I'm just getting back into VegaStrike and i have few questions.

1) I had some new weapons i was working on in ver.0.4.3 is incorparating them in to ver 0.5 the same as the older version?

I have noticed already the units xml file has been ordered differently (looks like alpha ordering) So will adding the weapons to the end affect the game or do they need to be put in alpha as the rest of the units.

2) I haven't looked yet, has the master parts list been reordered?

3) same question for the weapons list.

I want to try to write a mission for a specail ship at some point so , I'll get back with those questions later.

1) Yeap no change weapon_list.xml ,units.csv and master_part.list..csv in conjunction with each other and the ordering is most likely just an artefact of your file browser :wink: the order within the file is strictly for us humans not the code :shock: so to wrap it up no real changes.

Enjoy the Choice :)

I think the upgrade system has changed somewhat (every upgrade must be added as a cargo item) but weapons themselves have not changed--they are the exception to the new upgrade system.

Make sure you keep track of the column headings in the CSV--they may have been reordered in 0.5, or new ones may have been added.
