I´m having a problem with the painting of my ships when they are on a different team. If i go to sandbox mode the ship has the colour it should have (mostly some grey tones), but when i spawn the same ship as an enemy some sections have a red tone and if i spawn the ship as an allied some sections have a blue tone. That looks totally bad and i don't want the sections to change their colour. What do I have to do?
If you don't want to use any of the built-in team colors, you should avoid using the top three colors in the list in shipmaker (as those automatically change to the team colors in game).
I've been having this trouble for a while. Whenever I hide a section, it hides fine. When I unhide it however, sometimes it shows parenting lines go far to the right, at a point where I can't see them. And I can't get the section back. It's also usually a section that if I deleted, would screw up other sections as well.
It's not my fault I can't take your post seriously.
don't know what the problem is there, but i've seen it before. to sort it out you have to open the .sb4 in notepad, find the section that it was a change the epically large number (s) to something more like 3600, which is around the co-ordinates of the core
An issue with turret sections:
I've got the driver set to no shoot, a couple of firing weapons in place and all mounted on a turret section. The problem is the whole thing can spin 360 degrees when all three weapons on it only have firing arcs of 90 degrees. Have I missed something or is there simply nothing that can be done about it?
the two firing weapons should have firing arcs of one degree so that they don't turn the turrets total firing arc is set by the driver.

Holiness is in right action, and courage on behalf of those who cannot defend themselves, and goodness. " Kingdom of heaven.
you don't need to set the firing arcs of the firing weapons to anything, just link them to the driver. and yeah, the driver sets the turning arc of the whole turret

Don't forget that the driver should never be parented to the turret it drives. Pretty simple but very important.

Aha, so that's what I've been doing. Much appreciated.

for example kaelis his mecha sections ( Kae_mechasw.rar) belong in the Kae_mechasw folder...
which would give something like: Battleships Forever\Custom sprites\Kae_mch-sw
see if putting your sections like that fixes your problem...
I guess this solution is the same one for your problem...
