Re: modifications to the game, displaying images on the screen via lua scripts
what are the limitations of lua scripts, is it possible to add objects to planets with their help? No. See https://codedoc.pioneerspacesim.net for methods currently supported. Adding image is probably no very beginner friendly. Adding or improving a mission module might be more viable. Or use our c...

Re: Some ideas : hangar and interactive cockpits MFDs
Parkng ships would be nice, and we'd like to have. However, separating ship from player in the code is a massive task, thus will not happen soon, unless someone becomes very motivated to do a very big menial task. Coud we expect multifunctions displays I believe that is the plan, yes. Currently, we'...

They're all trained on pictures of celebrities....The more I look at these face and human generators, the more dead the output seem.

Re: Astronomy vs. Phantasy
I don't think we're wedded to the idea there must be current planetary configuration in Sirius. It would be nice with inhabited worlds in Sirius, if possible, or a space station. Really good that you're doing some custom system (and testing out using System Editor, please report bugs & strangene...

Re: Updating the wiki mission scripting tutorial
No, as you've no doubt noticed there's plenty of obsolete code examples on the wiki, because we've changed how things are done, how modules are imported, etc. However, the code that pioneer runs on is always valid (ehum, except when there's bugs in them). Either way, it's good to point a reader to m...

Re: Updating the wiki mission scripting tutorial
Btw, wiki code examples and such will sooner or later become obsolete.
I'd advice to add to the modding wiki, to encourage the student to look at simple modules we have, like the Advice module, 100 lines of code. then look at DonateToCranks for some menu interactions, and DeliverPackage for missions.
