From what I can tell that version isn't working for me.

I assume this doesn't work with AP?

If it does, I'm doing something wrong, because none of the options are showing up

It runs just fine in my game of AP.

Make sure you install the scripts into x3 terran conflict/addon/scripts, rather than just x3 terran conflict/scripts.

Also, you have to enable the script editor in-game.
Admitting you have a problem is the first step in figuring out how to make it worse.

The plugin manager should be able to install to AP. Does your plugin manager recognize your AP installation and is the program set to manage the AP directory rather than the TC one?

Or yeah, you can just install the scripts manually and not worry about the plugin manager business.

It's running the AP dir for plugins

Everything else I've installed works, just not this for some reason... :cry:


[update] Manual installation worked :D

I found out this (and other mods by the same author) only works when you install it to the Addon folder AND the root folder. In other words, it needs to be installed to Terran Conflict AND Albion Prelude. I have no idea why, but it's the same with all his scripts. Install to both or it doesn't work in AP.

Sorry, but this simply can't be true. First of all you should distinguish between scripts and mods. It's important as X3TC and X3AP share some files and folders. However scripts don't belong to that category. Most of Lucike's stuff are scripts including the EST. X3TC and X3AP have both a seperate scripts and t folder. Scripts and t-files installed to X3TC won't have any effect on X3AP and vice versa.

I'm having problems using EST. When I select a ship and go to the trade menu, the option shows up but it's greyed out and I can't select it. The hotkeys for the mod e.g. to show an overview etc. show up in the control options so I think it has installed fine, but I can't get it to work.

I have tried cheating just to test different things and given myself all the possible equipment but nothing stops it from being greyed out. One strange thing I have found is that when I inspect the freight of a trader, it will show that it has navigational software but as far as trading goes, it will only show Trade Command Software mk2 and mk3. I have tried cheating to remove and add mk1 to see if that makes any difference but it doesn't.

Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?

Some ships have Trade Command Software Mk1 built in. That is why you might not see it in cargo.

Are your EST ships docked when you start them? They must be docked, supposedly "so that they can hire a pilot". (Although I suspect that they may need to be docked even if you transfer a pilot.)

Thanks so much for the help! I had tried reinstalling the game so many times, trying different combinations of mods and everything... can't believe I didn't try docking it first. :oops:

Here is a small script that I use for exactly that job. It instantly trains new UT, EST, and Prospector pilots. It does not fully train them, but it trains them far enough that they can use a jump drive.

This is developer-quality only. It has no user interface, so either run it from the Script Editor or use the included patch (see below). If you can install it and run it, then you can probably make it do what you need. If nothing else, it is well-documented. :)

I included a "patch" file that automatically trains Pilot Union pilots (EST, Prospector, etc.). I did not make a patch for Universal Traders but it would be fairly easy to do after you look at the Pilot Union patch. If you use the included patch for Pilot Union, then BACKUP THE ORIGINAL FILE BEFORE YOU OVERWRITE IT.

TrainPilot v1.06

(Please do not complain to Lucike if this does not work as you expect it to work!)

**Merged with EST thread as per S&M posting rules**

A link to Lucikes website, where you find working download links for his scripts, is posted a few posts ago.
