Yeh sorry i only put that for short thats all,how about some sort of mod that allows you to "receive" distress signals from random ships rather then just send them perhaps this may add some kind of "duty" feeling to the game to make it feel less one track...just an idea lads

excellent lol im really looking foward to this

also what if you could get your hands on a shuttle cockpit as a bridge for when inside shuttles,to my knowledge this has not been done yet and makes sense for it to be done and perhaps more options under the science menu (ie) scanning for life signs on planets and deralicts and also an animation that alows crew bots on bridge to fly across it when the ship is hit ,and also to run rather then calmly walk when ship under attack

MyBrotherKern · **Posted**: 02-16-2006 06:39 PM

also would an ambush scenario be possible were enemy crew beam onto the bridge? then using the ships phaser animation perhaps you could adapt it so it can be made to look as if your firing it at the enemy crew

btw i have no scripting modding capabilitys im all talk lol

ive been trying to reverse the distress signal script to receive signals from other ships(as this would be so great) but have been stymied ,any1 have any ideas on this

Dero · **Posted**: 02-21-2006 08:06 PM

How is this meant to work? From damaged ships within the system or from another system?

Treleth · **Posted**: 02-21-2006 09:06 PM

well technically you can't just "reverse" the script, you would have to write a whole new one.

MyBrotherKern · **Posted**: 02-21-2006 10:06 PM

yeh i know i would have to write a whole newen i ment reverse as in you go to help others but its getting confusing would be cool though right?

also is there any shuttle cockpits out?

blaXXer · **Posted**: 02-21-2006 10:13 PM

not.yet. keep this on-topic please.

Treleth · **Posted**: 02-22-2006 01:24 AM

agreed, MyBortehrKern, if you ahve suggestions feel free to post them over at the STNF forums Smile

, as I believe this should be kept for updates

sfc3fan · **Posted**: 02-24-2006 09:29 PM

Not really an Update more over a concern has anyone noticed that NF HQ is down?

:--- Never mind

Dero · **Posted**: 02-24-2006 09:48 PM

Ehm down?
The first one or the current one?

sfc3fan · **Posted**: 02-25-2006 03:39 AM

Dosnt matter now dero i thought the Current One Was Down but its just my laptop acting up

sfc3fan · **Posted**: 02-26-2006 02:45 AM

Something that might interest people New Frontier Has something very cool in the works.

Treleth · **Posted**: 02-26-2006 05:39 AM

which cool "thing is it", is it "the one" or is it soemthing I don't know about yet?

sfc3fan · **Posted**: 03-09-2006 01:38 AM

I said i would keep this thread for updates and so here we go another New Frontier Update.

1. Missions continue to come allong smoothly Dero our Chief Missions Scripter has been working really hard on them and they sound good.

2. Ships: The Shake up with loosing the Permissions for the Entire vulcan Ships has been reversed apparantly we now do have permission to use them, We should be releasing the NX-Era Vulcan Ship pack in a few weeks.

3. Systems Next to Missions the New systems in new frontier are slowly coming allong most likely because of the large numbers of them. Once we get the systems working everything else should fall into place.

4WIP: Construction and AI, Constructing ships is once again Proving to be a problem the Current Code by defiant currently cant do the things that we need it to do also it requires that KOBMaru be installed, Dont get me wrong i like Kobamaru, however it dosnt seem like a good idea for people to download a large new Frontier File and A Large KM file simply for the construction features.

5WIP: Missions Loading. I have a code to load missions into Quickbattle. This code has been tested with The Mealstrom Missions However the problems are still running deep, The Ship isn't appearing in cutscenes some things are being skipped or missed out however the code does work just not very well ATM.

Well that about does it for NF Updates for now.

blaXXer · **Posted**: 03-09-2006 02:01 AM

well, rob, sounds great noenetheles. can hardly wait to immerse myself in the new world you and your team are creating.

sfc3fan · **Posted**: 03-10-2006 01:18 AM

An important Update, Starship Construction a core feature of the New Frontier Dynamic Universe is finally functioning the way i want it to, After several weeks i've managed to extract the Construction Mod Defiant Made (Big Thanks there) from Kobayashimaru, not only that the code will now assign a specific AI to a certain Group Of Ships, So For example

All Constructions Ships with the ID: CargoShip1, Will randomly be assigned a Trade Route AI, Earth - Vulcan, Earth - Andoria, Earth - Draylax.

Also once i get the local systems, and core Races home systems working, I'll modify the code further to include an economy based on population, Resorces and Systems.

Additionally i think i've cracked the code to assign New Systems to a hardpoint of a ship such as Transporters, Replicators, Life Support, and Crew Limit, So expect the Transporters, Life Support and Crew Levels to make an apearance, I may be able to find away to Kill the Bridge crew.

So the next month or so should really see some progress made.
