PDnoHangar

OK, thanks. And yes, I do agree that it’s stupid that you can’t have a larger ship with PD without also having to have Hangars.

I would say the only reason I wrote this mode was because when 1.8 changed the flak to a PD weapon. You no long had the abilty to just add some PD without taking the whole prime mid section of your battleship. This mod allows you to have a mid section with 3 large guns again and have some PD in the stern.

This is my first mod but I am a programer in multiple langauges over the years so the syntax was not hard to figure out.

I have a file with two ship_section_template which define my two new sections. these just get added to anything that already exists. The "key" is the key, here is a snipet of the file, I can't put the whole thing in because the curly brackets seem to be causing issues or the text is too long.

This starts the Battleship one, Now if someone else does a mod and calls their key the same name, then I guess the last one loaded will be used but two mods keys will have to match exactly.

key = "Battleship Stern PD"
ship_size = battleship
fits_on_slot = stern
entity = "battleship_stern_M1S2_entity"
icon = "GFX_ship_part_core_stern"


From what I was able to figure out, the entity can be reused multiple times as long as your keys are different.

It claims it doesn't overwrite any files, but... I'm not a very experienced Workshop user.

Wait... I'm already using another mod that adds a bunch more Battleship Hull Sections. Will it conflict with this on?

Nice!

Add a new one, the original ones are still there, you get another choice

So this adds a new Section type? Or does it replace the existing Section type?
