Is everyone ok with Friday 7PM UCT?

19:00 UTC is 21:00 CEST. As I have something planned on this friday between 20:00 CEST and ~22:00 CEST, I might not be able to join. It would be better if we could move it to 20:00 UTC or to saturday (whole day) / sunday (morning / afternoon).

It didn't work

I've found why it didn't work.

I forgot that I split this into 2 separate events SECTOR_ENTER and SPAWN_SHIP
So now you can't just add ships from the SECTOR_ENTER event, instead you need to have a SPAWN_SHIP event.
Which you will call from your SECTOR_ENTER event by using
<event_param chain_event="SPAWN_SHIP_EVENT_NAME"></event_param>
<event_param chain_event="SPAWN_SHIP_EVENT_NAME2"></event_param>

This way you can reuse the same SPAWN_SHIP event in different SECTOR_ENTER events, in different combinations.
Also this allows to call any other type of event when a ship enter the sector.

Check out the example.xml2 file
Look for SECTOR_ENTER event, and see how it's calling the Spawn an asteroid event.

Thanks for the help

As for the CBT.

The first CBT will be this saturday.
Whoever can join this saturday please post,
So far it's only JRB.

If you can't make it this saturday, then you will have a chance to join the next CBT.
Because I plan to have several of them anyway - to ballance the scenario a bit.

[TehBobo]

I am interested in participating in the CBT but I am not sure if I will have Internet. If I do I will let you know. If not then I won't be able to post.
