SH5 Mod order install advice

I have made some of my own scripts (copying shamelessly from, and with thanks to, Trevally) and found that the least syntax error in a script (mine, all mine!) will cause the automation page to have "funnies" when displaying available scripts. Sometimes some will show, other times not. Sometime I click on a category and it is "empty". Then I immediately click again, and the sub-categories appear. Unpredictable errors. Once you fix the syntax problem or simply uninstall the out-of-date packages, the problems go away. But errors in any script can cause the whole automation page to malfunction in non-fatal ways. Might be what you are seeing.

Feel free to copy and personalise. Autoscript is a great tool within TDWs UI mod and users should feel free to tweek any of mine they like

It certainly is! I cranked out over a dozen yesterday AM. Some just variations on a theme (with waypoints vs real nav, etc.) but still.... I'd urge anyone with a whit of simple programming experience - like wriing macros for Excel - or just computer self-confidence to try it.

But I only bothered because I looked inside yours and saw how you had done things. Thanks again. Your Harbour (sic ) Pilot scripts are a boon to everyone who plays SH5, particularly with Real Nav. The Kiel harbor graphics are very nice, but how many times do I want to slog through them?

Yes.. Trevally that's the scripts window that appears empty of scripts, will give that Dbgview program and try and see whats going on. Also Ive only ever used the scripts that I posted above.

Many thanks all
