medals.tbl question
Hi folks,

I just went through medals.tbl and I've got a small question: I am currently counting 17 entries - is it a hard coded limit or could I just go ahead and add a few more and modify the interface mask file accordingly? ;)

The thing is that Saga relies more on badges than on medals, so we've got quite a number to award. Then again, if it is an engine limitation we might just go ahead and cut some of the less important stuff, like campaign badges or fighter qualifications badges.

No errors, no random CTDs, just pure fun and proof of why getting hit with missiles is a bad thing.

Re: medals.tbl question
It breaks pilot files to change it, which is why the same old limit still exists (for now).

 
Re: medals.tbl question
My advice would be to maintain all of them (and their associated awarding criteria), but only include the important ones in the game for now.
STRONGTEA. Why can't the x86 be sane?

Well, it is not a big deal - I removed a few less important badges (fighter qualifications ribbons), so now we have exactly 15 medals plus 3 aces badges to award. ;)
