Summary0001860: Error about ship orders which is false
Description+ Grab the attached mission
+ It has a wing called "Maras" which has two Maras. "Maras 1" is a "SF Mara (Terrans)" and "Maras 2" is a "SF Mara".
+ Both are set to friendly and BOTH have the same initial order: Play dead 50 (Also checked through Notepad in the fs2 file)
+ But when you open/save the mission you get a strange error (I also attach a screenshot):

"Wing Maras has ships with different player orders which are ignored. They must all be the same"

And as you can check that Error is completely false
Additional InformationOfftopic info:

With this mission I just wanted to check that "SF Mara (Terrans)" appears as such in game. Just related to this post in HLP: http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,60076.0.html

I should have read this one more carefully before assigning it to myself. It's not actually a bug (Although the error message could probably be improved). The error does not refer to the initial orders but to the orders you can give the ship via the communications menu in-game. Maras 1 will accept all the orders, Maras 2 won't accept any of them (Shivan ships by default are hostile and thus have all of them turned off).

Simply go to the ships editor for each ship and press the Player Orders button and you'll quickly see the difference.

I will change the error message to make it more clear.
