Editing sheild/reactor values

Post by Mopman »

I downloaded the csveditorv2 from here ( wonderful program ) and used it to try out some changes to shield and reactor values in units.csv .

I started very simple I simply changed the shield strength and capacitor output of the level 1 of each type by a small margin.

I started up privateer ( latest version ) and the changes showed up at the equipment shop but I could not buy the shield I changed or ANY of the reactors until I restored the backup to reset things.

Any advice would be much appreciated and I thank you in advance.

Make sure to sell your old reactor and shield first before trying to buy the new ones.

If you also changed the name or key of your items, make sure to put in the new details into master_part_list.csv. This file holds every item which is buyable right from the beginning.

This is why its a bad idea to try any editing at 2 in the morning :oops:

Thanks Dilloh your advise to sell before buying did the trick I was looking for a complex solution and missed the simple one.
