Clipping Issues *POSSIBLE SPOILER*

Wed Apr 16, 2003 2:36 am by zhaker

Gday,

I been playng and mucking around with the dll files and such, and managed to get a bretonia battleship going and stuff, but I am having difficulty with this clipping I am having.... I am docked in Kyoto Base, but I cant get out of the damn base, because I am clipped on this large asteroid field, I tried looking for it, but I dont know which collision file it is thus I am stuck on this damn rock =P.

Do you know which collision file it is so I can get off or is there a better method to do such as task?

Gday,

I found a possible solution to my clipping problem, but its a temporary and I dunno how it affects on a small ship, since me using a large ship. But if is say those big ass Rhienland ships then there is no way to get around this so, guess I need to figure out how to extend the sizes of the dock size, probably need to change the CMP, the SUR and possible the ini files of the docking stations....

To deal with the docking problems of large ships I changed the solararch.ini file changed all the moor points to act like jumpgates now any ship in the game can dock anywhere.

Yes Docking is one thing, but getting out of a dock in Kyoto is another thing, I aint worried about the docking part, just getting outta that base was just hard, I couldnt understand it, and to figure out how to get outta a base dock with a Rhienland Battleship is quite hard, but if someone can gimme pointers on how its odne I would appreciate it.

Tested it with the rhienland battleship. That was the ship you said you where having the problem with.

The solararch.ini file on the server is the only one that has to be modified to allow large ships to dock in MP. So if the server is running an unmodifed copy of the game large ships can't dock.

Oh My GOD!

Do you have any idea how significant a find this is?
People are making mods with DOCKING RINGS for stations! This is so much better!
