    • Help with Plug


      I am creating a plugin for EVO and I dont know how to have some things avaliable in some places and other things not avaliable in other places if they have a lower tech level than the other. I am using EV-Edit.
      Another problem I have is that when I enter a system, there is the average number of ships in the system, and they are all the same, and they all enter and leave at the same time. What do I do here? 😕

      ------------------

    • What you need to do here, besides reading the manual, is to enter a high number into the tech level for the outfit. then in the planet, set that number as one of the special tech levels. to make different ships in the system, go to the system resource and change the dude types (different sets of ships) to the ones you want. wa-la your fixed.

      Why not? EV edit is alot easier to use than resedit, and I havent experinced any problems with it. Besides, editing systems is very hard to do is Resedit, and what I'm doing requires lot and lots of systems.

    • Look, EVedit will cause serious bugs in your plug if you use it
      and if you don't want to do pure resedit, use missioncontrol, shipwrite, evo developer's map and others. also using resedit isn't that hard if you have the EVO bible

      You apparently haven't used it long enough. skyblade, it's eaten two of my plugs in two days before, about a month ago. Thank goodness I make backups pretty often. Like everyone's been saying, using the stuff in the developers' folder--the bible and the plug template--in combination with ResEdit and maybe ShipWrite, Mission Control, EV Developer's Map, and/or EV/EVO Formula Calc works a whole lot better than EV-Edit.

      There's other things to use as mentioned above.
