| Summary | 0000531: FRED Randomly Selects Player Ship. | ||||
| Description | When creating a new mission in FRED, FRED will assign the player ship flag to a ship other than Alpha 1, and the button to do this is greyed-out. The only ships that won't have the button greyed-out will be those that are not in a wing. Upon saving, FRED will randomly select a non-Alpha-1 fighter in a wing as the playership, and give a warning about it. If non-winged ships are present at the time of 1st save, FRED will assign the playership to the first of these that were placed on the grid. After 1st save, the option to select the playership becomes available to all craft, and Alpha-1 may be selected and no further errors of this type will be encountered, therefore it is only a temporary annoyance. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Create mission, add fighters and group with initial ship as Alpha wing. Then, either save or add some non-winged ships and save. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

What version of FRED are you using? |
|
|
I've seen this warning, but I always wind up as Alpha 1 anyway. Is it actually breaking the mission or just FRED's understanding of it? |

The indexes of the custom wing names weren't getting updated until the mission was reloaded (after saving). Should be fixed now. |
