Static Constrictor

[Koroshi]

Hi folks,

Short-time lurker, first-time poster.

I was wondering if anyone else has run into an issue with the Constrictor mission. Remembering how it worked in the original Elite I managed to track down the Constrictor to ************.

However, when I get there it has spawned near the witchspace beacon, but just sits still offering NO resistance to being destroyed.

Another one then re-spawns nearby and also sits still. and so on...

When you give up on this and go and dock you haven't completed the mission.

I'm running the latest version on a Linux box, with Aegidian specials and x-ships, Dictators, Torus stations, and DeepSpace OXPs

Any ideas?
I'd prefer it to work for me but at a push would tolerate a workaround resulting in the mission finishing and me getting my prize!

cheers,
koroshi

Please try with the latest release. Trunk is not intended for normal play.

Thank you - all sorted!

I had rashly assumed that canonical's package was the latest <ahem>
