Title: command line request
Post by: Topgun on July 16, 2007, 06:39:48 pm
can I have a -noshowmaxspd command line? I want it to no longer indicate your ship's max speed or the ship's percentage of max speed. it is for 2 very important mods I am working on, thanks.

EDIT: all I need is to get rid of everything that indicates the player's ship's max speed OR that compares that to any other speed.

if there is any other way of doing it, I don't know how. I NEED this, and many people will like this mod. I can't say what it is, but, trust me, it's good :nod:.

EDIT: I just realised something, I also need to be able to set the speed of your ship when the game starts (IE when you start a mission your moving at some-pecentage of your max speed, I can't have that) and when a ship warps out.
and just make the command line -TGP (TopGun Physics)

are you doing a full newtonian mod?

Ship Editor -> Initial Status -> Velocity.

Is this a bug?

If the answer is yes, I think you should mantis it.

no, that is supposed to work on non player ships only.

Then tough ****. :p No coder is likely to bother adding a feature just because you can't be bothered to use a feature which is already there and does the same thing.

If initial velocity doesn't work then it needs to be fixed.

the initial velocity does not work on your ship.

EDIT: nevermind, I got Newtonian to work just fine. I still need that command line though (name it whatever you want).

PS can you have negative damp factors?

EDIT2: you know how in the ship select room it tells you the ship's max speed, I want that to go away via ship flag.

That's definitely a bug, then.

forget about that. I found out I had changed it on the wrong mission. no bug.

This


or the ship's percentage of max speed.

is no longer needed.

Two things:
1. I may do this, along with a couple of other things to facilitate Newtonian mods.
2. Have you checked out the changes Backslash made to Glide in HEAD? The changes make Glide into a Newtonian Physics mode, as far as I can tell. It's worth checking out.
