odf reduction

posted on October 2nd, 2010, 10:34 pm

ok now because of ranks and avatars we have seen a surge of odfs needed per ship my suggestion is to help reduce the amount of odfs we use maybe the devs could introduce something like arrays eg
maxhealth = r1, r2, r3, r4, r5, r6

although a new odf command will be needed for weapons atleast this could be

weaponXranks = 2,3 // this weapon is usable by rank 2 and 3 only

thats possible for generic cases, but not for the very variable officer/veteran abilities and a lot of other stuff we have in mind we will stick with the odf system. We are working on better packaging to speed up the reading progress (for example to create the version hash when clicking multiplayer mode)
