Hilarious events in SIg-13

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!

Hilarious events in SIg-13

Has anyone ever hange dout around the ALG base in sig-13. Have you noticed that whenever a Samura or Kishsiro transport or ship arrives, the Base says "You are not authorized to be here" or something, and the Kusari ships say something along the lines of "screw you". And then the Rheinland bound trade lanes, the station, and all Rheinalnd or Rheinalnd corporate ships start atatcking the Kusari ships, who promptly flee into oxygen pockets or are annihilated on the spot. Also notice that while the GMG and ALG claim to be allied, the GMG trade lines fire on the ALG ships? This is a really wierd and funny piece of game-scripting (this is unmodded, BTW).

Hi Andkat, and welcome to the forums!!!

This is borderline spoiler, so I'm going to play it safe and move it to the spoiler forum. You'll get an email from me saying where it went.

It's a curious glitch in Freelancer. If you have a group of friendly ships present, and one of their allies, to whom you're hostile, shows up, your allies go hostile. It's quite annoying sometimes when you're just about to deliver your load of Cardamine to Manhattan and suddenly the docking ring goes hostile.

Actually, this is between NPC's. It's funny because ALG claims to be friendly w/ the GMG, yet the GMG trade lanes fire upon the ALG ships, and the ALG ships attack the Samura and Kisshiro ships, who flee into oxygen pockets. Also, have you noticed that for all their boasting about being experts at navigating and amnuevring in the sig-13 oxygen clouds and pockets, yiu will see them fly directly into the oxygen pockets? There are alot of weird things in this game, usually scripting errors. Have you ever scanned the omega unknown jumphole. Its description is 3x as long almsot, and Ageria is replaced by Valhalla Research and Monumet ENgineering. Just another example that this game could've used just a couple of more months in development (though it's stil great).
