sigh. This should really go in the Plug-in Development forum. It's off-topic for this forum. However, I'll help you anyway. (karma++

Instead, Confed Shuttles with the STR name of Bounty Hunter jump in and are againts him. But when they are blasted by the pilot, the pilot is attacked by nearby Confeds. I want him to be good with the Confeds.
I entered the following for the Ships and Auxilary Ships:
Amount: 8
Type: Pirate Kestrel
Location: Follow Player
Aux Amount: 5
Type: Pirate Corvette
Aux Location: Follow Player
So, what's my problem? ANd what's an Auxilary Ship?? DANGIT!
ANd don't tell me that ResEdit is easier, cuz it's not!

It sounds like you have the wrong dude set. If you'll suffer through using Resedit for a brief moment, you could open it up and check what you have in the "shipdude" field of that mission. For the above, it should be 161, and the "auxshipdude" should be 159. If it is those things, and shuttlecraft are still showing up, try increasing EV's memory allocation -- it may not be a problem with your mission at all, but sometimes when EV's memory gets tight it gets confused.
BTW, if you want bounty hunter kestrels, well, there aren't any düdes in the EV Data file with Kestrels as the ships and mercenaries as the government, so you'd need to create your own düde resource to have that. Pirates aren't bounty hunters -- they're the prey.
