With one of the recent release builds of Rebellion, support for map version 3, which did not have the forced moveAreaRadius and hyperspaceExitRadius inserts, was cut. I feel that this lack of support takes much away from making maps.
As version 4 does not allow for the various Random objects to have an moveAreaRadius and hyperspaceExitRadius based off the entity of whatever spawns, taking away an additional form of chance or "randomness". For example, if one puts a WeightedRandom in a map, regardless of spawns, such as an Ice planet or a Dead Asteroid, they will have the same movement area. Plus, nor does it allow, for modders, the ability to put in suns of various sizes with different areas of movement.
Due to these, however futile it may be, I request that either map version 4 has some sort of option to let the moveAreaRadius and hyperspaceExitRadius be left blank or allow for a wildcard symbol (aka. the game loads these values from the planet/star's entity file as in the past), or that map version 3 support be re-added.
and another harpo bump to get ALL the features of maps from previous versions working without errors in the current map version OR the ability to load previous version maps without errors as was in the beta, and first release, but was removed in 1.02,1.03 & 1.031
harpo
bump
Bump.
Bump. Just give community source code and a year...
Saw this so low on the front page I decided to bump it again.
and another harpo bump to get the maps FIXED, to either loading mapversion 3 OR all the features that werew working in 3 working in 4
Please make mapversion 3 features fully backwards compatible in Rebellion--particularly the random planets using the planet templates by default.
and another harpo bump as it was at the bottom of my unread replies
Bump!
WHY WILL THE DEVELOPERS NOT REPLY? Bump.
and another one
and aonther harpo dodgem
and yet another harpo dogem (bump)
This is becoming very sad...
yes it is very frustrating, still getting no response from either stardock OR ironclad on this issue.
and YET another dodgem
This is pathetic, it's been up for over a month and isn't even acknowledged.
and yet ANOTHER dodgem bump (these dodgems are going to NEED a lot of panelbeating to remove these bumps).
I'm not even a modder, but I'll sign this just because I'd like to see the dev's do some stuff.
signed/
yet another harpo dodgem attempt to get a developer response.
and another dodgem
dodgem
pity that the devs are still dodging this issue, so we will have to continue the dodgem attack.
and another dodgem joins the attack
100 replies and still no response from the devs. This is sad.
