Hi I've added the longway expansion. First I went to Biarge then got told to go to Soladies. I'm not at Soladies, when I got docked I was asked to take somebody somewhere but didn't write it down. I can't find anybody in the Pasengers in the Carrier Market and I have nobady on board, where has the bloke that wanted a lift gone, and what planit did he want a lift too.
Sorry for the newby question, but this is the first mission/expansion I have tried and now I've very confused!!!

There should be some short information on the second status screen (press f5 or 5 twice).
Essentially you have to pick someone up from Soladies and deliver them to Qubeen.
They don't appear on the passenger lists because they're travelling on the QT and you're assumed to be sharing your crew quarters with them.

OK I have no info on the second status screen, I am currently on my way to Qubeen to see if I will get another message about this mission. Otherwise I will assum it's a bug??? and report it?

Consider it reported - I'll look into it. About time I updated the Early Missions/Longway oxp anyway.

Ah, yes. This is a bug that was reported to me ages ago and I did nothing about. Basically a messed up missiontext.plist.
I've uploaded a debugged version to Oosat.
Trigging the Longway mission

Hello All,
Wow this game is a blast from the past. I was an Apple II elite fan back in the day.
So I've been sneaking in cycles here and there and have run into a problem with the Longway mission.
I've installed the .oxp properly. Ie. there is a mac package folder called Longway.oxp in the AddOns folder. If I show package contents I see
longway1.oxp and Longway.oxp.
I'm at Biarge but I can seem to trigger the mission. I've only got 42 kills. Is that the problem?
I just occured to me that this seems like a passenger mission. I don't have the passenger berths. Is that a problem?

Ahah!
Figured it out.
Some oxp were folders as opposed to packages.

No pasenger berths needed, the persons share your cabin.
