...Who wants to endeavor with me on a Star Trek mod. I'm thinking PAST TNG like around the end of the Voyager series because TOS has been over done with mods. I know that there is a posiblity that we won't be able to mod the assets, but hey, wishful thinking.

ACK! Ok, BCM kept me off Everquest for about 2 weeks, but I'm back at it again. I just can't get enough of Everquest. I want to play BCM, but its like EQ is calling me, it keeps calling my name. I've even removed the icon for it from my desktop. PLEASE, somebody give me an idea to get back into BCM again.

You'd think Take Two would learn. Don't worry about Red Storm, they're a BIG company. Somebody will pick them up from the ashes.

LOL! This thread is great!

Tried AT&T, Adelphia (Ever seen Cable d/l at 2k/s all the time, get Adelphia), and I'm going with Bellsouth Fastaccess. Of the three I like Bellsouth the most, since its the fastest(I'm practically next door neighbor to the server) and the support has ALWAYS helped me.

Perhaps I should clear up the situation a little more. I was almost out of missles, and heavily damaged from a battle earlier. Plus, I ran because this Aestrom uncloaked right next to me. If heavy damage (and I mean heavy, tactical computer was like, gone...) with high-level AI commanders don't make you run, you got mental problems. Basically, I got into a fight that I knew I couldn't get out of. Boy, do I feel proud of that!

Heh, don't worry, I won't park on a gasous planet. I learned my lesson when I flew my Sunflash in one to get away from an aestrom. On the plus side, the aestrom didn't get me

I love this game, its actually stopped me from playing Everquest. If thats not a feat, then I don't know what is. Anyhow, I tried again last night to get the problem to happen again, I was unlucky. Heh, funny that when I look for it it doesn't happen, yet when I don't look for it happens.

Actually, I tried parking in GALCOM HQ. Sure enough, the AI level of my marines went up. Thanks for all your help!

Oops my bad, I didn't see that there was another post concerning it. Listen SC if you want I'll be glad to send you a save of it if Geldonyetich hasn't yet, It ALWAYS happens to me, like at least once every time I play the game. I hope you get this fixed soon, my exp just went down another -350 tonight from this. [ 01-04-2002: Message edited by: Adm. WeeGee ]

Ok, cool, can someone give me the location of a normally safe place?

They hyperspace right inside of them and fly around in the space under the planet polygon. If I try to hyperspace inside the planet to reach them, I'll enter the planetary atmosphere as soon as I drop out of hyperspace. Fortunately, my NPC controlled fighters and shuttles are able to fly around inside of planets in space mode just fine, so I'm able to reach those otherwise unattainable NPC ships. Just hang around next to a planetary body long enough (I recommend Earth) and this'll eventually happen - it seems alot of NPCs use the planet itself as a warp navigational beacon. quote: Reply to that post by Supreme Commander: ...and this is a bug because??? Sorry to say this Mr. Smart. BUT HOW IS THIS NOT A BUG????? I personally have had this same problem, they are going RIGHT into the planets, in the polygon, and enemies are killing friendly ships which has made my exp go to nil. Is this really how it was intended? It makes no sense to me, its not that they are hypering through planets, they are actually hypering into planets and literally fighting inside the planetary boundry.

Ok, thanks for the help. I'm just getting annoyed at that little glitch where I hyper into the atmosphere.

Ok, cool, I thought of putting some low AI dudes in there, since they can't seem to find any people searching. Ok, two more questions on the inner-ship defense deal. How do you improve the AI of your guys without cheating (if you can cheat, was playmod for BCM released?), and does having marines prepped for combat help them fight the intruders?

Ok, to protect my shuttles from being stolen I'm shutting down the launch control when I don't need it, but if I place some marines to be always in the shuttles will they attack any intruders that try to steal the shuttles? Sorry if this is a repeat.

Alright, this issue is a gameplay issue. Whenever I set course to hyper to a station thats on another side of the planet from me, I fly straight through the planet. During combat, when I'm protecting a friendly station, I've actually hypered into the area where you start your descent into the planet's atmosphere several times. I'm getting really annoyed about this, cause its caused my exp to go to like negative 10000. Will someone please help me. Is this a bug, or hypering through planets part of the game. I searched for hypering through planets and flying through planets, I'm sorry if this is a repeat. [ 01-03-2002: Message edited by: Adm. WeeGee ] [ 01-03-2002: Message edited by: Adm. WeeGee ]

I've got one more question, it's not on this topic, but I'm too much of a lazy llama ass to just create a new post. How exactly do you find your mining drone once you leave it on the planet.

Thanks for the help, BCM is great!

Will somebody please kindly tell me the purpose of the Science and Explorer careers, and how to get exp with them if its different from the standard military careers. Oh, and don't flame me. I just had a thought about them, are they intended for the multiplayer component that will be coming out? [ 01-02-2002: Message edited by: Adm. WeeGee ]
