If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

i have no trouble fyling my ship through normal missions its just that in this one the thing tries to dodge all the little particles floating around on its own. For those of use that dont have the reflexes of an 8 year old, it is quite hard to stear through the rings while your ship is juking around like crazy on its own. I also find myself getting dropped out of cruise mode for no reason. In normal missions a rock can ding ur shields and u wont come out of cruise, but for some reason on this level a dust particle the size of a snot ball is enough to do it. I find myself limping along to the next ring juking around and repeatedly trying to go back into cruise mode. I either need a cheat to bypass this mission or a way to get my ship to stay in cruise mode and stop juking around.

Please help!! ive tried like 20 times right now and am on the verge of ripping the CD in half.

Don't under any circumstances use the "Goto" command (or the "Dock with" command for that matter) to engage the Cruise Engine during the race. It means that you are in Autopilot mode which makes your ship evade obstacles or even stops it if the obstacle is too big. Use the combination SHIFT+W instead. This enagages the Cruise Engine while staying in FREE FLIGHT mode, which is absolutely crucial to win the race.

much thanks. I couldnt figure out why my ship was tweaking out like that and stopping all of a sudden. God and for a while there i thought i just really sucked at piloting. I actually almost won once with it bouncing around like that.

No, you don't suck at piloting... you suck at understanding your ship's systems and how they work. Just kidding... sh*t happens and you've learned something. That's all that counts.
