When you confidently click "OK" thinking "surely my last save wasn't that long ago".

Indeed, apparently this algorithm is determined by the model keyword taking the robo string as the argument value, and therefore applies to all host stations (with their own unique Robo Extension arrays).

The detailed mechanism appears to first calculate…

Wow. I did not know the vehicle numbering in UA was this nuanced. I guess it makes sense though, as 132 is a big leap away from 62, so perhaps it was not an arbitrary choice.

There is also the viewangle parameter in the LDF which controls the in- plane …

Quick Update: I cannot seem to replicate the issue with Robo viewer camera when robo_data_slot value is set to 0. I have tried the following options :

• Change all robo_data_slot values of all standard host stations in the default Robo.SCR file to 0.
• Change

Interesting. After reading your post I have investigated a little further on this topic and so far I have noticed the following.

About the 16 integer limit I mentioned earlier, it appears to be used in some kind of a modulo operation (i.e. 'variable' %…

This appears to be a more subtle issue than I remember.

I first tried setting all of the robo_data_slot parameters to 0 for every robo, and the game loaded fine. However I noticed that after doing so, the game ignored the robo camera that I set up on the …

Thanks, although I have not investigated it in detail yet, I presume this could be an universal limit constant that takes all available parsed scripts from the default data scripts directory into account, which means it could potentially override the…

That's an interesting suggestion. I have not but I'll give it a shot when I finish the rest of the designs. I suppose there's really no reason for the net robos to be in the game. I'll follow up later on this.

I was inspecting binaries today and noticed something. If I'm not mistaken, the maximum number of Robo definitions in scripts should be 16. This means the two extra Robo files containing the multiplayer variants of host stations (inetrobo.scr and…
