Re: help with loadouts.ini Quote: Code: Build 27 Loadouts (or how to make metagame compatible mods)
Alright so, a loadout is what is used in the metagame for bunker blueprints and AI ordering, aswell as automatically fed over to the presets menu in the buy menu.
In order to use a tech with the metagame, it has to have a name that contains "tech".
So "ModuleName = Coalition Tech" instead of "ModuleName = Coalition"
In B27 the tech loadouts are in Tech.rte/Loadouts.ini.
MAke sure to put it last in the index.ini like this:
Code:
DataModule
ModuleName = Coalition Tech
IconFile = ContentFile
Path = Coalition.rte/ModuleIcon.bmp
IncludeFile = Coalition.rte/Effects/Effects.ini
IncludeFile = Coalition.rte/Devices/Devices.ini
IncludeFile = Coalition.rte/Actors/Actors.ini
IncludeFile = Coalition.rte/Loadouts.ini
Here's how a standard loadout looks like:
Code:
AddLoadout = Loadout
PresetName = Infantry Light
DeliveryCraft = ACRocket
PresetName = Base.rte/Rocket MK1
AddCargoItem = AHuman
PresetName = Coalition.rte/Soldier Light
AddCargoItem = HDFirearm
PresetName = Coalition.rte/Assault Rifle
AddCargoItem = TDExplosive
PresetName = Coalition.rte/Grenade
Current deployment loadout names:
Default (Think of this as Assault infantry)
Infantry Brain
Infantry Light
Infantry CQB
Infantry Heavy
Infantry Sniper
Infantry Grenadier (RPG or grenade launcher primary usually)
Infantry Engineer (unit with heavier digger)
Mecha (dreadnought etc)
Turret (colition gatling turret etc.)
By following this your mod should be metagame compatible, knock yourself out. I don't remember where I got this from but I followed this when I made mine. It may be outdated though..

Re: help with loadouts.ini Nope, it most definitely should be the problem.
Double-check capitalization.

Re: help with loadouts.ini You should start by defining your craft properly. Code: AddLoadout = Loadout
PresetName = Infantry light
DeliveryCraft = ACDropShip // this line is missing in many loadouts
PresetName = Bunkbust.rte/bunker buster dropship
AddCargoItem = AHuman
PresetName = bunkbust.rte/bunker buster
AddCargoItem = HDFirearm
PresetName = bunkbust.rte/Blunderbanshee
