Title: 2D overlay: 2D hardpoint positions won't budge.
Post by: IDFS NX-Erin on July 01, 2011, 06:15:23 PM

Hi....again lol. I am using the MPE to rehardpoint the Enterprise-J that is seen on Legacy to be more accurate to the Legacy J. I have a problem with the 2D tactical overlay in which the hardpoint I want to move is "stuck" where it is. I even changed the X value to 10000 and nothing happened. Is this a scripting thing that has to do with the ship? This is an existing hardpoint just to clarify. Help appreciated.

P.S. If I am posting too much I will be more than happy to slow down, just say the word.

No, sometimes MPE, has a problem, and yep I guess you can call it a script error. You might have to recreate the property , you are making.

Use The Tactical Display Icon Editor available at BCFiles.  Way easier.

Also the 2d overlay is a Pixel Position on the Ships Icon (at least as far as I remember).
So its range is limited from 0 to 128 or 127 (I think that was the standart Icon Resolution).
Values larger than that won't do anything usefull.

Thank you, that fixed it. By the way I love your Enterprise-F and G, they make both good ships to play as and to fight against.

DJ Curtis is it okay if I ask you a question? How many of your Enterprise Gs do you think it should take to take down the J? I know this is unrelated but it would be a nice reference for how strong it should be.

I really don't have a clue.

And sorry, Sov.  Got you mixed up.
