Travel restrictions builder ship - Improvement coming.

Post by Virtualaughing »

Hi
Holy Vision is off limit as the default travel rule.
Full 5 star Heracles Vanguard.
Cardinal Redress sector.
Find Build Tasks.
First hing it does to fly to Holy Vision.

Sector travel blacklist set to default. Holy Vision off limit. Rest of the ships doing just fine.
X to X3 is MENU SUPERIOR!

Just a thought, but just in case building counts as that ship's trade, does setting a trading restriction for that sector solve the issue for it?

How can it "trade" if it can not go there? Anyway. Since then I have not seen it leave Cardinal-Lasting space

Well, you gave it an impossible task. Holy Vision is the only route to Cardinal's Redress. Either the captain disobeys orders by flying through Holy Vision, or he disobeys orders by not flying through Holy Vision. :P

Pretty sure a direct order will cause the blacklist to be ignored. The question then becomes, what constitutes a direct order?

Travel blacklist only determines how to get from A to B, not if tasks in A or be are allowed, for that you will need activity blacklists or trade restrictions.

Furthermore, the travel blacklist is only applied if there is at least one allowed path to the destination.

Find build task has no place just arbitary.
Cardinal Redress ship got an order find build task. Holy vision is forbidden why you say it has to fly trough of it?

Find build task is no different than an autotrader finding buyers or sellers. So as TheDeliveryMan said above, you'd need to also institute an activity blacklist to keep it from going to a forbidden sector for 'trade' opportunities. It's possible your builder saw a build task in Holy Vision and decided to take it.

Looks like we missed implementing blacklists for the builder ship behavior. Fixed. Thanks for mentioning it here.

Would it be possible to overrite that all ships assigned to trade assignment, be treated as civilian ships?
There is a peculiar case that if I assign Axuilary Ships or Tides of Avarice Barbarossa as station traders, they ignore civilian sector blacklist and die constantly.
I don't want to make combat ship blacklist for those peculiar cases.
