seeker torpedo problems

[Flowrellik]

IDk how or even why but the seeker torpedo does not work for my BC. I use QBautostart 0.9 and I have BCS Beginning installed.
Everything else works fine up until I tried firing the torp on a cloaked vessel and the torpedo does not lock on.
I'm just not sure what I'm missing here. Even doing intensive scans does not even work properly.

[KrrKs]

Can you post a Console report of directly after firing a Seeking Torpedo?

If that is the GMunoz 1.0 version of the seeker torpedo, it is still full of log statements, so it should be relatively easy to find where something went wrong.

[Flowrellik]

Here is the full console list of what's going on. I'm the Constitution class from the Refit Connie pack (Enterprise-A) and my enemy is Wicked Zombie's Emperor Class (VoDleH)

Spoiler: show

[KrrKs]

Do you have a "Firepoint" file present in both scripts/ships and the hardpoint folder?

[Flowrellik]

I don't think I do.
EDIT: Added one from KM. now I have this error.

This is what I get for trying to make my own BC from scratch. I really do not want to use anything from KM because of the override from DS9FX and it's a pain in the ass trying to keep debris active, let alone ships still being explosive.

Change

Code: [Select]

"Species": Multiplayer.SpeciesToShip.FIREPOINT

To

Code: [Select]

"Species": Multiplayer.SpeciesToShip.PROBE

You can't just take things from KM in general especially when there are multiplayer declarations in scripts.

This is what I get for trying to make my own BC from scratch. I really do not want to use anything from KM because of the override from DS9FX and it's a pain in the ass trying to keep debris active, let alone ships still being explosive.

What kind of override are you referring to?

[KrrKs]

Wouldn't that still point to an non-existent nif file though?

I was going to suggest to copy the 'Distortion' ship file that came with BCS, rename that to 'Firepoint' and also change the name in line 7 accordingly.

I really thought that the firepoint files came with BCS, but since that is not so, there seems to something else going on w.r.t. intensive scan.

Unless Defiant moved nifs in KM or Flowrellik doesn't have the model it is pointing to it is going to crash the game.

It's not ours. Look for Blind Fire mod it's from there I believe.

[Flowrellik]

I believe the override from DS9 FX when trying it out in the past was with ships exploding after death, but the ship does not break apart, and that the debris disappears overtime. Now I'm not sure if this is more to do with NanoFX since I haven't down python coding in AGES.
Changing Firepoint to Probe worked. Tested it on a BOP without fail! Thanks Mario!
blind fire mod? I don't know if nexus has it. I remember seeing it in the past but I don't believe I have that in my files anymore thanks to a hard drive fail.

[Mario]

I suppose to what you're referring to is called memory cleaner and it can be toggled off via UMM so DS9FX will not perform such actions. Ever since the inception of the component you had the option to toggle on or off this option and DS9FX would not delete hulks and wrecks.
