CaptnKarob Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Yeah - I know BCMG is no longer supported. I'm in the process of building a new gaming platform and will probably buy UCSE after that. I'm having a problem with autopilot. I target anything, press F to designate the flight path target, and press A to activate autopilot, but then the FPT changes to whatever was the last navigation target and autopilot takes me there. I thought at first that it was because my FO was off duty, but he is on-station now and it is still doing it. This especially sucks when the CAS alert goes off and I want to intercept an enemy craft. I target the enemy while they're still in HJ, press F and A and autopilot brings me back to a jumpgate instead of to whereever the enemy is going. Anyone ever seen this behavior? Is there anything I can do short of starting a new game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolferz Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Manually hyperjump to the target. Leave Resnig in the garbage disposal and you will get less unauthorized navigation. A loose nut behind the con is the last thing you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC_Vet Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Try activating autopilot and then going to the command menu and clicking on HALT orders. HALT orders clear all previous orders that may be queued into memory. If your CC stays at HALT while AP is engaged, the activate the Flight Point Indicator and see what happens.

CaptnKarob Posted August 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Thanks BC_Vet I'll try that tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnKarob Posted August 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 That works but it is still very annoying. Something new that has started happening is that the CC will enter HJ backwards sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Zwycky Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 if you happen to be pointing in exactly the opposite direction, that happens in all versions of the game, it's quite cool in the later versions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
