Hi all,
I just got UCCE, installed, upgraded to 1.01.04 and then to 2.0
I started playing through the tutorial and have reached page 18 where it describes how to retrieve a cargo pod with a shuttle.

The instructions say to locate and designate the "cargo pod" target in the TRS. However, I can not find one.
I have tried clicking the objects in the TRS, and also cycling through with the , and . keys
I uninstalled/re-installed and tried without patching, but could not find it there either.

I have searched the forums for 'tutorial' and 'cargo pod' but found nothing relevant.

Can someone please tell me how to find the pod ?

Thanks

Um, im gonna say this w/o reading a manual or w/e.


Unless your shuttle is your command-ship, just do a cargo sweep with the shuttle until it collects everything in the current system. Or you can do the 'Collect cargo pod' option thingy.


But if your shuttle is the command ship, i have no clue.

And i have no clue why anyone would want to play as a shuttle unless they're ground combat junkies.

Either way, hope this can help you in some way...

Open the RTM in the VID and press 9 to display MISC targets in the TRS, I think by default they are filtered out.
