Moving a player''s location? (maybe spoilers?)

Is it possible to edit a multiplayer character's location in the server records? Which file would I have to change? I have Rebalance 1.4b on my server, and made the mistake of entering a jump hole near the hawaii. I ended up near the nomad lair with no way back. I just want to get the character out of the system and back to anywhere in "normal" space.

I just thought the jump hole labelled "omicron beta" went where it said it did!

Obviously I can't just load the last save game because there are no savegames.

TIA

Rob

If you die you'll respawn at the last place you docked, all you loose is unmounted equipment and cargo, better than loosing the whole character.

There's an idea. Now all I have to figure out is how to destroy the ship in an empty system when it has class 10 shields. :-7 I don't think collision damage will do it.

Mea Culpa. The jump hole which was added in the mod was *not* one way. I swear I turned around when I first arrived and there was no jump hole back out. So the only way out (other than respawning) is the way you came in. The nav map doesn't work, and doesn't show the jump hole (or the lair for that matter, but it's dead centre on the nav map). I flew back to the lair to try to cause the character to respawn and virtually ran straight into the jump hole. The only way you can find it is visually - unless you select it when you first arrive, then you have an indicator.
