X3TC Goner Plot
I'm at the stage where I'm asked to deliver 3 TS to the Goners in EoL, but when I get them there, nobody seems interested. Who do I give them to. Do I have to be flying one of them?

HE will also need to check his messages as they will ask him which ones he wants to give up. EDIT: I spent 30 minutes with my ships in said station before i realized my messages were flashing.Alan Phipps wrote:You need to tell them to dock at the station indicated by the Mission Guidance yellow chevrons (normally SPP M Alpha). You should not be in any of them.

When the plot starts one of the stations in Elysium of Light is selected for the mission - this station is flagged as invincible, and not set as vulnerable until the end of the plot.
It is this station you need to deliver the ships to - if it isn't there then some script/mod or other nefarious means have removed it from your game...

Make sure that you have mission guidance turned on. Then as Alan Phipps states you should get yellow pointer arrows to the correct station., and you order the TS to land there.
If it doesn't work, give it a kick. If that doesn't fix it hit it with a hammer. If it still doesn't work, USE A BIGGER HAMMER!!!

A less immersion breaking solution: Dock one ship at one of the stations. If they don't ask about it, it's probably the other station.

I have always assumed so, otherwise there would be little point in making it so a plot critical station couldn't be accidentally destroyed, only to have GoD zap it out of existence mid plot, thus breaking it...Alan Phipps wrote:Hmmm, interesting theological question follows:- Is a temporarily invincible/invulnerable plot station also made GoD-proof?

I believe yes if the plot has started. And no before and after.Alan Phipps wrote:Hmmm, interesting theological question follows:- Is a temporarily invincible/invulnerable plot station also made GoD-proof?

Now there's a point! Only 2 stations? there's usually an SPP in that sector also, as you state. But I can't see GoD destroying that as most npc SPPs make a profit.

In most instances there is a back up plan whether it's creating a station or looking further afield.Alan Phipps wrote:Yes it is logical and an obvious thing to code for permanent plot stations - but did the coder also remember when setting up temporary plot stations selected from already-present normal ones? See lexraider's last post above.
In the Goner plot this isn't so... However, as the only requirement for it is player age is a minimum of 60s, the chances of GoD removing all four of the stations that start in Elysium of Light during the first 60s of a new game before the station is set as invincible is fairly remote... Despite him moving in mysterious ways...
