Help patching out vanilla content.

[klun222]

Hey, I did this (3 code examples):

<sup><li Class="PatchOperationRemove">
            <xpath>Defs/ResearchProjectDef[defName = "PlateArmor"]</xpath>
         </li>

<li Class="PatchOperationRemove">
            <xpath>ThingDef[defName = "Gun_PumpShotgun"]</xpath>
         </li>

<li Class="PatchOperationRemove">
            <xpath>ThingDef[defName = "Apparel_PowerArmor"]</xpath>
         </li></sup>



So you see what kinds of things Im trying to patch out. So removing research works (it did remove successfully), but removing weapons and armor doesn't. Is there something wrong with my code?

Thanks.

Do not forget the Defs/ part in xpath.

Just did that, doesnt work

For what it's worth, "/Defs/" is better than just "Defs/"

I assume this is all part of a PatchOperationSequence?

Code Select Expand


<li Class="PatchOperationRemove">
            <xpath>/Defs/ThingDef[defName = "Gun_PumpShotgun"]</xpath>
         </li>


That code does look like it should work, if it is in a sequence thing?  What does your entire XML look like?

Yes, its a part of patch operation sequence, it should remove about 10 resserch and 15 weapons or apparel. In the same file, it removes resserch but not the other.

I just tried with a single line patch file and it does remove a weapon.

And your patch sequence isn't getting stopped by one of the earlier patches returning "fail"?

I dunno, it works now, seems the patch was too long maybe? I made 3 patch files and now they work.
