Have something against healthy outdoor persuits do you?

Ooops... my bad! I was looking in that one to see if I could find keys as you described and went and copy/pasted the wrong one. My questions still stands... Are they the bits I have highlighted ? <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Compute...

Err... confused I am. Coulndn't find <role> or AI in the Supercobra shipdata.plist (in the config folder of the OXP, right?) found <key>roles</key>, and <key>ai_type</key> is that what I'm looking for? If so, to what do I change them? (see shipdata.plist below) <?xml version="1.0" encoding...

No shame in it! It also means you have to fight Supercobras...

Is it just me?... or is NPC supercobra AI a bit crap? They just don't seem to put up much of a fight. Often find a fugitive supercobra just hanging around outside the station... doesn't even fight back whilst I laser him up.

There's always Elite for the Pocket PC,

I play that a lot on my T-Mob Vario II.

Nice of them to let me refuel and buy a few baubles, is this some kind of alien chivalric code? To my supri...

I always thought you pulled up hard rather than diving Ha. Thanks for that, worked first time. I was labouring under the impression that either worked. Unfortunately, having arrived in witchspace the prog immediately locked up. I waited a long ol' time before resorting to the two finger salute. Wil...

Oops, I meant v.1.71.2 under WinXP if that is important.

What am I doing wrong? Never managed it yet.

I bin diving hard just before zero, but to no avail. I spent a whole session just jumping back and forth trying slightly different timings.

I will look up the Guild when I get to G7.
In the meantime, I have my hits, and interesting things going on in the NE quadrant of G2.
