How do you make an escort list in FRED1? I need it in a mission of mine. Also, what is the maximum amount of ships you can add to an escort list? I have six cruisers and a destroyer to protect, and four cruisers and a destroyer that attacks the ships you must escort. It would be nice to have all ships on the list, but I'm guessing that won't happen.

I always thought the max was four or five

Don't know about FS1 but FS2 doesn't have a limit of escort ships but the max that will show on the list at one time is 3.
No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

As usual, when I can't find something, it is right under my nose. :lol: I managed to create an escort list. Also, for anyone who is interested, the max amount of ships that will appear on an escort list in FS1 is three. Thanks everyone!

FS2_Open allows you 5. :)

I would use FSO, but I'm just too lazy :o  and busy to download it.

I thought that the default was still 3 escort ships. Its the hud_gauges (included in the MVPs) that let you have 5 or however many escort ships you want.
