Re: Space over ????
from the XXX_cmn lua:
the .sky files are stored in the world\XXX\sky\ folder
Code: Select all
ReadDataFile("dc:HAL\\spa_sky.lvl", "end")- Eggman

Re: Space over ????
I believe the "Getting Started - Space notes" doc explains how to change the sky.

Re: Space over ????
Space map skies are loaded through the .lua, from a separate .lvl file (spa_sky). By default, your space map loads all the stock skies into that level, so you can just look in your cmn .lua and find the line:
As you can see, by default it loads the "end" (Endor) sky (or in your case I suppose it loads the "tat" sky, I guess that's the default for CW space maps). To load a different one, put the three letter mapname of the sky file you want in there. (See your sky folder for the three letter names if you really need to, generally they correspond to the standard three letter map abbreviations).
Code: Select all
ReadDataFile("SPA\\spa_sky.lvl", end)
