LV what kind of race is this? i entered a race from DMA sector to Great Reef, was in the lead and just when i was aproaching the HQ(finish line) my ship SUDDENLY BLEW UP!!!

It happened 3 times allready. What is this?? Same thing goes for the Spacesuit championship

I enter my spacesuit and seconds after mines start appearing blowing me up

Heloooo! LV! please respond. Im having a problem with DM races and spacesuit races!! mines appear and blow me up!!! PLEASE CHECK THIS THREAD!

i would suggest you do not go on the harder levels of races without a ship than can detect mines or has enough shields

if there are mines in the easy and medium levels there is a bug

Spacesuit Race - Easy - I enter my spacesuit - 3,2,1 BOOM mines everywhere and i blow up(every single time, even on easy)

DM Race - Easy - Aproaching finish line with an M5 - BOOM - sudenly my ship blows up in proximity of the HQ - every single time -

Ok, new install, few things ive noticed.

I renamed the init.a.a.a.emp.xml to just a.a.a.amp.xml and the double talk to participate in a DMA stoped and is only asks once.

Also the wares stays the same and doesnt flash back to ZA_blah.blah.blah

Problem i have had in the past and still do is i wont get the guy flying in to ask me if i want to do something unless i do a command like, deply satilites via m.a.r.s. As soon as i hit that hotkey, i get the subtitle going HEY YOU! (well that the arena dude is comeing).

As for the spacesuit thing. I had that happen a few times, i figured i was just in the wrong spot, so i moved the ship a bit, ejected, and did the course fine.

I had more but i saw a shiney thing and forgot what i was gonna toss up, meh.

1.4 and hopefully last beta

I've added a command to the DMA interface to call DMA's when not in the DMA sector and it will also show ""Remove DMA Offer Block if the DMA block mission global is active, this can be used to reset for those currently not getting offers but do now call more than 1 DMA at a time!

Various other tweaks, I'll build in the feedback from the other posts above soon

To Mr bounty - Since this is free and has taken the lad a crap load of time, I would suggest you either chill out and be a little more polite to the creator or simply uninstall it and bugger off. Get some manners.

Good Job LV, you and the other lads must be nuts but im glad you are for the time you put in!

bounty_hunter66 · Post by **bounty_hunter66** » Sat, 3. Jan 09, 15:10

Well excuse me Mr Trick! You probably have no problems with the script for you it works fine. reason why i was angry was because i appreciate the work he has done for this verry nice script, if i didnt like it so much i would have uninstalled it the moment i saw a bug, but i didnt. and the second reason is that no one responded for quite some time and i triple posted(its my fault there). but i really think hes done a great job

But you also must remember it is a Holiday time period for many and rl events take top importance to scripting. Sometimes I have waited many days for a responce and really don't mind at all, but thats me. LV is a great community scripter and all of must sometimes just sit back and be patient. Bug's are a pain but so is life and we just deal with it. Keep up the good work LV.

rejoice (touch wood)

I'm happy to take this out of beta now (with the exception of race feedback) and this is definitely the last BETA

I've added 2 more upgrades

Self Repairing Hull Technology ported from TR (linked thread)

SRHT is now available as a prize

Also Sat deployment Upgrade.
Allows you to deploy a sat (if in cargo bay) to any sector, the time to build is longer the further away the sector, same sector deployment is immiediate

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

Please tell me there are no more bugs peeps as this plugin now contains Imperial Laboratories, some of you may have stumbled on the sector in the last beta, this time the death star is fully operational and ready

I checked there are a few mines deployed around the station in all levels, i'll remove some of them on easy,

Most of the time i'm lucky and i miss them, looks like you didn't (hence why one of the DMA prizes in the arena is hotkeys, one of which is a Mine Detector

Thrandisher · Post by **Thrandisher** » Wed, 7. Jan 09, 22:39

Could have sworn i posted here. Probyl posted on some other script by mistake, eep.

X-Treme menu is bugged. There is no Go back. So once you go there to see what you can buy, if there is nothing there, your stuck.

RHT works fine. Used it on a M1 with a perfect hull and a bunch of broken fighters, they were fixed, i lost kits, there was much rejoice.

Call for match when you want is perfect. Works every time now when you want it

In earlyer versions i could stop the plugin and restart it and still keep my rateing. I tried that last night to reset due to something and i lost my Hotkey winnings. Dont remember it doing that before. Not sure if i lost rank or not since i had a sucky rank score of like 100 or so.

good spot, will sort

i've had to remove many of the DMA globals to stop issues but i'll make sure the dma rank remains, iirc i set it back to 0 on plugin off so players who had null problems with it sorted them this way as i couldn't find the issue

That said once this is out of beta why would you want to diable to plugin

Ya, pretty much

I disabled it to see about that EMP problem im haveing to see if it messed up the menu and umm, time wise mentioned in IL.

Remote Guided Warheads. They seem to drop alot and since sell for about 300k. I useally get 10-20 of them per match. With how 1.4 patch has changed how mission reward payouts are right now, Im making a killing from doing a fast 3 fight and selling em off.

btw, you can get otu of the buggy xtreme menu, jsut takes a bit of patience and lots of exscape keying

Ill probly be concentrateing on this today so if i run into anything else, ill toss it up.

LV · Post by LV » Thu, 8. Jan 09, 01:08

I'll have the ref collect the RGW's if there are too many

have you updated emp? i put another build up a couple of days ago which hopefully fixes the ZA_ issue

Thrandisher · Post by **Thrandisher** » Thu, 8. Jan 09, 01:22

Ya, i did the other day, i am haveing a problem with it tho. Im still getting the Za issue and JDK is goign from 0 in stock to 52 in stock. I might have updated the wrong way tho. I just renamed it the file to 07* because thats where i had it before (even tho im up to cab 19 right now with PM).

Ill double check the emp thread real fast to see if i missed anything, it was one of those updates without the req amount of coffee and nicotene in my system.

Thrandisher · Post by **Thrandisher** » Thu, 8. Jan 09, 19:32

1 small bug that apeared in this version.

"Subspace cloak unavailable"

I get that on my subtitle bar apearing when a ship named "LV" apears and trys to hide.

Last few times i saw that ship in, that would be spamed over and over and id still keep him in target and kill him.
