I've got some questions.. I'm creating a space map, Coruscant, where i want the infantry to be able to get out of the hangar, without starfighters... How would i get the shields "offline"? Also, in the unit odf, which lines do you have to change for eternal everlasting jetpack? Set Jetdrain to 0 right? Thanks in advance

Thats easy-first in ze load your map,load the cs/gcw ships layer and then remove the shield on the ship

Is there also a way to do it in a .lua or whatever, because i can't open ZE... Vista! I thought there would be some sort of script for it maybe..

I just looked in the sheild odf, and there's no collision line for soldiers, but I did find a line for vehicle collision that was set to "CLEAR". I'm starting to wonder about whether you could do the same for the soldier collision.

What line would that be, and where would i put it? I've got no lua experience or whatsoever

Code: Select all

SoldierCollision = "CLEAR"
goes in the shield odf under Properties

When you want conquest in space = ask Pinguin/Aman (remember: Space: Angruya)

Where is still shield odf? And i don't need ZE for it right?! Thanks for all help guys...

Edit: I got it working.. so how about the Jetrooper? How can i give him unlimited fuel? (also for jump)

For anyone else who wants to do it through the Lua its:

Code: Select all

SetClassProperty("all_cap_rebelcruiser_shield", "SoldierCollision", "CLEAR")
For the different shields, use one of:
all_cap_rebelcruiser_shield
cis_fedcruiser_shield_blue
rep_assultship_shield_red
imp_cap_stardestroyer_shield

A quick hack for unlimited flying is to change the ODF parameter JetFuelCost to 0.0

Great, thanks a lot! For a Jedi, it would be Jetdrain = 0 right?!

Also, how would you make your Trooper fly faster? And, how do i make the AI go outside the hangar with their jets? Or do i need ZeroEditor for that?

EDIT
Sorry for the double post, but on my old computer ZE works... I've got quite a dilemma. I want:

-Units to move from the cp out of the hangar into space. This should be done with their jetpacks turned on!


I know i have to make a path, i read trough the docs, but don't understand much of it... I created a path, but can't get it in height, and how should i name it?! Thanks in advance
