the only thing i can think of that werks on a specific target's death is experience gain. See if you can reword the experience gain string to do some ability.

or you can do like was suggested to me, when the ship reaches a certain percentage of damage it will autocast a DOT buff on itself and do enough damage to explode, then have an ondeath trigger to spread the resources.

What if you used the pirate ability "steal income" and make it only useable right before the enemy dies.

Ok, I have made this ability

Here is what I did.

First, the ability has "applybufftotargetsinrange"

The targets being the ships you want to salvage

The buff "AppliesBufftotarget" "OnOwnerDeath"

The Target being an allied vessal, with a range slightly larger than the original ability

That last buff than has the "Gainreasources" line "like from BuffDrainPlanet(something)

I've done this, it is quite succsefull.

Hope you understand my chiken scratch, if not, Message me, and I'll give you my actual entity files.

you managed to get a mobile shipyard working?

I have a thread with links to a lot of the new modding ideas/fixes coming out, look near the bottom of the OP.

There is the link to the Teal's post where he got it to work.

And Yes Tkins is exactly 100% right!!! All you change is the name of the ship spawned and bingo!!! You got yourself a ship factory! Turn the ability cost into resources, add it to any ship!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!

It should work exactly the same, the coding is just reversed.

Justin and I have been able to come up with some pretty unique ways of solving some modding ideas just by reversing them or taking different angles.

(OK to be honest usually Annatar just does it for us, but we've done our fair share of solving them with our imagination hahaha)

What do you mean ANNATAR!!!!! my stuff is 100% ME ONLY!! Like in all my questions, I ask Annatar for possible way around or what not..but only after I spend 20+ hours on a single ability and cant seem to get it to work!

He doesnt do NOTHING for me...he very kindly gives guidelines! I DO THE REST

Just to clarify

LOL Justin S.
