A ship skin idea

[Pieter Boelen]

Ah. I see. I managed to put the skeletons back on the Pearl. It seems to me that there can only be one ship with ID = 164 in the game though, so only one ship with skeletons. So I am going to replace the "CursedPearl" with 164 and re-enable the skeletons! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/danse1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="danse1.gif" />

I'm back (without a new computer, there were a couple of complications)

Good work on finishing off my research Cylon13. Glad to see that bought to conclusion.

You sure you can't assign more than one ship the same refship.id number?

if refship.id and the numbers in ships.h were the same thing (which I presume they are if this is working) then you should be able to have two ships the same. One of the key things about adding ships to stock is that you couldn't go outside the range of values that there were in ships.h or your cannons wouldn't fire. I'll see if this is the case.

EDIT: No you appear to be right. I can't double up refShip.ID. Thats a feature we lost from stock then, the ability to give more than one ship the cursed crew. Just out of interest, who would the comment PS signify, as that's who stripped the numbers and defines out of ships.h (which is what allowed us to double up.)

I have NO idea who PS is. I do know that an ID is used to identify a specific ship or character or location and doubling it would create confusion for the game on what we mean. I don't think there is anything we can do about that. But does it matter that much? There is only one ship that MUST have a skeleton crew: The cursed Black Pearl. For other cursed ships it is just fun. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
