Well bad news, good news, bad news. The lastest version of game has broken the mod & any patches to date. I did contact mod maker, who did reply. He did say he would try to look it over to see if he could find a fix. Sadly that was late April 2018. If only I “lived” in the code (if I only understood it all), but at last, after looking at it for more than a few minutes it all blurs into one big blob of gibberish!

[Raboy13]

Can you please add support for beta 0.17? ;D

[Devious]

I wish I had the knowledge to update it, hopefully someone who can do so picks it up :)

Got this mod in my modpack, it works fine. Did some changes at all, so I don't remember what exactly is incompatible in the original version by w00zla. I may package it as a standalone mod by time and publish here in this topic.

 

Although I did not plan to do long term support for this mod, so if someone wanna have the fixed code to provide support for future Avorion versions please send me a message.

Hey! That is great you got it working. I saw your (this) post at/about the same day a new patch dropped. Guess my questions to you are ? 1st does it still work after Combat update 2(turrets) ??? Even if you don't plan on doing long term support it would still be awesome if you would post your version of the mod, so that others may enjoy the fruits of your labor?  I Thank you for taking the time to get it working. Sadly for me looking at code is like looking at a hypno Wheel  ???

Yes I will upload it. The only reason I didnt do yet is, that I can't just upload it. I have to extract it from my modpack, remove my modpacks custom modifications from modfiles and then package a new mod wich works for vanilla game. Because I did lot of changes in my modpack and the mod itself this will take some time to get everything working. Also I have to update my other mods before. I hope you can have some fun with new turret editor while waiting for this  ;)

 

Did not test in 0.18 yet, but I expect it to work.

Is your mod pack available somewhere?

[Hammelpilaw]

Is your mod pack available somewhere?

 

No, only available for my server, wich currently do not exist. I hope I can launch it soon, will publish it in Multiplayer section.

EDIT: Bug report -- tried to enable fleet control HUD server-wide using /fleetcontrolconfig enablehud true. This resulted in the following error:

Bug report #2:

 

I could not get this to work at all. After configuring some HUD options and putting my ships in the Groups, I left Sector then returned, because I saw no UI anywhere. Hoped that would give me a UI. However, still no UI and instead the changes I made were all lost. All my ships disappeared from the units list, too.

 

Here's another error log:

Hello everybody,

 

there is a new update for the mod :)

but its mainly for bugfixing and stability since last release.

 

FleetControl v0.5.1

 

Changelog:

• fixed bugs and problems with script changes and some strange client behaviour (thx to Shrooblord for feedback)
  
• added 'clear' action to '/fleetcontrolconfig' command for removing all saved mod values (for troubleshooting purposes)
  

 

DOWNLOAD v0.5.1

[current1y]

I get the message

 

<Server> You are not allowed to execute the command 'fleetcontrol' when I use the command /fleetcontrol in chat. The admin of the dedicated server can enable the mod fine but others in the server cannot.

 

Any ideas?

Yes, fact is that on servers only admins can execute any non-standard command by default.

One of the server admins must give you and other players the exlicit privilege to execute the /fleetcontrol command!

How would said server admin do that exactly? Sorry we all just picked up the game a few weeks ago.

In the folder where the server saves the galaxy data

(i.e. "%APPDATA%\Roaming\Avorion\galaxies\<yourgalaxyname>\" for Windows)

is a file called "admin.xml".

Edit this file and add the new "<command name="fleetcontrol"/>"-line to the "<defaultAuthorizationGroup>"-block.

 

But be aware that multiplayer support for the mod is not 100% done yet, it could cause problems or unwanted behaviour if multiple players have the same ship(s) in their ship-groups!

while trying to work out why i can see alliance ships in the unassigned list . i noticed this message on the server.

is there something i have missed ?

As long as the main functionality of the mod works for you this error should not be too much of an issue (it just makes global server configs like HUD delay ineffective, but should not affect the mod in general, it is also already fixed in the next version which will be released soon).

 

Its intended that alliance ships are visible in the unassigned list and assignable to ship groups as long as the player has the "Fly Ships" privilege for the alliance!

thanks for the quick response.,
