Ares
To be honest, I have absolutely no clue about Ares' way of coding.
RP had an example, so it was easier to understand.
First of, do I have to add all these special country flags to the specified country (existing: Confederation,Alliance)
An SW example, this is what I have:
Code:
[DeliverySW]
UIName=Name:DropPod
Name=Psychic Units incoming
Type=UnitDelivery
SW.Deliver=INIT,VIRUS,YTNK
RechargeTime=1 ;480,8,4,516,2,12345,12345
Cursor.Frame= ;integer
Cursor.Count= ;integer
Cursor.Interval= ;integer 5
Cursor.MiniFrame= ;integer
Cursor.MiniCount= ;integer
Cursor.HotSpot= ;list of 2 Center,Middle
NoCursor.Count= ;integer
NoCursor.Frame= ;integer
NoCursor.HotSpot= ;list of 2 Center,Middle
NoCursor.Interval= ;integer 5
NoCursor.MiniCount= ;integer
NoCursor.MiniFrame= ;integer
EVA.Detected= EVA ;event
EVA.Ready= EVA ;event
EVA.Activated= EVA ;event
I have no clue about what this Cursor value should be.
Where do I put the custom paradrop numbers? In [Sides] only thing findable is Allied=Americans etc. Soviet=Confederation etc. Thirdside=YuriCountry. Or do I have to create a massive list with side specific tags?
Maybe its time to make some sort of guide like RP had.
And now a question,
is there a Psychic Dominator Clone already? If yes, could someone give me an example of how it is done?
This all might sound very negative, but Ares is a wonderful expansion. The coding is just different, not the way I am used to see it. Thats why. _________________ QUICK_EDIT
Then figure it out. They don't spoonfeed you the answers. Heaven forbid you put some thought into it. _________________ KGR | AT

If you're having trouble with Ares, try coding without it until you get the general idea of how the rules work. After you have some experience, I suspect you will have less trouble with the conventions reinforced by Ares. QUICK_EDIT

Which special country flags do you mean? For UnitDelivery you don't have to put anything into [Side], [Countries], [Confederation], ...
The cursor values are like the RP cursors, but as separate flags:
480,8,4,516,2,12345,12345
Frame, Count, Interval, MiniFrame, MiniCount, Hotspot (in that order).
Hotspot is special: No more funny values, just some symbolic constants. Thus "12345,12345" is "Center,Middle" in Ares.
The NoCursor values aren't needed, as the SW can fire anywhere. They are only needed for Sonar or the Force Shield in Ares 0.1.
UnitDelivery doesn't support paradrop numbers. Instead, you'll have to repeat the type. If you want two INITs, put "INIT,INIT" in there.
In Ares 0.2 the Psychic Dominator will be clonable and customizable, like any other super weapon. QUICK_EDIT
