Ancient Starship
Hi All,
I've been doing some simple scenario editing, where i have docked two DGIV to a Vespucci D .. All looks lovely & all the NAV & XPNDR frequencies are working fine & I can flit from dock to dock no problem.
The trouble is of course, the DGIV, like the XR2, XR5 etc, supports a LIVING crew.
I like to have my DGIV's cold & dark when docked, i.e... you have to go through the complete start up process.
Problem A ... if i leave my DGIVs for too long, when i 'select ship' to one of them, it reports that my pilot is DEAD because of cold & lack of oxygen. - Fair enough.
So i edit the Scenario to say NO Pilot or crew present. Of course when i then select the DGIV to start it up ... i can't, because it says NO pilot present!!
Problem B then, is HOW do i get a pilot in there, without having to re-edit the scenerio file? i can't 'transfer' a pilot from Vespucci as it doesn't support UMMU.
So IS there a way to make it, so that when i select one or both of the DGIV .. it will 'bring' a pilot with me ... or at least allow me to 'select' a pilot to 'come on board' somehow?
Cheers
