Exclusion zone help needed

    Greetings,


    I would like to ask something about this exclusion zones in Freelancer Explorer:
    If i place a cloud/nebulae into my map, how can i "cut" a part from that? I mean there is a minefield and i want to place a station for example in there. Like zone 21, or Badlands Itthaca research station where can be found a "clear" zone in the cloud without asteroids and dust. Same place Alaska Juneau shipyard...etc


    I tried this exclusion zone in freelancer exploler, but i don't know how does it work.


    I hope someone knows the answer.


    Thanks

    yes answer is simple,
    exclusion zone is part which is negated out from zone
    like this for example
    you make asteroid zone which is like 20k in diametar, then you dont want asteroids around your small depot
    so ships can have clear access to docks
    then just make exclusion zone and it like drilling small sphere inside asteroids


    its logical negation like "!" in codding
    not_in_previous_context


    in general it can be applied in any zone and thats coz its necessery to reduce coding time
    like this for exampe
    u have radiation zone with size of system, ie u want whole system to have radiation (large radius of zone)
    then u want small section to b cutted out of that radiation, so u exclude it like
    !radiation zone

    Well, i see what the exclusion zone is, just i didn't know what commands have to be written in the .ini files to work.
    I found a little tutorial how can i remove a part from the asteroids to get clear space around my station and it's works,
    In my system .ini file:
    [Zone]
    nickname = Zone_no asteroids_exclusion
    pos = x, z, y
    shape = SPHERE
    size = 5000
    property_flags = 131072
    visit = 128
    sort = 99.500000


    After, into my asteroid.ini file:
    [Exclusion Zones]
    exclusion = Zone_no asteroids_exclusion
    exclude_billboards = 1


    So it does work, but this could remove part from the asteroids only, i still don't get the solution to cut part from clouds like in badlands.
    I tried this command rows in my nebula .ini file but nothing has happened. In the Freelancer Explorer, i haven't found any solution to do that except marking exlusion zone, but there is no preferences windows to set.


    If you could tell me what i have to write in the nebula .ini file to get same result as the asteroids .ini files, i appreciate that.

    Thank you in anticipation,
    Best Regards

    i havent looked into it, didnt had time
    but i know where u should look
    there s exclusion zone in nebula clouds around Yanagi depot in sigma 13 system, look there for solution
    it also contains dynamic asteroids eaven asteroids and nebula is excluded, i think theres complete soultion for what u have asked..

    The problem has been solved, i've just figured out what i have to do with the nebula.ini to cut that damn sphere... There was a file, name is: generic_exclusion.3db. It needs to be moved into the nebula.ini referring to that system.ini where that zone_vignette_exclusion row can be found, you want to cut. It works at long last.


    Thanks anyway
    Best Regards
