scoochy Posted October 23, 2004 Report Posted October 23, 2004 So I'm in the mars system and I send my shuttle to tow an insurgent LRT. He flys out, tractors it, and I give him an Escort Me order to keep him close. Decide to fly back to earth with the shuttle towing the LRT. I give myself the JUMP AT earth. The shuttle follows along. I get through the jump gate on Earth side, minus the shuttle and LRT. I give him a Jump at Earth command, but to no avail. All in all, he never made it through the gate since it CTD before I could play with it some more. My question is, can my shuttle jump through gates with something in tow. And also, if I want him to follow me around, including when I go through jump gates, should I use the Escort Command or is there a better one.
dingbat91 Posted October 23, 2004 Report Posted October 23, 2004 anyhting thats towing something can't go through gates well i'm 80% sure anyway sorry
TheDarknessIncarnate Posted October 24, 2004 Report Posted October 24, 2004 actually. Ive used a SC to tow my CC, so the Jump is faster, then had it Jump at a gate, so I could jump to the planet faster. A SC can jump with sum1thing in tow, and can use Gates aswell
scoochy Posted October 24, 2004 Author Report Posted October 24, 2004 When this was happening, my AE was in the CC. I'm sure if I was piloting, I would have made it through the gate. Mabe I should've went out the CC airlock, jet packed myself through the gate, boarded the shuttle and did it myself. Jarheads sometimes don't make the best shuttle pilots I guess. Which would explain why they can't find the mining drone that they just landed on for pick up.
