    • Reset Set and Launch Trap Mission (Pirate Thread) Plug-in

      Hi,

      I'm a relatively new EV NOVA fan, but I'm playing on 1.0.6 on Windows. I'm playing the Pirate thread right now and am stuck in an inconsistent state for the "Set and Launch Trap" mission. (http://www.ev-nova.n...e.html#Pirate10) I haven't successfully completed the mission, though I've tried once. Since then, I've landed, so I can't just reload. The problem is that Koria shows up with the red you-should-go-here tick on the galaxy map, but when I go there (and go in the Bar, or any other place) nothing happens.

      I asked the guys in #nova on Ambrosia's IRC server, and they suggested that I come here and beg and plead for someone to write a plug in that would flip the right bits.

      grovel

      Thanks for any help,

      William

      You have to board the ship with a special subtitle (Howling Wolf, Hell-Hound, Old Grey Fox, Black Dragon, Footpad, Silent Footfall, Ball and Chain, Raven Stone, Lone Horseman, or Old Veteran) before traveling to Rebel II. According to your pilotlog, you haven't boarded it yet.

      Right, so that's the thing: the battle no longer appears in the Aral system. Hence, there's no ship to board!
