Help with "Longway Round" - I think!

Post by DaddyHoggy »

Hi Guys,

I've just been offered a mission to transport a certain old gentleman from one planet to another before he dies - based on the positioning of the two systems I think I'm now in the LongWay Round mission (its in my AddOns Dir after all!)

However, I just wanted to check something with anybody whose already done it - The gentleman concerned appears as a "Mission" but doesn't appear as a passenger in the one berth I bought especially. i.e. it says: "Passengers: 0 (1)"

Is this right? If I scoot off half way round the galaxy will I find I've left him behind?

TIA

He's sitting up front with you in your co-pilots seat, so doesn't appear on the list as a passenger! :wink: (This OXP was written before we had passenger beths, so it works this way.)

Yes, I remember that fella. Kept leaving half-eaten pate and cream cheese sandwiches down the side of the pilot's seat. I'd seen about half a dozen doctors and taken a thousand different anti-biotics before I found that little 'gift'.

@Capt. H :lol: and @LB

Thanks - I'll sell the cabin and get my cargo space back!

CMk3 is a two seater after all.
