[SOLVED]Problem with Atlas?
Posted: Sun Jan 26, 2014 9:55 pm

I am looking for reports of "wild"(npc) Atlas's
with cargo pods. I thought I had designed it to appear both with, and without cargo pods, but I have played for a couple hours now, and though I have seen at least 8-10 Atlas's, so far,
none of them have had cargo pods...
I know I have the sub-entity set correctly, since the player version has its pod, but I would very much like to know if anyone who has downloaded this, has seen an npc with its pod! Thanks!
UPDATE: Thanks to Smivs for spotting my booboo! }:] I will release an update tomorrow to fix this issue!

Suggest you put this thread in with the OXP thread. When I read the subject, I thought that there was a problem with the real life Atlas 5 rocket (then realised it wasn't in the Outworld area).

No, I am pretty sure I have done something stupid... again, I just don't know what.

dtt_atlas_player shows up no problem,
dtt_atlas_no_cargo also appears as planned, but I have chased down at least 25 npc Atlas's now, without seeing a single
dtt_atlas_cargo.

You've given the sub-ent ("dtt_atlas_cargo") the same name as the ship-with-cargo ("dtt_atlas_cargo"). Probably what is happening is that when the ship is being spawned the game is adding a second ship instead of the cargo module, with the ship's 'twin' in exactly the same location/position (as the sub-ent is dead-centred on the main model). So you have two identical ships in exactly the same position, hence it looks like one ship with no cargo.

AAAARGH! Thank you Smivs! I will go change that and test it asap. Another example of not being able to see the forest through the trees! };] Always helps to have a second pair of eyes helping you too! };] Thanks again pardner!
