New to the game

[kritter]

I am new to the game and have played harpoon with its database editor. Is there a way to modify the platforms and weapons? I tried adding a mount and magizine to a platform with out success ( could not make it fire ). I think I am missing the basics. I found the templetes, but there is missing information like target type. I must be missing something.

Many of the mounts may require an associated fire control radar. Let me know what you're trying to do and I'll try and give you a walkthrough.

Another way is look at existing platforms and see how they're built

Thanks!

For instance I want to add TASM missiles to one of the subs. Or add it to a ship and make the missile BOL capable. I looked at the other ship and thought I had done it correctly but probably not. Any help would be appreciated.

Is there an editor for the database?

No database editor. There are ways to swap gear around. Mike can fill you in better.

Not yet and it may not appear for some time.

This you can do. When you open the weapons dialog while in the scenario editor you'll notice add mounts and add weapons record buttons (likewise delete). You'll also find similar buttons in the sensors dialog.

You can't modify the properties of the missiles although you can add any number of a 1000 or so which should meet the parameters you're looking for.

Thanks I will play with that.
