yeah I didn't have much luck with the pre built lists either so I just made my own

Oh, so it's just like box to box moving? I've been trying to find examples on how to use the Predefined ID Lists to like, auto-sort the base for me, but I can't figure it out for the life of me

@Hammander Oh just change it to what ever you like. so a thing like boxname1 change to boxname2 or scriptname1 to scriptname2. In the transfer script that variable is like a virtualbox used to transfer. so just change the name to var1, var2 etc

Hi, I love the walkthrough, it's been helping a lot to try and learn how all this works, but I'm stuck on the parts that refer to Multi instance, like "Edit the variable change-this-variable-name-2"

I see that the script has several "change-this-variable-name-2", so I assume that's what it's referring to, but what do I change it to? I haven't been able to find any info that I can follow at least to point me in the right direction

yeah so input lcd name is Scritpt:NameX and out put LCD is just NameX
Noob  [author] 4 Jan, 2024 @ 3:38pm 
@IceMann yeah each script should have it's own unique name

Each LCD I change the name to the script name? should it be the same name on each LCD? or name it something different for each LCD.

Simply diesel, yes you just need to add in the 4 digit item id to the list of fuels to be used

After you place a core and set to faction, are still Alien boxes? I don't know scripting but can't those containers be added to the blocks list?
No worries, I just loot from the P menu Containers dropdown. :) Thanks!
Noob  [author] 21 Mar, 2023 @ 5:17pm 
@Pappy nothing yet that will pull the loot form the box's. I was going to play around with something like that but I don't think it will be able to pull from alien containers.

Is there a script that recycles/decons but leaves the loot boxes behind? I tried both, one gives all blocks (but not loots?) and one gives all salvaged materials broken down to components and ores but I still don't see it grabbing loot from boxes.

Can the script for refill use biofuel? My ship can use all other sources for fuel except biofuel

Hi Bubba. this line here. {{~set 'change-this-variable-name'. This is basically like a virtual box to pack your items in for a movement. It will appear a number of times on a move script LCD and needs to be the same throughout that LCD. If you make another LCD should make a new virtual box name for that LCD. Basically though you don't want to duplicate things like script names or variables like that to prevent issues. Also never move the same item ID more than once on a single LCD, will create performance issues.

In the script it has 'change variable'. what should this be?

I stumbled upon this ship in workshop. I didn't even know scripting like this existed. Your tutorial helped me quickly get a basic grasp of things. Thank you very much!

Version 10 of Astic Scripts Mod has added DB access so now you can have it list all the planets you found Gold or Silver etc from and easy go back and find.

Except for constructors, there is almost no limit to what you can script now.

I tried to use most example of the scripts in my ships but many found it hard to understand the code I did. Now I point them to this blueprint instead.

Cool thank you as i suck at lcd design
Myrmidon 11 Jun, 2022 @ 6:49am 
Many thanks :steamthumbsup:
Noob  [author] 10 Jun, 2022 @ 9:31am 
@whwatson. A lot more. I couldn't even begin to list everything but a few notables are complete ship recycle scripts. Automatic farm harvesting. Check out astics tutorial ship or his own Vega ai.

Aside from scripting inventory, what else would scripting be able to handle using the astic mod? Just curious what the upper limit is on the mod.
Jack Daniel069 6 Jun, 2022 @ 10:22pm 
thank u for this.

Of course it can "fight" a Tovera. Win....better odds of 3 raccoons in a trench coat winning the US presidency. Low, but never zero.
ProcyonLotor 6 Jun, 2022 @ 9:44am 
Can it fight a Tovera? I'm joking. Very nice idea I'll test it out :)

It has thrusters you can totally fly it. If I see someone cruising around in one on a server I'll lol so hard though.
CheesyWamBam 5 Jun, 2022 @ 2:08pm 
Just spawned it in and went through it. Amazing. Very clear, very easy to follow and looks pretty good too. Might even chuck some thrusters on it and call it good lol :)
Noob  [author] 5 Jun, 2022 @ 1:52pm 
Glad you like, let me know if everything makes sense. It will let work through it and get the scripts running on the ship. Can then apply to your own builds.
CheesyWamBam 5 Jun, 2022 @ 1:50pm 
oooooooosh, you utter legend. I was expecting a flat platform with a few boxes. Outstanding effort my man. Hugely appreciated :)
