May I change things in your AWESOME mod for my singleplayer game?

[MotS]

Hello,

I played your mod for a few days now and it's the best Freelancer mod ever! Still Freelancer, but bigger :D

Well, there's one thing that bothers me, it's the NPCs hull/shield regeneration. I'm not very far into the game yet, but 10 minutes to kill a single "Corsairs - Legionair" (or something like that) is just frustrating :(

Of corse I don't ask you to do it, because i guess one had to change it for one ship at a time wich seems like a lot of work considering the huge amount of ships! I'd like to do it myself but I thought I'd ask you guys first :). The other question is: How can I change that? I really am a noob at Freelancer modding ;)

My Documents > My Games > Freelancer

Poke around in the Singleplayer folder for a perfoptions.ini

Open said file, locate the line that says "DIFF_SCALE = 1.00" or summat.

Change it to whatever lower number you like. (e.g. 0.50 will make you take half damage.)

That or get IFCE and give yourself admin guns.

Just go play the game and have fun dammit.

all in all the conclusion is that disco doesn't need antagonist factions, it doesn't need phantoms, it doesn't need nomads, it doesn't need coalition and it doesn't need many other things, no AIs, the game is hijacked by morons to confuse the game with their dickwaving generic competition games mixed up with troll-of-the-day.

thank you, but wouldn't it still take just as long as before to kill soneone?

a player, yes. At this point, its just a question of skill.
a NPC, it becomes easier.

The only problem I have with NPCs is the fact that they can just use 1 Shield bot...

And save themselves from being missiled in the... keister.

If you modify any game files and then log onto the server without restoring things to the mod-as-downloaded you are in danger of finding yourself banned for cheating.
For your own singleplayer, I suppose you can do whatever you like.

Good. It still is and will stay singleplayer ;D

If I were you, I'd copy and rename the folder in FLMM mods folder, then do the edits in the copied folder, that way you leave the mod in it's original form on one copy. When you want to play on the server, you can activate the unedited copy and avoid getting banned for cheating.

If this is just for singleplayer. Go to the data\ships\loadouts.ini. Open it with Notepad. Go to Edit>Find and search for...

cargo = ge_s_repair_01

These are the nanobots. You can remove or add accordingly to set the nanobot amount on the ships.

Once you are happy with that, go to Edit>Find and search for...

cargo = ge_s_battery_01

These are the shield batteries. You can add or remove accordingly to set how many shield bats you want the npc to have.

That is one way to do it. If you dont feel like changing all of the loadouts and want to get rid of npc regeneration totally. Go to the data\missions\pilots_population.ini. Open it up in notepad and change all of the entries under the [RepairBlock] entries to 0.

Here is an example...

[RepairBlock]
nickname = repair_fighter_never
use_shield_repair_pre_delay = 0
use_shield_repair_post_delay = 0
use_shield_repair_at_damage_percent = 0
use_hull_repair_pre_delay = 0
use_hull_repair_post_delay = 0
use_hull_repair_at_damage_percent = 0

Whatever you do, do NOT change the nickname. There will be multiple [RepairBlock] entries. You will have to change all of them accordingly.

I hope this helps. And be advised, this is for SINGLE PLAYER ONLY.
