Look in the current Raze Planet buff file, and find the entry that has the "doDamageToPlanet". It should look something like this.... Keep in mind I am doing this from memory so it may not all be correct, but should put you in the right direction.

Probably the best you will be able to do "campaign wise" is to setup mission specific maps (scenarios) where the AI starts in a certain place with an empire already established (or however you want to set it up). Like Sparda said, there really isn't code for triggers or scripting.... So (to my knowlege) you are essentially limited to setting up a map, setting up the starting positions, and modifying the galaxy scenario file to the point where the enemy (presuming its AI) will star

[quote who="Lavo_2" reply="3" id="3366499"] To have a mod with races in their own stackable mod, you can quite easily put all their entity (player file included), mesh, texture, and particle files in their own mod. While this will yield plenty of "failed to find data file" errors, it will not result in a minidump and the game will load just fine; this is how SoGE is set up for reference. I have not tried including Window/UI elements in the stackable mods, I've left them all in the c

Mod Stacking and the Entity Manifest in Sins Modding Sins Forums

Hello all, Just had a quick question about mod stacking. My intent is to have races in separate mods with a core mod that will always be active. My idea was to have the entity (and other manifest files, string files) all in the core mod, that way each mod has all its files referenced automatically. This method works great when all the mods are loaded, but if one of the race mods is NOT loaded, it gives a bunch of "failed to find data file" errors (for the refere

Just heard back from Dan, he is looking into the server issue. It should be back up and running soon (ill post up when it is). Progress continues on the Rebellion conversion, please keep in mind that the only race that was "released" was the TCA. There are about 4 others that are essentially done, but not released. Once all the races are finished, an alpha of the entire mod will be released. The alpha will have all the "core" 7DS mod

Okay so I packaged up the latest rendition of the TCA beta and sent it over to Dan to upload to the server. It will be available for download once he gets around to uploading it, probably in the next couple of days. One of the more important fixes included is the Nova cannon. It shouldn't break the game any longer. Additionally, some abilities were fixed, the Athena may have been bugged, it should be fixed now. However; I probably broke the TEC
