Remind me how to 'Auto' follow guidance ??

Post by Poacher886 »

Driving me nuts this one.

I have a yellow guidance course plotted to a Wharf, but i guess it could be a mission course or what ever...

I cant for the life of me find a way to Auto follow the path either with myself at the Helm or a AI Pilot...##

Ive tried using the obvious (Auto pilot) and (Auto guidance) , nether do anything, tried right clicking on My ship and no option exists, tried talking to my pilot and again no option, even when i ask to proceed with current order??

Some help required, thanks..

The only auto guidance I'm aware of for those mission arrows is to tell your ship to fly to or dock at the destination once it's revealed. You can't tell your ship to just 'follow the yellow brick road' -- er 'line'. :wink:
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

X4 is a journey, not a destination. Have fun on your travels.

Shift+A to use auto-pilot. Auto-pilot can't dock. Only works when you pilot the ship. NPCs cannot follow yellow line, and need to be directed manually.

To start guidance to an object, rightclick --> "Start Guidance".

To disable, right click the yellow line on the map.

If it is a mission, go to mission manager, set to inactive.

While mission guidance is active usually you have text in the bottom left telling what it wants.
