Jumpgate to base

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!

Jumpgate to base

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum section but I thought it should go here as it contains a sort of spoiler.

Right I was working on my new mod, which uses the alaska (the one where you resue Jacobi) system, I have several bases inside Zone 21 (yeah found a way through the minefield). Anyway I had to customise the name of my second Jumpgate to Alaska as Freelacer locks any gate thats called Li01_toLi05.

I tried setting the Jumpgate to take me to Prison station mitchel instead of another gate, what I got was an endless jumptunnel. This only happened when the defined destination object wasn't a jumpgate.

Is there a way to edit Freelancer so so jump destinations don't have to be Jumpgates?

I think there are mods that unlock locked jump gates.

It's an alternative since I don't think there's a mod that allows such a thing. After all, it would be a one way trip.

I have an idea. Open solararch.ini, go down to this entry. Copy it and make a few changes -

[Solar
nickname = prison <-- change to something like prison_gate
LODranges = 0, 1000, 2500, 6000, 20000
ids_name = 60215
ids_info = 60216
type = STATION <-- change to JUMPGATE_NODOCK
DA_archetype = solar\dockable\prison_lod.cmp
material_library = solar\Solar_mat_dockable01.mat
material_library = fx\envmapbasic.mat
envmap_material = envmapbasic
mass = 10000.000000
loadout = prison
open_sound = depot_open_sound
close_sound = depot_close_sound
docking_sphere = berth, HpDockMountA, 4.500000, Sc_open dock1
docking_sphere = moor_medium, HpDockMountB, 5.000000
docking_sphere = moor_medium, HpDockMountC, 5.000000
docking_sphere = moor_large, HpDockMountD, 10.000000
docking_camera = 0
solar_radius = 600
shape_name = NAV_depot
hit_pts = 999999961690316250000000000000000000.000000

Now give Mitchell this new entry instead of the old one. It might not work, and even if it does, it would be a one way trip, but it's all I can think of

You can use a jump base. You create a base that when you dock you are sent to Mitchell becuase you set dock with base field to Mitchell you can make it look like a hole or a gate.
