im mod noob and need some help

[M.Maniac]

i started to experiment around with self made techs .


do you think this works ?
I want it to be a ship spezial ,that gives additional power to the existing shields

in the TechTables:

Shield Batterie 1 TAShBat1 TBShBat1 ShipStnd "Military, Ship" ShldTech ShipItem Energ_00 TFShiSpc None "SystCost = 200, ShdStr = 50, Recharge = 5, UniSpace *= 0.10

and in the WsTechnology :

\*TAShBat1 Shield Batterie I

\*TBShBat1 Shield Batterie I makes the shield stronger /p/p

SystemCost = 200 /p
ShielddStrength = +50 /p
Recharge = +5 /second /p
UniSpace = 0.10

and where can i find all spreadsheets and wStrings ? Looks like i need weapon speadsheets to make new weapons .

in the spreedsheets.mob file ?

but how can i extract it ?

The modding itself I can't help you with.
The *.mob files are zero-compression zip files - you can open them with Winzip easily. These *.mob files then contain all the data files of the game. Someone can probably direct you as to where best to put the files, you do not put your changes back in the *.mob file.
