goober: if you want, go ahead and try to make decals optional?

That's really all that's left.

I'll build tonight or tomorrow so 3.4 will be a Xmas present

make sure USE_OPENGL is defined.  you get screwy errors at run time if it isn't and you try to run it.

Meh, I'm not sure how to do that, and it'll take me longer than I have time for to figure it out.  I still have to finish the change-ai-level and set-cargo sexps by tonight.  Assign it to somebody. It definitely needs to be made optional in this build, I think - otherwise it'll be annoying to play any capship missions...

ok, well, that means we're at bobboau's mercy

or we could comment it out and put it in for 3.5

Do that, then we could have 3.4 for Christmas.

Yes we do!

[SKYNET-011]

You guys should raise the ship TBL limits...

[Solatar]

There's a very good reason why they haven't, I'm just not sure what it is...

[Goober5000]

Breaks multiplayer.

Although I hardly use multiplayer, so I'd be just fine restricting it to just the original FS2 exe.  And ballistic primaries don't work for multiplayer either, by the way.

[SKYNET-011]

What exactly are the limits? Mine crashes at 417 KB.

[SKYNET-011]

...And still at 406.

[SKYNET-011]

ARRGH! 400! STILL NO #@^& LUCK!!!:mad:

[phreak]

you may have ran out of memory -- we have a 1MB max

[Goober5000]

Regardless of the table sizes, you can't have more than 130 ships.  And you can decrease the table size by removing all the extraneous stuff: comments and all that.

[Inquisitor]

Right now it's the 130 ships that can;t be raise b/c of multiplayer.

Goober: I am about to build a test exe, HOW don't ballistics work in multi? Does it crash it?

[Goober5000]

I haven't tested it, so I can only say that multiplayer will have unpredictable behavior at best and may crash the mission at worst.

I didn't add any multiplayer routines, so I know that none of the extra ballistic stuff is passed back and forth - stuff like ammo and whether you run out.  Not to mention all the initialization when you start the mission and set your loadout in the first place.  Best case scenario, the only difference will be that everyone flying will appear to have infinite ammo (just like with normal primaries).  On the other hand, multiplayer might end up choking on something introduced with the conversion.

Just say that ballistic primaries are not supported in multiplayer in this release.

How bout' we make Nav Systems do something??
