I started to think ( which is new thing for me )

Spoiler:

What if, insted of Shivan destroyer jumping in, the Iceni arrives through the node? Bad idea? Too extreme?

[TopAce]

Spoiler:

It is destroyed during the main campaign

[Primus]

 I deserve that for not playing the FS2

I prefer the way it is now even without what TopAce said. The way it is we still have no idea what Stalker's message was about. We have no idea if it was to Bosch or to the Shivans. It's a nice cliffhanger ending

[Primus]

Okay.. I'm playtesting my mission, trying to find the remaining bugz.. And I've made myself busy... Soon I will suffer burn out

So am I wrong again?

[karajorma]

Nope. For once you're correct

Try to make a habit out of it

[Primus]

Still playtesting.. There was some interesting things in my mission.. In some is-event-true SEXPs the event that has to come true was somehow changed to current event's name..  Why am I getting the feeling that something worse is about to happen..

Well, I'll upload it tonight or tomorrow..

Actually Trillian crashed on me last week and took out the previous list.

Right now your mission is the only thing on my new Mozilla Sunbird list

Must be my lucky day

Actually it moved down to number two. Number one priority is figuring out why FS2 CTD's with this message whenever I try to play it.

Error: icons.tbl(1):
Error: Required token = [#Start], found [Icon Table file required for Ins] .

File:.\parse\parselo.cpp
Line: 478

Call stack:
------------------------------------------------------------------

I've known for a while something was wrong with the FAC1 icon.tbl but it worked and I'm lazy so I never fixed it.  And since most people are using retail to test it they probably won't have the problem (FS2_open is more sensitive to this sort of thing than retail).

Anyway I know that the problem isn't your mission Primus so I'll sort things out and get the mission tested as soon as I can.

[Primus]

Yeah, I never had that problem... And no rush, take your  time

[karajorma]

Fixed it. Missing semi colon right at the start of the icon.tbl. I have no idea why the problem would only surface now when I've been using this build to play FA missions previously but what the hell

I like the idea of the sobek needing more help but you may need more cries of help from the sobek. I completely missed it the first time and only noticed when I failed the mission.

Also, the Iceni's subsystems are still far too strong. I shot comm3 with a full load of 11 stillettos and still didn't get it below 90%!

I've had enough of this problem anyway. I'm reducing the value of the comm systems to 7.5% instead of 15% effective immediately. The changes will be in the FAC1.vp I'll release in a little bit once I've fixed the tables of that annoying missing icon.

[Primus]

Okay.. I'll make the Sope a crybaby

But I noticed that sometimes, one of the comms (the one in the back, comm3?) isn't affected by stilettos.. The other two are.. I don't understand it.. I activated cheats and bounded the comm in front and the one in below with stilettos and they were out pretty quick, but the one in back.. Nothing!

[Fergus]

Perhaps you should try to have that one taken out by the Sopedu, you would need to reorientate of stuff in mission, but that could solve the problem of not killing it.  But the problem of wasting a whole load of stilleto 2's may still remain.
