in order to do it i replaced the Part of the code in libconstruct Which assigns AI and used the following:

Code:

pGame = App.Game_GetCurrentGame()                 pShip = (self.GetBuildShip())                 pPlayer = pGame.GetPlayer()                 pEpisode = pGame.GetCurrentEpisode()                 pMission = pEpisode.GetCurrentMission()                 pFriendlies = pMission.GetFriendlyGroup()                 pEnemies = pMission.GetEnemyGroup()                 import Custom.NanoFXv2.NanoFX_Lib                 sRace = Custom.NanoFXv2.NanoFX_Lib.GetSpeciesName(pPlayer)                 if (sRace == "Federation"):                         pFriendlies.AddName(self.GetBuildShip().GetName())                 else:                         pEnemies.AddName(self.GetBuildShip().GetName())                 sClassName = None                 pShipDef = None                 if pShip.GetScript():                         sShipScript = string.split(pShip.GetScript(), ".")[-1]                    if Foundation.shipList.has_key(sShipScript):                         pShipDef = Foundation.shipList[sShipScript]                 if Foundation.shipList.has_key(sClassName):            #print("Works So Far")                         pShipDef = Foundation.shipList[sClassName]                                   if pShipDef.__dict__.has_key("shipID"):                         shipID = pShipDef.shipID                         print("Ship Id Registered")                                   if (shipID == "CargoShip1"):                         AI = App.g_kSystemWrapper.GetRandomNumber(2) + 1                         print ("AI = " + str(AI))                         if (AI == 1):                                 import AI.Fleet.Sol3WarpAI                                 pShip.SetAI(AI.Fleet.Sol3WarpAI.CreateAI(pShip))                                 print("Course Set for Earth")                         elif (AI == 2):                                 import AI.Fleet.Draylax2WarpAI                                 pShip.SetAI(AI.Fleet.Draylax2WarpAI.CreateAI(pShip))                                 print("Course set for Draylax 2")

sfc3fan, like I posted on the official New Frontier forum site, I'd like to sign up to be a system scripter. I posted the details there.

This is looking good, guys, even if I personally find the current focus on the NX era a bit distasteful.

Expect me to start getting a lot more fanboyish when you cross over to TOS and TNG eras. From the scripting technologies point of view, 'tis looking lovely. May I make 3 suggestions? (I have been a real suggestionator lately )

1:
For the clock, make it a date, or year thing. ie in the wolf 359 system script, you could have a line saying

Code:

if(TNF.year>2369) {     wreckagePresent = true; }

granted, that's C++ code, but you get my drift.

and
2:Make the NX era skippable. Trust me, it'll save you a lot of rantings from people like me and Phaser.

3. For the sector map, rather than a grid, simply have a galactic map. In 2d would be easiest. (though I'd love to import Celestia's Galactic coordinates database!), position known systems manually, and then have your random star system ganerator populate much of the remaining space. And remember, Very few systems have planets!.
I shall call you hurtful things (such as "silly person", "plant-lover" or "Plastic Vicar") if there are planets around every star. Yes, that was irrational.

Just an update, on the Demo, which you'll be unhappy to know is effectivly being canceled to allow me to work on something even better

STAR TREK: Armageddon (TIS)

I'll leve you a few weeks to debate what TIS stands for but surficive to say when its done, it will kick ass.

And another one bites the dust... Sorry to hear that but hopefully you will be able to use some of what you have so far on your next project....

The Demo was a subsidy of The new Frontier Project, The demo will still be available in time, just not as a demo but a full independant era.

The NX-Era, Mealstrom era are still in production, With STAR TREK Armageddon (TIS) entering production as soon as the file front servers are full operational and i can get access to my scripts again.

I'll be scripting the "Starship controls, Bridge Sequences and Cutscene Sequences over the next few months.) The bigest delay is getting my hands on some of the other "stuff" i need.

We recently aquired some "New Stuff" which is forcing me to re-think the way new frontier works, All the Scripting has be tried and testing, right now i'm assembling the Federation fleets.

Watch this space the demo you may be suprised.

sounds cool. but what about the barebone structure of the dynamic universe you were creating?
is it still under construction?

Yeah the dynamic Trek universe is still under construction, i've figured out a way to increase the dynamic nature further, plus i've developed what im calling the 'UREGS' or Universal Random Event System. So far i have tested it and it seems to work. At one point i recieved a distress call from a damaged ship, another time starfleet was invaded by the Borg..... Twice in a row...... It's still far from being implimetad but when it is you should just be able to run Quickbattle load A New frontier Era and sit back and well do something, theres never really a dull moment, i'm working on developing another version of UREGS wich works on the bridge so the crew will talk to one another, wind saffi up also in a new little dity i've been toying with is the Captain Signing and reading reports so a crew member may come onto the bridge give the captain a PADD the captain will then recieve a GUI with some text and imaged he can then decide on a course of action and hand the report back. The whole basis of new Frontier is Now to Improve the feel of the game mke it less like, just a game, and improve the atmosphere.
