Hi
Rookie here.
Like players are stronger with time, I tried to also reinforce xenons with time, using like it was adviced to me, here, the start time pararm. However it failed.
Below how I scripted it. Did I made a mistake or is it time start that dont works ? The job currently works but start immediatly when game is launch. I know a other solution exist with md, but I m a bit relunctant to use it. Thanks

Re: Job delay
Did you test by starting a new game? I haven't used it and don't know for sure if it works (although Egosoft is using it in a few spots) but if it does work the start time will be from game start.

Re: Job delay
Yes I tested many time with fresh new games with same results each time.

Re: Job delay
Hi, in line 8 there's a typo. Should problably be destroyer, not destoyer. Hope that helps. First post

Re: Job delay
Thank and welcome. Mistyping is usual with me and caused many trouble. However I have many other jobs implementing carriers or battleships without syntax problem and all end in the same way. Job works but start immediatly ignoring delay.
I sometime doubt time delay really works.

Re: Job delay
You can always do it manually by starting it deactivated and activating with a simple MD script.
