Sorry for my nublet question, but what do these do? lol

Great work!
Thank you!

When I started I thought "Wow, there about a thousand commands. How nice it would be if there were a list." And lo and behold here it is. I bow before you and your mercY!

CAN WE GET THIS THREAD STICKIED PLEASE!!!!!

Add a buffInstantActionType - SpawnShipsAtPlanet used by AbilityFleetBeacon.entity

I know non-hyperspace ship speed is not in the list of research modifiers, but is there any possible way to make a research that modifies ship speed? And if there isn't this is my request to have it implemented.

One that is not on the list is buffOverTimeActionType "Magnetize".

If you try buffInstantActionType ApplyBuffToTargetsInRadius on ships and it fails to work type ApplyBuffToTargetsInRadiusWithTravel. It worked for me with no other changes at all to the code.

TFL: BuffAdaptiveShield.entity, BuffPlanetShieldOnPlanet.entity.

derbal:
Q1:It is possible, but there are dozens of other research items already queued up. Q2:TTMoveTarget make the ship move instantly towards the target (which is local to the gravity well). TTTarget looks like it stops teleporting, but is not properly named. At the bottom of a planet entity file there is a flag "Is Wormhole" T/F. You will have to use that.

Devs, we need the design doc section for all modifiers with their full condition lists, and the real world descriptions for them. We would also like a complete list of all hard coded effects and abilities such as buffOverTimeActionType "Magnetize". Thank You.

I've begun figuring out what all the various .entity files do, for reference to ease making new ones that fit my uses. This is by no means a perfect list, but I think it would help a lot of people. If something is wrong, please correct me, if something is marked with a ? at all it means I was either confused as to what it does and guessed or didn't even guess.

or you can copy and paste the lists into notepad and make use of the 'find' feature to ease your eyeballs having to look through the list.

I tried to keep with a common theme describing the buffs to make it easier to search if you know what words you're looking for. I think I developed my little descriptive convention about a third of the way in so the first third may not be perfect, I'll probably go through the list again and make sure they all have similar keywords.

how do you implement these modifiers?
im confused
