problem getting new ammo to sell at bases.

[karrmcdebt]

Trying to figure out how to get a new ammo to sell at a base, its the ammo for kamakazi coralskippers. I got the launchers working and added them into the equipment.

What all files need to be changed to make it work, I'm sure I'm just missing one of them.

The Force is not yet with you young Jedi but it might be after you read this.

There are three files needed for this, weapon_equip.ini, weapon_good.ini and market_misc.ini.

The first one defines the weapon, the second makes a goods entry for the weapon that you can sell, finally the third one makes it for sale at a base. I'll use the Javelin Missile as an example,

That takes care of the missile itself and it's launcher. Next up is the goods file.

Notice the seperate entries for the gun and the ammo. Lastly you need to make them available and for this you need

[glow=red,2,300]market_misc.ini[/glow]

[BaseGood]
base = Br01_01_base
MarketGood = missile01_mark01, 0, -1, 10, 10, 0, 1
MarketGood = missile01_mark01_ammo, 0, -1, 50, 50, 0, 1

That should do it. Check for typos as that can cause a world of hurt lol

Yes i do see something straight away, assuming these files are a direct copy of yours.

weapon_good.ini

[Good]
nickname = kamikaze_skip_ammo
equipment = kamikaze_skip_ammo
shop_archetype = equipment\models\torpedoes\ge_torpedo.3db
material_library = equipment\models\ge_equip.mat
category = equipment
price = 5200
item_icon = equipment\models\commodities\nn_icons\EQUIPICON_mine.3db
combinable = ture **************** What's this? looks like a typo to me

[Bejaymac]

Your market file reads-

MarketGood = kamikaze_skip_ammo, 0, -1, 10, 10, 0, 1

When it should be -

MarketGood = kamikaze_skip_ammo, 0, -1, 50, 50, 0, 1

Hardware is set at 10 while consumables are set at 50

[lord]

where i can set reputaion needed to buy ammo ???

[Thaddeus]

not quite sure what youre trying to say...

but in the line

MarketGood = kamikaze_skip_ammo, 0, -1, 50, 50, 0, 1

the second number (-1) governs the reputation (you must be more friendly to buy) factor of the item

so
-1 - theyll sell even if youre an enemy
0 - neutral
0.75 - 0.9 very friendly
