Title: skip a bugged mission with a cheat?
Post by: badpenguin on January 01, 2016, 06:44:28 am
I got a problem with a derelict mission, i got some ghost ships and i'm unable to complete a mission.
Is there a way to cheat to skip that bugged mission? :)

You'll need to look up the exact filenames of the missions, .fs2 files packed into the Derelict VP.

Then go to the mainhall and type skipmemymissionyo. Enter the name of the .fs2 file you want to skip to.

Beware: may nuke your pilot file.

Addendum to beware:  If you use the cheat, then Shift-Esc out of the game during the mission you skipped to, it will nuke the campaign save file (in the fs2/data/players/ folder).

Or you could just fail the mission 5 times and it should give you the option to skip.

Fail by dying that is, taking Tempests and firing them into something at point blank so you get caught in the blast is one way of doing that quickly.

Sound the best :) Thanks
