      wormhole instead of station

      I'm working on a new plug, and I have placed a station in the Jenner syst. It's a type 59 (RëlD 2059). However, it appears as a wormhole. (The wormhole box is not checked in Misc.) Upon landing the station picture, desc, bar, outfitters, etc. are fine. The mission to the station and mission dialogs work fine.
      I've checked everything and cannot find the problem. I'm using Mission computer on an iMac G5, OSX 10.4.11

    • It is appearing as a wormhole because you told it to appear as a wormhole. Type 59 actually is what all the wormholes in stock Nova are. The 'type' field actually refers to the spïn resource number, not the RlëD.

    • I should also make it clear that the wormhole box controls the behaviour of the spöb, which is entirely unconnected to its appearance (as defined by the Type field). As Jalisurr explained, what you've done is to create a station which happens to look like a wormhole; you could, just as easily, create a wormhole which looked like a station.

    • Oops. I goofed. Problem solved. Thank you both for your help.
