Title: Solo play annoyance, help needed
Post by: Spartan159 on November 13, 2008, 06:18:26 pm
Decided to fire up OP and do some solo fooling around, and I run into a patrol mission I can not for the life of me remember how to win.  Involves an "abandoned" space dock you are supposed to fly into and "regenerate".  Usually there is an opponent, although I have also played with no enemy.  Umm, I'm missing something obvious here, can anyone help?

It sounds vaguely familiar...I don't think the mission shows up all that often, but if I remember correctly, I couldn't find any way to regenerate of enter the drydock either.
As long as this is a generic mission, you can probably leave by esc-forfeiting or flying off the map, without winning any prestige or losing anything. Sorry that doesn't answer your question, I would also like to know how the designers intended the mission to be played out.

Its bugged, it never worked as intended.  If you destroy the enemy ship you get a partial victory, but you have to fly off the map to get it.

I was afraid of that. I had tried many things including going to condition green and tractoring, which it won't let you do, can't board it <shrug> I guess I need to find out which mission it is and just replace it with something else.  Many thanks for the replies.  Currently trying to figure out why the shipyard will not make DNLs but will build DNs.  uhh?  I can see I need to do a lot of reading and tweaking.

I believe most DNL's are built later than the original DN's, probably along the same years as DNH's and DNM's.

Not sure for SFC but in SFB a DNL came out after the DN's.  It was arround the same time as the DNH's and DNM's.  Basicly a war dreadnought design.

Took a look at the shiplist, as it happens this one had DNL's out in year 7, DN's in year 12. Still have not seen DNL's. DNL's do have Special role: R tagged tho...  gonna drop that and see what happens
