    • Problem with the InvinciNought in RotUE.


      When I try this mission of defeating this ship, it always ends up disappearing from my screen. I can still see it flashing on my radar thing when I choose it, but it's nowhere to be found and I can't finish the mission...

      ?

    • Wow. That's weird. I've played RotUE and that never happened.
      Maybe the file is corrupted or something. You should write UE Patriot, he made it.

      ------------------

    • Same here, Dror. I still did it, though. Try a few times, I don't know. I can't remember how I managed it.

    • One solution to these kinds of problems, I've found with my own problems at least, is to take the plug you're using out and put it back in. You may need to mess with the different plug-ins in your folder to get things to work all right. If you have a lot of plug-ins in your folder it can end up with a conflict.

    • That happened to Us once.The trick is(We think)to kill it really fast,and keep it in ther center of the screen.We beleive it to be some kind of problem with the InvinciNaught's blowup time feild.

      No, the Death Delay is fine (although 60 is a little low). It's the fact the maker never set the Mass of the ship, so it's recoil from fire is infinite. i.e. when you hit an Azdara with a rocket, it goes back a lot, and a Crescent Warship hardly any. But a ship with 0 Mass just goes flying off the screen.

    • I had the same sort of problem with RotUE, but not quite. I had pummelled it pretty good with my UE Dreadnought, but then it suddenly disappeared to the extreme left of the screen so that barely any of it other than the top and bottom target angles were showing. So I chased it, but the InvinciNought moved at the same speed as me, in the exact same place, no matter how much I went left. So then I just abandoned the plug.

      (edit)And another problem I had, was with Hunter Missiles; if, say, I bought ten missiles, took off, and use two of them on a Helian, landed and bought two more, when I took off from said planet, I still had eight missiles.(/edit)

      Exactly. That's exactly how it is for me.

      Yup...

    • Dror, I'm sending you my fix now (not positive it'll work, but fairly confident).

      It says it'll take an hour. 😉

    • Damn, computer crashed. It's 11 PM over here, so I'll send it tomorrow afternoon (American morning). I'll also just make it an add-on edit, like the "Weaker Dreadnought" is, so it's NOT 8 MB. 🙂

    • Ah, thank you! I hope it will work. You're in England I see, so your afternoon is my afternoon as well, I'm in Israel. 🙂

      ------------------

    • Okay, I've sent you the email (which will hopefully work). It might be a little confusing; to explain, I mostly use the email address heavyrabbit@aol.com, and I mostly go by Esponer.

    • Hey Silver Dragon, do you think that I could possibly get a copy of that fixer plug-in? my e-mail adress is jhundert@istar.ca
      thanks alot

    • Done, and emailed Dror again, this time remembering the attachment. 😉

    • Wouldn't this be easier if Esponer could talk to the developer and get permission t post the fix?

      PS: I'm working on a little competition to ROTUE, although it's a long way off existing. Still, Missionary is going to be good. <grins>
