| Summary | 0000569: CTD when support ship is called in for fighters without a support ship dockpoint. | ||||
| Description | Pretty much as said above. Any time any ship (player or AI) without a support ship dockpoint calls for a support ship, the game CTDs while it looks for a path to follow. This is annoying, as the AI can't be made not to call for support ships unless they're blanket banned, and for some models having no support dock is useful. | ||||
| Additional Information | Ideally, the fix would just involve FS2 checking for the dock before the support ship request is processed, and just sending a little error message in the vein of "Weapons set to dual fire mode". Something along the lines of "This class of ship cannot be resupplied by a support ship." | ||||

I think this is a problem on the modeler's end--it's their responsibility to adda support ship dock for any player-flyable craft. A quick fix is just importing dock data from another fighter using PCS. It might not line up but it works fine. |

Well maybe, but what if a mod wants to ensure that a ship class should not be able to call for support? Plus the game shouldn't crash. I'm thinking a quick change to is_support_allowed will fix this. |

K, fixed. Fighters will not call in a support ship if they don't have a support dockpoint. |
