Title: set-support-ship SEXP causes probs
Post by: SF-Junky on December 27, 2006, 08:31:12 am
And here we go again... :D

Following: In one Mission I want the support ship available 10 seconds aber the GTD Yamato (Hades-Class) has arrived and I want the Yamato launch the ship. But when I start the mission in FS2 it says "Ship has no fighter bay". HÄH!?!?!?!  :confused: :confused: :confused: The Hades HAS got a fighterbay!! :hopping:
I all works perfect when I make the support ship come out from subspace, but I want it launched by the destroyer.

In a little test mission this worked without any problems and now it doesn't. :(

I've experienced exactly the same problem.

If you post your test mission (assuming it doesn't require mods) I'll take a look.

The test mission consists of nothing. there's a Hades and after 10 secons (With the has-time-elapsed SEXP) the player is able to call a support ship from the destroyer. The difference to the "real" mission is, that the destroyer jumpes in after shivan Ravana has been destroyed. And 10 secs after that you're able to call the support ship. May that cause the problems? The ship, that launches the support must be there from the beginning?

I don't see any problems in the mission I set up.  Post your mission.

Or, if it's secret and you don't want anyone to see it, PM a link to either karajorma or me.

Okay, I've fixed this in CVS, and 3.6.9 final will work properly.  For now, you should be able to ignore the message and keep playing the mission.

If I was evil, I would say you would be a perfect employee for the German Telekom. "Ignore the malfunction and go on". :lol: :D

Thanks for the help. :)

No. :D

In German you say "Keine Ursache" or "Kein Problem" or something like that. "Du bist willkommen" doesn't really exist in German. But English is the better language, anyway, in my opinion.  ;-)

maybe you have to use the 'ship-arrived-delay'or whatever on the hades to get it to work. I'm far from being an expert, but does anyone know i you can even launch support ships??? from what i know, the fighter bay of an orion isn't even big enough to launch fighters really!!!

You can. In my FOW campiang I made the Fury launch a support ship in mission 11R. No problems there.
