Ok for the discussion closed, I don't care, but about that happening to me... believe me, I've got much worse in real life than a hacked forum. much worse.

This much the same as the red-alert counter part allows you to end a mission without
a warp out. Not yet tested, but i think it should work, i have spent over 3 hours
trying to implement it in FRED2, which absolutly sucks, its like nearly impossible
to use, once you have a degree in fred usage, trying to code in its like trying to
walk up mt everest butt nacked. So i given up on FRED2, can a mission designer please
test this flag out, ue a red-alert flag in FRED2 then replace that with term-mission
via notepad or the likes. If it works great,if not tell me what happens, this update
is still very much a W.I.P.


Umm, excellent work with all the changes to the source code. But...but...I'm sure that if you just set a red-alert sexp to a goal or time, the mission ends without a warpout anyway. The only reason that missions end with a red-alert warpout is that they're sexped as:

when > has departed delay (or is-key-pressed Alt-J) > Alpha 1 > 0 > red-alert.

So really you don't need this.

the idea is to get out of the mission w/o the jump, but still get a debriefing :)
getting to the hangar rather than jumping away.

Yes, that's good (if can be applied)

THAT I want. Something similar to X-wing vs. TIE fighter, where if you are a certain distance from your command ship's fighterbay, you can hit Alt-J and the AI will take over your ship and fly you into the hangar. Command ship status could be conferred to any ship with a fighterbay in FRED with a checkbox.

anarchy would equate to a standstill in terms of scientific progression, which is never good. ;)

Dude... he hacked us just to break our system... nice guy? :(

As much as I want to let him back - I've been just about the only admin who really, really wanted to - it just doesn't make any sense. He hacked us; we banned him; then we let him back in. Then he hacked us again; so when we told him we were going to ban him, he broke into the admin control panel and tried to de-admin us. (Continually.) So then we locked him out. It's like a pattern...

To most people, letting him in isn't "another chance" (it wouldn't be a second chance anyway, it'd be more like a third or fourth); it'd be "stupidity". I'm sorry, we did try. :(

Okay, now that does sound cool. I agree that it's stupid to have to jump out when your Command ship is in the area.

Thats just the problem I think, most people don't hear the full story - only what we say has happened or what he said has happened to him. Why should the entire series of events be broadcast to everyone making more trouble? It's much better to keep things quiet between those concerned - unfortunately this kind of thing we have now crops up if that happens. People not knowing the full story make the wrong assumption about one or more parties and it causes yet more problems.

Still, there's one lesson for everyone now that the info is on display - the rules we have can be bent in places but there are limits to how much we can afford to tolorate.
