-- Help with Capture type missions... (http://volitionwatch.papageorgefamily/vwbb/showthread.php?threadid=8349)

Help with Capture type missions...

I've been experimenting with the FRED for awhile, however, I could get the Elliseum (spelling?) to dock with a disabled Dragon (already tried the events... didn't help) I want to set it up so that after the Dragon is disabled, the Ellies... whatever... would come and fetch it, and warp back out. Can't seem to emulate that.

set the initial orders for the Ellis ot dock with your dragon, then waypoints to whatever jump spot and then warp.

Make sure you set them in the right value, highest numbers come first. Also make sure you give it a proper arrival cue.

That's the thing, though... I can't get the Ellis to have it's initial orders to dock with the dragon... and I've already set it so that the event would change the dragon's side from hostile to unknown.

If there's a way to set a ship to turn it from hostile into cargo, or something... it might work.

you can't use an elysium to dock with fighters. Use the Hygia instead.

What's a Hygia? (I'm sorry, I don't have FS2)

Aha. In FS1 you`d use a centaur instead (the Hygeia is the FS2 supply ship)

Ok, thanks. I got it working already.

The Elysium can dock with fighters in the SCP version.

Still play FS1? Check out my upcoming campaign, [url=http://www.geocities.com/ipw47/campaign.html]Fortunes of War[/url].
Play FS2 instead? Check out my finished minicampaign, [url=http://www.geocities.com/ipw47/dem.html]Deus Ex Machina[/url]. :D

Except, of course, that sfried doesn't have any version of FS2 at all. I suppose we ought to encourage him to rectify that little problem via HOTU.
