UTs, Passenger Shuttles, and PHQ

Post by MortalDanger » Wed, 3. Nov 10, 23:02

Five of my UTs are currently locked up in a holding pattern around my PHQ because the docks are full. These are the problems:

1) My UTs want to sell ME Meatsteak Cahoonas, which they bought with my money. Where is the logic in that? I can't seem to dissuade them from wanting to do this.

2) There are 6 Passenger shuttles in a holding pattern also around my HQ waiting for a spot. So, if I make one my ships undock in order to get that stubborn UT in there, a passenger shuttle jumps in and won't leave.

What exactly are they doing there? Why won't they leave? And how can I prevent/end this nonsense?

Thank ye.

1) set trade with other races to no.

2) set the races to foe.

Right well my UT problem seems to have fixed itself. The shuttle problem...no. I did set trade to other races to no, but those 3 shuttles won't undock.

Did you try restarting the trade command?

Check S&M for a script to force NPC undocking. There's also a hotkey kill to eliminate those waiting. *whistle*

I think I had this problem - have you stocked/stored your HQ with the goods? If so, set the price right down. Those three trapped UTs should exit then. I also set trade with other races to no and then they were out and haven't tried selling me those weapons again!!!
