the ship files DO NOT go in the save folder. only ships you own are copied there. if you DO put them there, u will need to edit your player_data.txt file to include that ship and it's location.
1) The picture of my ship does not display either at the station nor in the Ship Editor Mod list.
2) The completed model DOES load in the Ship Editor correctly. However when selecting the Ship Hangar option containing my ship's name (no picture displayed.), I observed many parts of the ship I constructed missing though in the Ship Editor it is fine.
3) When selecting my ship from the station File Hangar listing, no Purchase Button displayed below.
Perhaps my ship data is wrong in some way. In any event, I hope I am not taking too much of your time. I look forward to your response at a time of your convenience.
Respectfully,
Ken
Can you post the contents of your ship_data.txt file here? I wonder if the ship is too large to display all the parts in game. I had this happen when I made a huge Borg Cube ship, it looked fine in the editor but in game there were large holes in it where pieces were missing. I assume there may be a point where the rendering engine breaks down when too many parts are used.
I am uncertain to whether there is a static or constant variable in use to determine the size boundary for created ships that needs tweaking. However, if the code to the Ship Editor Mod is examined which allows for considerable constructions of ships, then that same construct allowing for large ships in the editor could be reviewed for fostering the insertion of player's creations into the game. Just a thought.
Best Regards,
Ken

look at the MODSLOT id's, u need to ID them in sequence... they are all 2, and need to be 1,2,3,4,5... and so on.
the image is created via the save PNG in the ship editor. this button will create the image for the ship.
I will look much harder at my file, hopefully not mess it up more. My only trouble now is that even when I take it's picture in the ship editor. It is not displayed in the Ship Editor (Load Ship display), nor in the Shipyard list on the station menu, though I can see it's file in the ship directory. As well, no purchase button displays.
I appreciate everyone's input. This is a nice community of players and Devs.
Best Regards,
Ken
that should fix ur ship. to place this ship into your save game, open your save folder / PILOT / stations / sector_0_station_0.txt and add this line to the HANGAR section
SHIP;8;1.01;ship_data_(megaship_1).txt
make sure your filenames are correct. if the ship text filename does not match the internal filename in the ship file, it will not work. the image filename is identical to the ship filename, just the PNG extension instead of TXT
AWESOME! My bad, it was a misspelling, now I need to slow it down. 12,000 mps is a bit much.
This is humbling, THANK YOU for everything! Since I enjoy modeling with Zbrush I would freely and gladly create any content you would like. You can just apply your texture 'maps as you like.
I'm a retired Army soldier and always look for new projects in my copious free time. Just let me know what format you would like the objects in.
One last question, how can I alter the color of the Thruster streaming out from the engines? I'll see if I can figure this one out. Maybe someday different powered thrusters could have different colors eh?
Thank you again for your time.
Ken
The first 3 numbers are the RGB values, I think the 4th is something like illumination.
https://www.rapidtables.com/web/color/RGB_Color.html
This will help with the colors. We had a modder on the Discord a while back playing with all sorts of engine colors.
For some reason a few of the mod slots were flipped the wrong way around and/or were too far off the surface of the ship, so maybe tweak those a bit. The reason it is so fast could be that the mass is only 40, it might need to be closer to 400.
I appreciate your feedback. My idea with two of the Mod Slots facing backwards was to cover my blind area but now I remembered I can define the area of coverage for a mod in the game.
I'll be playing around with the engine color and drop the mass of the ship to even 30. That should be more reasonable. Thank you for viewing my ship guys. I am hoping in the future I might submit some model components I can create in Zbrush. Could be interesting.
Such an awesome game.
Ken
Yeah, I fixed that last night. Pretty simple stuff. Edit the ship any way you please and I'll post the latest one I build for any one to do what they please with. I'm a nuub at this but having too much fun. I wonder, how can symmetry be invoked in the Ship Editor? So far I've been eye balling it.
I wish we could import .dxf or .obj files from our own applications to the Ship Editor, it would facilitate unique creations. Perhaps some day.
God Bless,
Ken
