Changing the ordering of Scripted Campaigns

[forktailedflyer7]

It was never much of a problem, but after installing the flight school campaigns there are just too many in the list for it to be completely unorganized.

 

Is there anyway to reorder how the game displays the campaigns?

Yes you can edit the campaign text file. This works for non-encrypted (unofficial) campaigns only.

The info.txt file in each campaign?  

 

What are the ones that come with the game/purchased from the store set to?  1?

Yes, adjust the &order value in info.txt for each unpaid campaign (0=first, 1=second, etc.). Paid campaigns always appear first. For more about creating campaigns see here and here.

Thanks guys.  I got it going.

 

Seems like the paid campaigns are set to 1, 2, 3 ... because some of the unpaid campaigns would get mixed in with those so I just moved down to the 20+ range.

There are so many in the Flight school that I placed them in Missions folder

You mean on the Campaigns selection page at game start?

Bought a few officials, and have quite many user made ones.

 

I did the same, mainly because of tile size, IMO a little too large ... there's no 'overview', only in the mission folders ..

PS has anyone developed a powershell or bat file script to 'automatically' change all the 'mission type' lines in the .mission files within a folder from 3 to 0?

(sets them form campaign to (SP?) mission).

I have actually been working on a tool to edit the campaign save progress and I think it would not be a problem to add an option to change sorting as well.

Did that for myself after I have lost the files when my hard drive failed but I was actually planning on releasing it to public.. so if it loops through all your save campaigns then adding an option to provide sorting would not be a problem.

Powershell is meh, too much complicated running it from windows explorer, I actually do prefer batch scripts and from batch script you can also run powershell commands (call powershell with a command)
