Title: Diplomatic Delivery Mission question
Post by: Chris Jones on December 26, 2004, 11:15:23 pm

In these missions, how does the script call the planet? Is it a specific planet called or random. A question has come up on the UAW server about planets on diplomatic missions having shields. Since I have changed a lot of things in the mod, planets included, I'd like to assure that these missions do not come up with shielded planets.

Thank you.. :)

The planet creation in Met_22Diplomatic (I'm assuming this is the mission you are refering to) is as follows:

void tPlanetTeam::mCreateShipsForTeam()
{
   int32 planetDice = fMissionInfo->mRandomInt32( 1, 100 );

   if( planetDice < 6 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL1", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 12 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL2", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 18 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL3", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 24 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL4", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 30 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL5", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 36 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL6", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 42 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL7", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 48 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL7", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 54 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL9", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 60 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL10", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 66 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL11", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 72 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL12", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 78 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL13", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 84 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL14", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 90 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL15", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else if( planetDice < 95 )
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL16", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
   else
   {
      mCreateShip( typeid( tPlanet ), "PL17", kStartPosition_Z, kNoMetaShipID,
                              -1, 0, 0, -1, -1, NULL, kDefaultShipOptions );
   }
}


Essentially, the planet that appears is random, and will be any of the above types taken directly from the shiplist. So changes to these planets in the shiplist will effect this mission. The mission can be recompiled with different planets if you have a specific use for them and still want to use this mission in a campaign.
