Slow wingman

Post by spacepirate71 » Mon, 27. Oct 08, 04:30

I have a Terran Cutlass and a Nova Raider in a wing following me for personal preotection. Both ships' engines are fully upgraded and faster than the Terran Vidar I am flying. The Cutlass follows me at its maximum speed of 173 m/s, however the Nova Raider refuses to travel any faster than 97 m/s.

If I fly the Nova myself or fly it remotely, it easily goes 190 m/s.

Am I missing something?

Latest patch, unmodified game, Argon Patriot, etc...

Um. Is it a captured ship? I've heard of Xenon ships pulling weird stunts like that, but never a Nova.

No, the ship was bought at a shipyard during the Mission involving Nav Sats and Split sectors.

Sure it's not in formation with a slower slip (even in a different sector)?

Not sure if that's still an issue in X3TC.

No, there's just the two of them. My entire fighting force.

[EDIT]Actually, you're right. I docked the Scabbard that was stranded in Aldrin, and for some reason the Nove responded by stepping on the gas.

Thanks, that helped.
