cant 'hitch a ride' with cap ships

Post by KRM398 »

Got a Rehanas with materials for my station and did some emergency repairs to get it running then docked for the ride back. It started out and half way to the gate, dropped me and went on alone. The last time I tried this I made it all the way to the gate then it dropped me after going through. Staying docked to ships we own in jump seems to be a real problem. :roll:

I noticed this capping last night, got the jump and engines offline, it repaired them enough during the boarding, and boosted off leaving me sitting in the middle of nowhere.

Which is really annoying because the last 3 ships I've capped won't jump with nearly full fuel cells (2300)

Hey fixed it...or should I say, found out how it works. We have to remember that Ego is very anul retentive sometimes (sorry) but their instructions said we could dock and ride other ships IF they had a captain and we passed our orders on to him. They did NOT say we could ride inside the Skunk doing it..wink,wink...I just had to run from Wreckviille to the shipyard in de vres, at darn hot air...a long drive all alone. But I got on board my Rehanas I had there and docked. Then walked off to talk to the captain and gave him my orders...take me to....darn hot air...then walked over and stood there, by the ships legs there is actually a handrail for us to see the ship jump, and I did, all the way to the shipyard, and it was a smooth ride too, not like the jarring we get trying to stay inside the Skunk, so now will make a special salvage vessel from a construction ship...and ride everywhere I can find salvage worth getting...or make some..will see how long it takes to pay for it. :roll:
