Are you trying to mod the ships used in the game's campaign? Or ships used in a specific mission in a mod you're creating?

We'll need some more details, I fear... what exactly are you trying to do?

You want to make all your ships indestructible? Why?

Anyway, you could bump up the HpMax values in universetacticstacticstypes.ini for the classes you use, but that would also increase the HP of all hostile human ships. You could also edit each mission file in universemissionsepisodes to include the following code snippet:

Code: [Select]

RULE event SceneInit
:action
GetMachine("GodMode"):ChangeState(default, 0);
:end
END

MACHINE "GodMode"

STATE default

RULE event Tick
:action
SelectEx((s.ship | s.wreck) & s.race=#race_player,
s.this:damage := 0;
);
:end
END

TICK 0.1

END

END
Or better yet, save that snipped as a seperate file in the same folder as "godmode.inc" and just insert [code=orange]#include "godmode.inc"[/color] in each mission file after its SceneInit event.

This script would try to keep all player ships at maximum health. It would only fail, if you encounter an enemy weapon capable to destroy your in one shot.

Or maybe add this to the SceneInit rule...

Code: [Select]

FleetPlayer:=GetFreeSel();
SelectShips(FleetPlayer,S.race=#race_Player);
ExecList(FleetPlayer,
                SetUndamageable(S.this,1);
);
As Arparso said, you caould also have it as an 'include' file.

SetUndamageable... ah, didn't know that command :)
