Custom Resources
Posted: Fri Mar 09, 2007 5:12 am
I've created a custom resource " lumber mill" following this post by gforce on how to make copied in-city industries http://www.hookedforums.com/forwarder.h ... php?t=1374 and all went well. I have the actual mill in the game and all the icons and traincars, etc are working fine except....
My custom mill starts out at large size (graphically). Meaning fully upgraded. When I put it in via the editor, it pops up to full size right off the bat. Since it's a direct copy of the lumber mill (all changes made to .nif and .kfm files to reference custom named files), I figured it would "act" just like the lumber mill. Not so. Either in the editor or while in a game, my mill shows graphically as Large Mill, even though the info for it states it's small. Even when putting it in via the editor and choosing small size, it's fully upgraded. This is one of the latest things that make me go "Hmm".
If anybody else has created (copied) a resource facility (not in-city industry) and have it working in regards to upgrade sizes, would you please let me know how you achieved this. I've already scratched a bald spot on my cranium thinking about this.
Oh and one more thing, I have created in-city industries as well with out any issues. Creating the resource industries is basically the same.
