X3TC No 'Board all marines' command??? RESOLVED THANKS.

Post by The Iron Duke » Thu, 31. Jul 14, 09:45

I've equipped a Springblossom with all relevant upgrades i.e. Special Command Software Mk1, Bioscanner, fight commands pre-installed and 5 marines.
However, when attempting space walk boarding, there is no 'Launch all marines; command in the Special commands menu??
It wasn't present in the original Scabbard / Viidar boarding excercise either.
Am I missing something.
Ok! I know I'm playing 1.1 and would love to upgrade to 2.5, (don't get on with the latter upgrades) but that option, graded upgrades, doesn't seem to be available anymore.

The "Launch: All Marines" command is available from the Additional Commands section, not from the "Special" commands.

Sorry, I meant Additional Commands section. Boarding command not shown in either menu?

Personally, I think you’re a bit nuts to be using 1.1 but I can appreciate your dilemma :)

I've had a quick look at the web address for the various mirrors of the listed TC patches on this site (mostly 3.1-related) and they are similar with the following general format:

"http://www.egosoft.com/download/x3tc/pa ... ?download=" + three numbers. Such as 562 for the v3.1.1 > v3.2 patch.

There are various gaps in the sequence of numbers used by TC patches and they often go to working pages but they correspond to other stuff like art and the TC XTM. Working backwards from the lowest number for listed TC patches (on the assumption that Egosoft worked forwards as newer patches were released) as far as 450, I ended up finding a few mirrors to older patches for you. Plus a bunch of other stuff like demos and bonus packs.

Whilst they may not all give downloads, I have checked 2.5 (in bold below) and that does.

Sparky Sparkycorp. I am very appreciative for your input. Do you consider the 'bug' in the boarding command is down to being too early a version?
It wasn't present when I originally played, at least I don't think so, maybe I upgraded without realizing. It was some time ago.

You're most welcome - happy to help :)

Glad it is fixed in 2.5 for you. Although I imagined it could be one of the bugs they fixed later, I had no idea if this one was (not played TC since AP came out)! hehe
