Nomad Battleship won''t die - MP

Sun Feb 04, 2007 2:39 pm by robocop

I'm running a version of the XTS battleship encounters mod on my server and have a minor problem. It seems that the Nomad battleship just won't die. It will eventually but LOOOOOOOOOOONG after the hull bar is gone. I've even tried replacing the fuses and explosion arch with those for the other battleships but no joy. The server is also running the player loot mod (enabled for freighters) but that does not seem to affect any of the other cap ships.

Here's the shiparch as it stands now.

What do I need to do to make sure the nomad battleship dies when it's supposed to and explodes how it's supposed to?

Check the loadout for the ship and look for equip = armor_scale_***.If it is a very high number one that could be the cause becuase a 7 would be 7 times the amount of armor. That's all I could think of.

It has the same armor_scale as all the other BS which explode just fine.

This is the loadout

Do npc's use Bots/Batts? If so they my be repairing themselves with those Bots you have on them

No, the don't. At any rate the power of a fully armed and operational Dreadnought should be more than enough to overcome that.

As a matter of fact in a broadside slugfest between me in a Dreadnought with modified cap ship weapons and the Nomad BS I had to go through 1000 nanos before it would die.

It just won't die....

Why won't you just die!!!!!?

*hangs head and mumbles*... looks like you were right...

It dies now. No beautiful explosion, as a matter of fact there's just an initial explosion and then the ship just winks out. Giving it the fuses and explosion_arch of the liberty dreadnought doesn't change it.

They do regen. I have the same thing on my mod atm. When they regen, its hardly noticeable. Try removing the batts/bots from the loadout and see it that works. Or change the pilot.
