Requested feature

Talk about anything related to old versions of Armada.

Hi, with the new modular feature it'd be great if you could build multiples of the same pod. So if I added a torpedo turret (pod) to a ship I could then build it again later on another ship.

just a thought.

hm from my current tests this is already working. for example if you use the fturret as a "pod" on a research station you can "research" it on every station. if you want the same station to have more then one fturret you will have to copy the odf (fturret_1, fturret_2, etc..).

Optec...have you investigated at all..why it seems that stock names only work for some people and others can change the names and still have the pods work? I can only build pods for say shipyards with the stock fyard and fyard2..but when I try to build them under a different odf name...it fails to work for me..i can build one...but no more than that.

not quite what I meant, I'll run through a scenario...

I make a mod that allows a small stationto be built that can build 4 turrets on it (a super turret station) these are rturrpod1.odf, rturrpod2.odf, rturrpod3.odf, rturrpod4.odf. during a game I build the station with all the pods. I then build another of these stations but it wont let me build the turrets again.

hm strange, that works for me as long as the 4 turrets are not of the "pod" classlabel but normal stations. could you perhaps mail me the odfs, we can take a closer look to this then and fix it :)

sure...i don't mean classlabel...i mean..the classlabels are 'shipyard'. but i can only use fyard.odf not fyardpod.odf or fedpodyard.odf..it doesn't like them..it builds one yard..but not more than one. but if i have fyard and fyard2. it builds each of them of, one right after the other with no problem

ahh, I have just checked my 1.2 folder and it runs the older version of the mod with the "pod" classlabel, thanks!
