Prevent enemy ship autojumping

Post by TakeTheBody » Sat, 31. May 14, 17:42

Good morning,

Just started playing again X3 AP with XRM pack.

Is there a means to prevent an enemy ship from autojumping?

I have had some fantastic battles in the border sectors fighting for the Terrans against Argon. I get a nice fat ship on the ropes anticipating loot and praise and success for our war effort as the Argon M7 explodes but then it autojumps! Multiple times this happens. These battles take awhile and are exciting, but I have nothing to show for it.

Eve has the warp destabilizers. Anything like that in game or can it be scripted to alter this?

Thanks!

Display your target ship on one of your monitors (shift-1 or shift-2). That will allow you to track which sector the ship jumps to.

Then follow it. It may jump a couple of times, but it will eventually run out of jump fuel.

Brilliant! Thank you so much for replying. Going in to test it now :)

They can run but they can't hide!
