Post by **BlackRain** » Fri, 14. Nov 08, 11:54

Lucike how does the Rescue part of this script work? It just says not available and jumpdrive is also not available?

The rescue service comes later and jump drive is possible at the moment only for single ships, but I will change that.

Lucike, the script doesn't add M5 class ships to the patrol. I have some M5's in my carrier and I set up the carrier to patrol, all the M3's and M4's worked correctly but the M5's don't.

M5 is not a fighter?

OK, I'll check that.

Any word on that? and do you mean you will make the rescue service part later and it isn't made yet?

Almost couldn't find this. Is it getting any updates, or is this the final version?

Believe there has been 3 updates to it already, but on the german forum.

That should be the the post for it over there.

And yes, if you install it from there it will be in english still.

Code: Select all

23.11.2008 (version 3.alpha.02) 
The emergency service is now available. 
The struggle and restrictions of ship activates. Importantly: Guidance for struggle and ship possibilities read. 
Conversion to the final SRD Rangbezeichnungen. 
Ships of the large ship class refuel now leap energy in the military outguards and in the docks of the player.

24.11.2008 (version 3.alpha.03) 
The emergency service attacks now no more considering enemies. 
The purchase behavior of jump energy with large ships improves. 
The friend/enemy attitude is stored when starting and controlled in the enterprise. 
The firings of the safety and emergency service are logged now and are observable in the pilot overview.

25.11.2008 (version 3.alpha.04) 
The emergency service followed xenon ships into the xenon sector. Repaired. 
Errors in the refueling of large ships repaired.

Thats more of less of useing bablefish to translate it.

I hope someone reads this then. I don't speak German and would rather not post over there. I installed the latest version and after installing all the required software, I started the Security and Rescue Service. Added Waypoints, and started the Patrol. A little while later, I decided to change the waypoints, but now I see that "Start Security and Rescue Service" is greyed out. Tried adding the required software to other ships but the command is grey on them also.

It's almost like the script looked at playing time, then turned everything off after a certain amount of time. I didn;t get any messages that the pilot union was on strike or anything...

I know what ya mean about not wanting to post over there, lol. I had a simular problem tonight with a differnt one of his scripts. Then all of a sudden one of my cags stoped. Give it a day or 2 and check the lib i guess. Then again im only the guy with the candy and van so i dunno.

Post by **BlackRain** » Wed, 26. Nov 08, 14:35

I posted over there about the problem with the greyed out command for this script.

Thanks, BlackRain. When I installed the older version (from this thread) over the top of the latest version, the command became available again. So I don't know what the problem is, but it wasn't there in the older version.

Version 3.alpha.05

The command is available only on ships that already do have a pilot, and on ships that are docked at a station.

Other rules:

Recruit ........... M3, M4, M5, M8
Petty Officer ... M3, M4, M5, M8
Ensign ............ M3, M4, M5, M8
Lieutenant ..... M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, Jump Drive (single ship), Leader

My ship already has a pilot.

1. Installed the scripts and library scripts.

2. Added required upgrades to ship.

3. Started the software and added Waypoints.

4. Started Patrol -> the pilot now had a name, "Recruit (name)".

5. The command was now gray, not allowing me to use it a second time.

I'll try the latest version and see if that fixes it.

Edit: Still having the same problem. Installed the latest version, along with the latest libraries, and my ship HAS a pilot, already has Waypoints, and is on a patrol, but the command is gray, so I can't change his patrol or do anything. are you saying I can't edit the patrol unless I go find a shipyard or equipment dock? (It's an M2) - going to try that...

That wasn't it. Docked him at an Equipment Dock and the command is still greyed out.
