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!

You can win it in any ship if you practice, I cant stand this part of the game tho. Its a Mario Platform silliness in a fantastic game.

I cheat Dexter, its easy really. Get Bini or any other INI. file decompressor. Use it on MS6. Once you can read it with Wordpad, just delete one line.....

Find this in the INI. file.

Thats how Dexter flies thru the rings, all 20 of them. You delete ring 20. He wont go thru. Cant. He dont know how!

Word of caution, make a backup of course, in case. Also get your self set for the weapon platforms and his pals to shoot at you ALOT.
He does it anyways, he CHEATS that way.

When I played that mission, ship handling improved a lot when I sold my 275 units of gold. But I have just tried to measure the difference, and now I cannot see any significant difference between empty ship and ship with 275 units of cardamine. In both cases:

1 complete turn with "standing" start: 7.3-7.4 seconds.
5 complete turns with "flying" start: 34.9-35.4 seconds.

(Measured at zero velocity, rotating around main axes. Anyone who knows Pythagoras may be able to improve these figures approx. 30%.)

Dunno if they have made only "heavy" cargo as gold affect ship handling. Perhaps the difference only existed in my mind.

P.S.
I also tried 5 turns at cruise speed. Still no difference.
