ComponentDefinitions.xml with name right under id, and bonus ShipHulls.xml Summary spreadsheet.

Post by iancmtaylor »

Does what it says on the tin. It's been weeks but I've finally gotten so sick of dealing with the name of the component being at the bottom of the listing, that I manually went through the file and moved it to the top right under the id.

Code: Select all

  <ComponentDefinition>
    <ComponentId>369</ComponentId>
    <Name>Devastator Pulse [X]</Name>
    <ImageFilename>UserInterface/Placeholder</ImageFilename>
    <Size>80</Size>
Ahhhhhhh that's better! :ugeek:

Enjoy the increased efficiency while modding, fellow nerds.

(Save this in a seperate folder somewhere. If it ever gets updated, do a Compare check.)

I don't think I made any mistakes, but let me know if I did.

ship_hulls_cheatsheet.zip is a .ods spreadsheet that just lists ShipHullid,RaceId,Role,Level

It's written shorthand, but if you look at the .xml you'll understand. The large blank areas are just the same race repeated. HullId = row - 2

Nice work - comes in handy, indeed; -thanks for sharing it. :D

EDIT: But you could have zipped the XML, too to upload it. ;)
