Crash because of aircraft type

(1/4) > >>

TrashMan:
I added some weapons and made changes to hte game and everything worked fine. However, I then decided to add a newaircraft. I did thing before in the older UFO versions.

This time however, whenever I clock on their aircraft tab (in buy/sell) the game crashes stating that inter_starfire is not a known type.
tehy tpsye is set to interceptor tough.

I made the necessarsy meshes and placed them in appropriate folders, added hte craft to the research.ufo, models.ufo and aircraftmanagment.ufo.

What the hell could be causing this weird error?

Mattn:
you would have to modify code to make this work (scripts.c, humanAircraftType_t, V_AIRCRAFTTYPE)

TrashMan:
WUT?

You hard-coded aircraft now?
WHY??
I had no problem adding my own aircraft in 2.3.
And the only type listed in any file is "craft" or "interceptor....


I'm confused...is it possible to add a new interceptor or not?

TrashMan:
another question: Is there any way to set the ratio of male-to-female recruits?

Mattn:
currently you have to modify the code to add new interceptors or aircraft. this is due to the fact that we have to be able to identify the craft for various in-game structs. i hope this will get removed anytime soon - but not for 2.4
