Hi People need a little help here.

Ok, I'm adding a spaceship part & testing my ability to build it under debug mode, so I've placed it in Agriculture and named it "Makers Artifact".

Right, so it appears in the TECH tree exactly as you would expect to see:

it's the second icon from the left under Agriculture, as agriculture is a default start TECH the building should be available to be built, as it has no other requirements see:
Imp & Won.jpg and General settings Gen.jpg

Here is the city build screen City.jpg As you can see it's not available to be built... any thoughts... as I'm missing something!

Thanks All
 
It looks like its because you dont have the wonder that allows the parts to be built, built yet. You need to have a wonder that allows the building of space ship parts. If you dont want the players to have to build a specific wonder, then you assign the Build Spaceship Parts flag to another wonder or wonders, or put it on the Palace.

Also, I see you have 5 parts needed for the SR Victory or whatever you have called it. While the victory would work with 5 parts, if you want to see the part screen, you need at least 10 parts to be able to access it.
 
ok, so if I understand to build a spaceship part, it has to be assigned to a Wonder first?

So it's build a Wonder and flag the Spaceships parts to it? Must be a Wonder I did try the Palace with no joy, still that's not a Wonder...

Many thanks for the stab at this I was struggling a bit lol.

I will let you know how I get on! Thank you.

You have to have built a wonder that has the "Build SpaceShip Parts" flag. This allows you to see any parts you have available in the build list and begin constructing them. If you remember in the default game you have to build the Apollo Program to start building the parts.

You should be able to flag the Palace as a small wonder, but then that probably affects switching capitals mid-game unless you use another editor like Quintullus' to put such a flag on an improvement.
 
Ho no!

Talk about missing the obvious! lol I don't mind feeling foolish, I'd much rather have the answer.

Many thanks, yep found the flag.

Never really play the default game, played a variation of the Mediterranean mod for years before starting a total conversion of my own which I've been working on & off for years. I'm just trying to sort out various Victory conditions.

You have saved me a lot of time, I'd have got their eventually...

Thank You
 
Yep tested and works

Interestingly I made the Palace into a Small Wonder and flagged it accordingly.

Interestingly, when starting a new game upon founding your first city you will need a Wonder Splash for the Palace to be added, which then pops up on founding first city and is quite a nice way to start the game!

So I will Flag the Palace as everyone has one and use TECH advance to activate for building said part.

Well Got there eventually!
 
this should solve it, I don't know about making the palace a small wonder though... it could work.

You might find this helpful, Balthasar made a space ship alternative based on the 1960 movie the time machine:
