New Standalone Mission. Imperial Mercenary Guild

Post by LV »

This script pack has no command slots or files that will affect any other script you have installed :)
Assassination 1.2 19/9/04



-------------------------------------------------

UPDATE

Timings : Fixed

Missions now slightly more difficult :)


________________________________________-





manual install


the files in the "t" folder into your x2 "t" folder :)

the files in the "scripts" folder into your x2 scripts folder





once installed the script will be called at a random time interval

if you don't want to accept the mission then just ignore it but you will lose experience points :)

all other details will be given in mission
'

Overview.


You will be contacted and offered the chance to work for The Empire killing thier assassination targets. (No race rank is lost)

You will be contacted with the co-ordinates of the target ship and you will have ten minutes to decide if your accepting it or not.

With each kill you get paid and also gain experience (you must kill the ship!)

as your level grows the target strength grows also together with the payout.


This missions is rated "Extreme Combat" even though you will only have one target for early stages.

Conditions are that the pirate anarchy port must be in your game (It's my base of operations ;) and you will have fly there to start the missions off young padwans :)


Enjoy and feedback.

Must you, guys, mix Star Wars, Star Trek, Babylon 5 and other God knows how many movie worlds with an already well defined completely diferent universe. :evil:

Reading this post I actually apreciated the ideea of gettinf more assassination missions, but I got to the part where you work for the Empire ??? :evil: :evil: Oh, please, leave me alone with that sh*t :roll:

Change the "Empire" :roll: to <input race name> Secret Service or Mercenary Guild or something else, but PLEASE don't ruin the game experience by adding sh*t from movies and TV shows. PLEASE !!!!

Please point me to the quote from "official X2 literature" that says that no group exists who call themselves "The Empire".

Until I've seen that quote I'll continue serving The Empire, a group of pirates based in Loomankstrats Legacy (probably spelled that wrong :P)

there is a pirate anarchy port already in the game. it has no shipyard capabilites. look in a sector named loomanckstrat's legacy.
btw. your link is not working, just brings up a 404 page.

greetings freggel

edit: corrected typos in sector name.

Well, you're the one who said you work for the Empire :roll: and the "start the missions off young padwans " doesn't exactley help clear the confusion. So if you're not working for the Empire :roll: , who do you work for ? The Republic :roll: or you just find the missions in the trash can ?

LV, installed the script. When i get the verbal new mission incoming message and go to read it, all that appears is 'READTEXT5050-775'. I have your Deathmatch script installed also, could this be causing a problem?

I can feel the needlessness welling deep within this one,

either way I find Baked Beans on Toast works a treat, should be sorted by Suppa time.

Maybe it's just me...but the frequency of the missions is way too high. They seem to occur so fast as to be intrusive to the overall game play.

The basicl concept (and execution) is fine. I guess I'll just tinker with the timing until I get something that works for me.

The time should be between 30 mins and 1hr 30 mins for the mission to be called, during testing i had some strange returns here where the timer codes i used simply did as they pleased

How long are they coming for you?

Updated

The init script was timer based and i think this causes problems kicking up other scripts but i'm not 100% yet

Timers have been removed and thanks to some feedback the ability to knock out a few m2's without much trouble has been sorted
