You can not tow with broken towbar, this means you lost the towed ship somewhere. You must get a console message when broken and buy another or wait for fixing if has a Towbar Repair Bot. You can check visually in the aft view (but if set to retractable then when towing a ship only).Corny wrote:When I arrived back at the station, they were listed as broken.
See this example about the two different formatting, must not mix these in one file.Corny wrote:The FighterHUD I wanted to use uses a different formatting
Maybe other ship shot it down? Please try to do it again and record it.

It was all recorded.You got me wrong - the towbar worked fine and I got the ship back to the station. The fuel injectors were broken.Norby wrote:You can not tow with broken towbar, this means you lost the towed ship somewhere.

There was no ship nearby. It just disappeared in the moment where I would've started towing it.Norby wrote:Maybe other ship shot it down? Please try to do it again and record it.

Maybe you forgot what you said in the XML to OpenStep converter thread.Corny wrote:I didn't know how to convert it.
Maybe you modified your savegame (based on forum search).Corny wrote:15:24:51.818 [cheat.tentative]: POSSIBLE CHEAT DETECTED

TimeLimit is a common problem of all OXP writers, to step forward need to be repeatable (at least on the same machine) and need to find which OXP produce it. My usual way to find is the binary halving: remove the first half of the OXPs and if the problem persist then halve again. If gone then must double check the another half due to there is possible to gone also and exists only if both part present.Corny wrote:15:39:29.117 [script.javaScript.timeLimit]: ***** ERROR: Script "(null)" ran for 0.208945 seconds and has been terminated.
The towable mass is limited to 1.6 times of the mass of your ship so to tow a space bar you must ride a BaseShip.spara wrote:unless you are trying to tow a space bar
If I was more of a writer, a deserted station (space bar maybe) could be a central part of a gloomy oxp.Norby wrote:The towable mass is limited to 1.6 times of the mass of your ship so to tow a space bar you must ride a BaseShip.spara wrote:unless you are trying to tow a space bar
Moreover the bar must be derelict which is very unwonted imho.
