I know there are hidden sexps, like the grant-medal, and grant-promotion sexp, but are those it? I'm looking for a sexp that will let the player earn points for taging another fighter with a "paintball" gun. I then want the player to be able to view their score, and if possible, their wingmen and opponent's score in the debriefing. Is this possible?

grant-medal
allow-ship
allow-weapon
I think thats its. Try doing a search.
-
Is there a way to make supercaps dock? It seems to be a restricted combination, but there should not be any real conflict, should there?

No, grant-promotion exists. It promotes the player to the next level. Yipee! I found another sexp!
Or not....:nervous:
EDIT: The second two you said aren't hidden. You can select them. I mean by hidden ones that you must type them in.
EDIT: That's a little OT, but I might as well help. Do supercaps even have dockpoints?
-
Don`t forget End-Campaign.
Sure it's useless unless your campaign also ends with alpha 1 fleeing Capella but it is a hidden SEXP :)
-
Check the Source code.

End-campaign isn't hidden. it is under Change-

Howzat?
-
Perfect, thanx aldo. Looks like Grant-medal and grant-promotion are the only two ones that don't appear in FRED2.
-
send-message-list, or have I been typing it in all this time for no reason?
-
You've been typing it in all this time for no reason:D
it also, is under Change»

Well, I don't know about the Colossus, but the Sathanas has them, as does my Archangel. As far as I can figure, telling a supercap to dock (not something to dock with a supercap, that works) is prohibited in FRED. It just isn't an option. The same goes for "Capital" (Destroyer) ships as well.
EDIT: and I guess that is sensible, except that I want my Archangel to dock with it's drydock.

What do you know :) I`ve never noticed it there. I guess it's so useless I never paid it any attention :)
-
I was looking real hard for sexps, and found some many I hadn't noticed it wasn't funny.
-
Here are the ones I remember:
grant-medal
grant-promotion
allow-ship
allow-weapon
tech-add-ships
tech-add-weapons
As to your original objective, this can probably be accomplished with some clever work with the existing sexps. Make your weapon a tag-like thing with a very short tag time, use a chained has-been-tagged-delay that fires when the ship is tagged, and have that event add on score every time.

Allow-ship and Allow-weapon aren`t hidden. They are on the change menu. It's one thing to miss them off cause you don`t notice them in FRED but it's a whole other thing to miss that Hades has already said that it isn`t hidden on this thread :D
-
The weapon is already a TAG weapon, although it is primary. I could keep score, but how to make the player able to view it?
-
Can't you input ur own integer variables in fred? Use a simple:
i=0
if tagged, i=i+1

lol :p I should really the thread before posting...

I think the singleplayer stats screen does not show the mission score for some reason, but you might be able to do it in the mission itself by playing around with the training commands. Maybe you can display a message with the score every time the score reaches a certain value...
-
Did the SCP ever implement the end-mission SEXP? I'm too lazy to check... :nervous:
-
Nope, no end-mission sexp. This would help when the fifteen minute game is over. Anybody think fifteen minutes is a bad amount of time? It isn't too long, but it is short enough that you can hop in and finish a game while waiting for something.
-
It's a good amount of time. But I especially want the end-mission sexp for the T-V war and UW campaigns. Remember that fighters didn't even have intrasystem drives until past the midpoint of the T-V war (at least). They were ferried everywhere by carriers.
This means that without an end-mission SEXP we'll have to do some crazy SEXP fiddling in every mission in order to get ships to exit into the fighterbay. :(
-
Also don't forget, in the Unificatin War, the Faustus was a high end military cruiser, used for research, AND combat. They carried two fighters.
-
What does that have to do with this thread?
But while we're on the topic, yes, I am thinking of the Faustus in the same way. :nod: In fact, it figures significantly in my storyline of the UW (which is progressing nicely - still not done, but much headway has been made :)). It's a high-end cruiser, very expensive, and only used by the UNE and it's colonies, because that's the only faction which can afford them.
Except the Faustus is not a military cruiser. The FS tech DB says that it is a civilian design, and as such, it should be devoted to research only, not combat.
-
Wellm I guess tha GTFg Atropis will be our main combat ship.
-
Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
Clarify: does the Atropis or the Sovereign come first? I assume that one is used during the UW, and the other is an upgrade that is rolled out just in time for the TVW.
-
Atropis is in the UW, Sovereign is like the Leviathan in fs1, powerful, great, but not many in service until later in the war.
