Hi all, busy with this Nav mod. I've done it for SH3, and thought that I might as well finish it for SH4, before releasing. SH4 is proving to be a bit more difficult (although I haven't spent much time on it)

What I trying to establish, is whether the command names in the 'command.cfg' file are hard coded into the game or whether one can create them via editing a few files.

I'm trying to implement the Nav mod in the 'Bridge' location.. I've managed to insert the checkboxes..

but when playing with the command.cfg and ordersBar.cfg files. I get these error messages..

from command file - just testing with keystrokes (will change it)
;====================================
; Sextant Modification.
; Keystroke - CTL+Enter
;====================================
[Cmd313]
;Name=Fire_torpedo
Name=Toggle_Activate_Sextant
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x0D,C,"Enter"
;====================================

and from OrdersBar file.. Variable names are created here.
;=========================================
; Delete this lot to get back to originals
;=========================================
Button7Type=Checkbox
Button7CommandWhenClicked=Toggle_Activate_Sextant
Button7CommandToCheckIfIsChecked=Is_Sextant_Active
Button7IconRowColumn=4,10
Button7Tooltip=5649
;=========================================

I'm trying to base this on the same idea as the Clock/Chrono, but cannot find the
Chrono variables (Toggle_Activate_Chrono, etc..) anywhere.

I have not edited the 'menu_1024_768.ini' file yet, and also thought that the variables might be inherent in these page files / menu types, mentioned inside ??

Any help would be great - thanks
