WTF is up with the Kings Gmabit mission- the one where you are blockading the Gamma Draconis node against the NTF.  I've played it 15 times in the last 2 days on Medium and havn't been able to win.  Every beam the destroyer and Mjolnir that are supposed to be supporting me misses- they just fly wide and never do anything.  I can't kill any of the ships that come trhough because all my squadies get blown up almost soon as they warp in.  So in sheer frustration I set it down to very easy, just to get past the mission, and at the end it tells me "engine failure. cannot warp out." WTF is going on?

The warpout failure bug has been fixed, get the latest build from the Latest Builds forum in the SCP forum.

I'm using 3.6... and there are no recent builds in the recent builds forum.  None that I see are newer than 3.6 anyway.

maybe you should go back to flight school......

just kidding, i don't know what the problem is, i didn't have any problems with it.  So maybe i am just a lucky person.

I've had this problem sometimes too. Calling in a support ship at the end of the mission and rearming does usually fix it.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

:doubt: 6/15/2004 build
-C

 
Is that build an improvement over the 6/07 build?

And that build will also solve your problems, mrfun.

Since it is dated later, unless they simply went around ripping pieces of code out, it ought to be, right?

And note, Bobboau's features are NOT in other's builds yet.
