Ace, i've lost Q, B, & Shift-B, will try re-assigning them to other keys, see if that works, have you come up with anything yet?

yes, the reason why they don't fire, is the game think they are torpedoes, fire with SHIFT-Q

any ideas on the tractor beam?

B works for me...

check your control config, and remap it, the rebalence mod resets mine.

thanx for the help Ace, but how do i do this?
"check your control config, and remap it"

go to options, controls, then check EVERY key, also, remeber, if your missles show up in the torpedo area, you shoot them with the torpedo key (default Q)

thanx Ace, i'll check every key to the default setting, one thing i've noticed, i've got a heavy tractor beam, in the hold, but its unmounted, got several spare engines & upgrades as well, but it will not let me sell them? can i just dump them in space to mount the tractor beam?

okey the tractor beam you can unmount and remount, and sell, engines, only remount unmount, no selling, so buy 1 engine exept the stander engine, maybe you can keep engines from old ship.

I will check up on this

Ace, how do you mount & unmount something you have in your hold?

Tue Jun 17, 2003 9:14 pm by barn.door

re-above, you click the mount-unmount icon in the internal equipment window?

Tue Jun 17, 2003 9:20 pm by Ace Pace

as you said, click the unmount remount (you must unmount before mounting), but you have to be in base.

Ace, OK got the tractor sorted, worked out the mounting, s'cues the pun, any tips for the hovis race, best ship?

thats a question of style, if you want to finsh WAY ahead, take a light fighter, however they are useless ahead, I did it with the brits HF, just take graceful turns, you can be ahead from the 2nd ring.
