    • My ship doesn't show up!


      I’m trying to make a new ship for Nova, but there something wrong;

      I have converted my sprite file to rlë8, and everything seems to be ok. I chose to use rlë8 instead of rlëD that’s what you’re supposed to do, isn’t it you don’t have to use both of them, do you?
      Well, anyway, when I buy the ship I’ve made (“Slave 1”, from Star Wars) and leave the planet, I can’t see any ship at all, where is my ship? I tried to press the arrow buttons to check if I’m actually flying an “invisible ship” but I’m not.

      I changed some ID’s, and I can now see my ship, but I can’t fly it it behaves exactly as a disabled ship, and who the hell wants to buy a disabled ship, eh?

      Does it have anything to do with ID’s?
      I’ve downloaded some tutorial stuff, including a tutorial on how to make a ship it’s called “Tutorials in S”.
      So, just to check it out, I tried to drop the example plugin on how to make a ship into the “Nova Plugins” folder, but it doesn’t work either, there’s no ship at all!
      Is there something wrong with the tutorial file or is it something wrong with Nova (nooooo!)?

      Please help me out, I’m getting really mad here, I’ve had so extreeeeemely many problems related to plugin-designing lately :frown:

    • No, you do need both

      Rlë8 is for when you're running in 8-bit color, rlëD is for 16-bit. Sounds like you're running in 16-bit, and therefore it has no sprite.
