Firmware Update for the Signal Booster

Firmware Update for the Signal Booster

Feel free to include any or all of the LUA in any mod or usage you may want.

Added a new version
Three additional options have been added:

Observatory
Planetary Archives (by request)
Crashed Freighters

The following are all the exciting things the scanner can now find

Dialog 1

Portals
Crashed Starships (Custom reward, default one was shared 50\50 with stranded NPC’s)
Multi-Tool location (Custom reward)

Dialog 2

Manufacturing Facility
Exosuit DropPod
Planetary Archives* (Custom reward)

Dialog 3

Crashed Freighters
Observatory
Scan Habitable Outposts (A random habitable location)

The REWARDTABLE.MBIN file is pretty common to change, if this mod can only find drop pods you most likely have a conflict with another mod

Updates both the:
EXML\METADATA\REALITY\TABLES\NMS_DIALOG_GCALIENPUZZLETABLE.EXML

EXML\METADATA\REALITY\TABLES\REWARDTABLE.EXML –Caution this table is changed by many different mods.

LUA Notes\Other Modders:
The LUA was reworked to make maintenance and extendibility much better.
Previously 1.x was written as LUA in a day as 3.38 broke my original work.
It was a quick and dirty LUA that manipulated and shoved data around.

The new structure makes adding additional options super easy, even re-arranging the options is a simple task.
So if you use AMUMSS which you should if you are modding NMS, you can customize this mod to suit your taste.

You can put the options in whichever arrangement you want
Adding a new option is just two pieces of information
Rewards can also be added, again with just two parameters
Removing any option(s) is even easier
See the notes in the LUA

New 2.0 Signal booster upgrade to find Portals, Crashed Ships, Multi Tools, Factories, Drop Pods, Planetary Archives, Crashed Freighters, and Observatory with no inputs.
