Sector editing Mod

[robiMath]

Hi, guys,

I wanted to ask you if anybody knows a mod to adjust the sectors. It bothers me a lot that these are generated automatically. I would like to remove some star systems and add others. I have noticed that there are mods where you can vary the distance of the automatically generated sectors, but in my opinion this is no solution. Sometimes I would like to have a star system in a sector which is 3 jumps away and a star system which is 5 jumps away. But this is not possible. In the previous sector system there was this possibility. Is it not possible to add these sectors constructed by players via mod?

I look forward to your answers.

That's not possible. <- That's not correct.

It's possible, but complicate. I'm actually working on this. A small spoiler:

 

[Ryika]

I... take that back then.

Could you summarize how it's done? I'm clearly missing something.

I'm playing with system weights for each sector. I've replaced default ones with my own. So any system won't be automatically included without your actions. I've made a simple UI interface for each system where you can attach it to any neighbor sector. System receives a temporary flag which boosts the weight for specific sector to include and next day it will be incorporated. Detachment is a bit more complicated, I have to reset the ownership for a system by 1 day to expel system from an active sector.

I hope I'll be able to release the beta next few days, you can read the main thread by the link in my signature.

Spoiler: system_scores

    system_scores = {

        # basic
        base = @irm_sector_base

        # to init
        modifier = {
            mult = @irm_sector_init
            irm_system_sector_init = { id = 01 }
        }

        # to include
        modifier = {
            mult = @irm_sector_norm
            irm_system_sector_norm = { id = 01 }
        }

    }

Ah, I see. Yeah, that's some very clever workarounds. I didn't even think about the fact that you can manipulate the weights.

Thanks a lot.

Something like this:

where can we get that? Looks great!!! Have you released it yet???

I'm going to release next few days.
