stolenraysm hi,
yes you are correct,
im using a new dawn,
it will be difficult for you to extract the source for both parts, the easier will be to get is diplo.
but - if you want afforess released the diplo mod as a stand alone, long time ago - working very good, but the code in a new dawn is more up to date - so what i suggest is first to add to your mod the advance diplomacy stand alone (look it up under mod components), agter you finish (and compiled to be sure you merged right), compare your new code to that of a new dawn and youll be ale to update the diplo code from a new dawn to be up to date.
that sounds complicated but its not, just might take a while.
as for espionage - ell thats more tricky - the spies mod is commented with "tsheep" marker, and the added afforess might not be all marked - but not sure.
you should search for both a "super spies" mark tag and both "tsheep" mark tag, and merge those parts.
i never tried to extract the spy code as a stand alone, but if you go step by step its doble.
plus if you want - theres a stand alone of the super spies mod for bts 3.19 - also look it up.
but it lacks many of the great code from afforess.
a third option - is to extract the super spies mod from dune wars mod - there it was also heavily modded and added with new cool missions.
i would suggets to you to move and use the a new dawn core as a basis for you mods, as i did, its much more easy to make future updates. and safer.
but if you prefer to do a stand alone - youll have to go through the code with the stuff i told ya, im 96% sure that all the super spies code are marked with what i mentioned.
the secret to this - is pure patients and trial and error.
dont give up if the first compile wont work look for the problems. and u can use a lot of people to help you track bugs in the sdk that you dont understand.
im sorry the other part - salt flats, im not familiar with, and mts means?
*********
oh silly me just saw you updated the super spies to bts hehehe didnt read your sig....idiot me,
even better - by comparison youll find the code needs to be updated (there are some python additions in the files - look them up).
if you need me to help, more id love to.
