I was wondering about Pirates

Post by 2guncohen »

Can we mod our own flavored unique pirate faction ?

I mean with this question : Because now you have basically the random pictures in the races folder: balanced ,mercenary ,raider and smuggler.

And then you choose the race of your "pirates" and the race gives you the troopset and shipset for your new pirate faction.

But what if i want a selfmade unique flavored Pirate faction ?

Is this possible ?

You mean like a Pirate only race? Seems possible from what I can tell in the race text files but I haven't had the chance to test it out for myself.

Code: Select all

'Can be Pirate: indicates whether this race can be a pirate faction or not (Y/N)
 CanBePirate		;Y
 
 'Can be Normal Empire: indicates whether this race can be a normal empire or not (Y/N)  (e.g. may set as only CanBePirate, but not CanBeNormalEmpire)
 CanBeNormalEmpire		;N
 
 'Playable: indicates whether this race can be selected by the player as their empire's race at start of game or not (Y/N)
 Playable		;Y

That "Should" give you a Pirate only playable race/faction.
