How do i get the Venator in the game?

[Guusje]

hi all,

 

i want the Veantor in my game but i read somewhere on this forum that you need the demo.

 

i dont have the demo anymore

 

 

now my question is: how do i get the Venator in the game without the demo?

Alright the Venator is in the uniqueunits.xml file and is called the jedi cruiser. You can then add it using the unit name in that file. Someone here with more modding expierence can help you from that point on, but if you expierement you should be able to figure it out.

Also, I wanna know this, but I want it to act like a fighter, e.g I want it to move horizontally and vertically not just horizontally.

To make something act like a fighter, it needs two things:

 

<SpaceBehavior>FIGHTER_LOCOMOTOR</SpaceBehavior>

 

That needs to be added in to the list of all the other space behaviors, of course.

 

and

 

<Space_Layer>Fighter</Space_Layer>

 

You can leave the space layer line out, because I think it defaults to fighter, but don't leave a line that says <Space_Layer>Frigate</Space_Layer>.

 

You'll definitely have to mess with the turn rate, roll rate, etc. and this is still going to look extremely weird for a ship the size of the Venator.

 

Extremely.

 

But hey, have fun!
