The "Neutral Ships in Convoy's" Solution.
 

xxxxx

Or you could be like me-sink the neutral ships and not give one da** about renown :lol:

Or edit the basic.cfg so neutral ships give 0 reknown

Guys, it's has nothing to do with renown.

Neutral ships have a bug where if you shoot at them, their own friends will finish them off. As far as I understand it, Cdre Gibs suggestion should fix that problem.

:( Unless everyone takes up this then we wont be able to have this and our favorite camp mod together

Sounds like he's talking about renown to me :-?

Either way, neutral ships have a few bugs associated with them; one being the renown, and the other being the stupid AI shooting at teammates.

I made that..... if they are in the convoy shiping goods to the enemy...... they are enemy.

Sink them all !! :rotfl:

I've seen it where if a neutral ship aims at you and hits an allied ship, all the allied ships turn against it, but never this. :-?

Ok, all for it. But why not name the countries something like Norway in Convoy rater than Convoy1, etc. :hmm:

Pardon me for asking, but this is a BIG BIG BIG thing you are suggesting, isn't it?

Doesn't sound that hard to implement me.

For every current "Nation" another nation "Nation_Convoy" is needed.

All "Nation_Convoy" should be hostile, even as "Nation" is neutral. Axis of course not.

Wouldn't be the easiest solution be a tool that automatically adds those nations, instead of manually including it in a mod package?

Need new flags, new nations, new scripts... etc etc

This could also be done programmatically. Basically needs to replace all occurences of "American" for "American_Convoy" (if in Convoy). Ctrl-F / Ctrl-H might do already.

It can be done programmatically, but it also has to be done selectively... Meaning not all of the ships have to be changed.

Meaning someone has to sit there, picking and choosing which ships have to be changed. For thousands of entries, for dozens of nations.

:doh: :doh: :doh:

Who? me? :hmm:

:D :know:

Hi Marhkimov,

It is pretty easy for a programmer to solve. I am only saying this because I have basically done it. When I am done with parsing the .mis file, I only work with convenient classes like Merchant, Convoy, Taskgroup, etc, which then have their proper Units Collection.

So changing some lines to get the find/replace done is simple.

Hand editing it's a big deal.

Offering a tool that does it for everyone is an even bigger deal :)

Well, I hope all of you programmers figure this out... :yep:

GlobalExplorer... Too bad you weren't part of the SH3 Dev team... Too bad...

What are you smoking? :) :|\

If someone wants to replace things from the .mis files selectively, he can contact me. All credit cards accepted.

It's a great idea... Only if it weren't so hard to impliment...
