Cockpit Aspect Errors Fix

Another lucky strike. I occasionally got the following errors in certain systems:-

WARNING: cockpit aspect (1.848376) is not PC-compatible?

One ship used by NPCs in that system (there may be more, I still have to check the others) had pilot hardpoints but no cockpit hardpoints. Fitting a cockpit hardpoint in the .cmp file stopped the error.

Some ships (e.g. capital ships) have no pilot hardpoint and no cockpit hardpoint and there have not been any cockpit aspect messages.

So if your ship's pilot should be visible, i.e. small ships with glass canopies, then you need to have a pilot hardpoint for the generic_pilot to sit on. And if you need to have a pilot, then - give him a hardpoint for his cockpit too!

Note the HpCockpit hardpoint must be named "HpCockpit", and not "HpCockpit01".

Any different findings from anyone?

By the way, anyone know what the "HpCockpitEx" hardpoint is used for?

Roleplay: - the art of self-deceipt!

I don't know for sure, but most likely HpCockpitEx was originally how the external camera's position was to be defined.
