Sivodsi Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Fun game, a couple of frustrations though. I'm pretty sure that this is not new, but I couldn't see anything. Sent a destroyer around to explore the dark areas, and the darned things get locked. Can't move them anywhere. Is this supposed to simulate shipwrecks? Also, I'm having difficulty loading onto transports when not at port. Is there any guide for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3rull Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 This is just sad. 1 - rich's thread about ships getting locked down is RIGHT BELOW YOUR POST. I will NOT believe you could not find it. 2 - The transport "HOW TO" sticky is right above your thread. I will not believe you could not find it either.

Sivodsi Posted November 10, 2009 Author Share Posted November 10, 2009 so sorry for saddening 1. there is no titled thread about locked ships, and the searches I did reveals nothing (I've never had much luck with search in the new forum) 2. the "how to" only covers getting units off, not loading on. (and I've just downloaded the new version, which seems to have improved behavior, I'll let you know if there are any new problems) 3. Probably should not have been drinking before posting. Oh well.

N3rull Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I added a post about loading ships. I can expect myself to make another MSPaint abuse about it when I'm back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you using the latest version of the game? I ask because this was a problem in earlier versions, but I thought this was fixed in later versions. (Maybe it's just less common in later versions.) The current version of the demo is 0.97.10701. Let me know if you're using that version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John DiFool the 2nd Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 so sorry for saddening 1. there is no titled thread about locked ships, and the searches I did reveals nothing (I've never had much luck with search in the new forum). He had the vague title, "This just happened twice," which could be about anything (tho does mouseover work for you?). Not your fault if someone else isn't specific with their topic. In any event I've had this happen to me several times, always when I've put a ship (usually a DD) on a course into the shroud to do some exploring.

Brit Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I added some more code to try to avoid this problem in the next update. Let me know after the next update if this is still happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
