this because I wanted to make some tries with Lucifer's shiels and surface shields flag. (I want to check if I can erase the mesh-shielded but low poly model within FSPort, using the non-shield but hi-poly model within mv_models). As a first step, I wanted to build test missions (just me and a stupid SD Lucifer) using just 3.6.8. Media VPs and the -shp.tbm file I attach, (not FSPort files yet, except the shield ani that I've extracted to mediavps\data\hud). But parser complains about that commands. I get the error with FS2 and FRED2. | ||||

You have to put the tags in the same order as in an ordinary ships.tbl. This is not a bug, it is by design to keep TBL order standardized and allow for quick & efficient parsing. The proper order is: $Name: SD Lucifer +nocreate $Shields: 800000 $Shield Color: 255 92 92 $Flags: ("capital" "big damage" "surface shields") $Shield_icon: shield-capital02 |

Well, I don't want to reopen it. Just to be sure: + Then, all table entries in tbl and tbm files must keep their explained order within FS Wiki. Am I right? Or is it an issue with ships.tbl and -shp.tbm only? Or is it just an issue with tbm tables but not tbl ones? Depending on your answer, I will add warnings to FS Wiki tables seccion because I think it's a MUST-HAVE info for noob modders like myself. (And I think trying all the possible editing options myself it's a HARD stupid way to learn this, or maybe I'm too lazy ;) ). Thanks, WMCoolmon. edited on: 09-09-06 10:39 |

As a rule, *all* modular tables should go in the same order as the regular tables. The only places you can change the order are very specific places such as ai_profiles. |
