Can you add more units to a mod?

March 9th, 2010 08:31 PM

Hello to all
Well i was just wondering if its possible to add more units to a mod?
The mod in question was z3r0x 3.5 mod. Now i really like this mod but was wondering if its possible to add more units the majority space and a few ground. If so what do i have to do? I would really appreciate the help thanks


(NOTE: THIS WOULD BE DONE FOR MY PERSONAL USE ONLY AND I DO NOT PLAN TO RE DISTRIBUTE THE MODIFIED MOD IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

lets start off with one at a time which one are you having issues with the most.the reason i ask is you have different categories of ships you putting in like fighters usually have a squadron/sometimes a container. the corvettes and up usually use hardpoints and dont need a company/squadron.i dont know if i made sense hehehe.
-make sure they have tactical correct.if they have hardpoints that are destroyable that the harpoints have health also.
-make sure they have a projectile listed
explain one for example

sorry if i am inconsistent as i am new to this. to start i got the hyena bomber in its in the game but it does not engage the enemy or get destroyed. now most of the units that im adding are frigates some fighters and 1 ground unit. the other ship i added was the derriphan frigate put everything in its corresponding folder but it wont show up in the space build bar im looking for any mistakes i know i made lol

lets start off with you hyena bomber if you can copy and paste your hyenas spaceunit code,squadron code,and if you have it the hyenas container code.so that i can see in detail what you got.
