| Summary | 0001699: Ships can be docked but not undocked from Gunships | ||||
| Description | A ship like a fighter can be initially docked to a ship with the gunship flag but cannot be given an order to undock in an event. Works for other ship classes but not for gunships. | ||||
| Additional Information | Running TBP 3.6.9 inferno build of FRED but also tested with a new 3.6.10 inferno build. 2 ships in the attached mission have the problem. One is the Vree ship the other a Firehawk. Event Surprise is where I try to undock them. | ||||

Have you assigned another ship type in addition to the gunship type for these ships? Or do they only have the 'gunship' flag? |
|
|
I'm using the core tables with no modifcations. They both have only the "gunship" and "in tech database" flags. |
|
|
I'll take a look at the hard coded options and try to see if there would be something preventing this.. |
|
|
Well... couldnt see anything in the code about it so i checked the TBP tables. In objecttypes.tbl the 'gunship' lacks "dock" and "undock" from the '+Valid goals:' list. That might be the reason. |
|
|
I guess this raises the question of weather a ship that can't dock should be allowed to be initially docked then. |
|
|
So.. can you test if for example adding those flags would solve the issue? The other thing... i doubt it can be prevented if it has been used already (not sure about it) but perhaps it could use some sort of popup warning in fred. |
|
|
If I add those to the table then I can use the ai-undock on the gunships in FRED. I never got far enough to have a mission that could actually be tested to see if the undocking works in game. |
|
|
Wanderer solved it. Initially docked ships are completely unrelated to ships that can dock or undock via AI goals. |
