Title: Cheats no longer stick ?
Post by: Jeryko on March 29, 2005, 11:00:24 am: I've recently re-installed FS2 and SCP to go through the main campaign looking at all the neat things that have been changed/updated.

I don't want to have to worry about running out of missles, so I used the trick of going to a tech room mission and activating the weapon cheat there, then returning to the main campaign and having it stick.

First mission is fine, weapon stay and no loss, but after that mission, it seems to reset.

Is this a bug or a feature? If it is a feature, any way to turn it off, I don't want to have to goto the tech room after each mission.

Thanks

My piloting skills are not in question here, by the way, and I found that comment to be rather rude.

I just would like a way to progress through the main campaign, not having to worry about my guns. That's all.

It's already in there. Just use the console to disable AI shooting/targeting the player (I forget which it is, exactly)
