Base missions weirdness
-
I’m seeing an issue with destroy base missions in one of our systems.
You take the base mission and when you undock the base you’re supposed to destroy is superimposed on the base you just left.
I had to have the destroy_vignette zone touch the system base in order for missions to even show up on the job board. Other than raising or lowering the base 500m, how can I prevent the mission from showing up so close to the base?

Hello,
could you say us what inis you are editing and also sending us the code, have you checked syntaxe? Please? Thank you.

it’s a non-vanilla system. The code for the vignettes are as follows: (they’re all the same but for the location)
[zone]
nickname = Zone_Bw11_destroy_vignette_01
pos = -13943, 0, 15468
shape = SPHERE
size = 10000
mission_type = unlawful, lawful
sort = 99.5
vignette_type = fieldLooking at other systems I see different vignette_types
open, field, and exclusion.What are the differences there?
I’m assuming that mission_type lawful, or unlawful, or lawful, unlawful has to do with missions being offered against lawfuls, unlawfuls, or both. No?
TIA

Have you tried to change the field to “open”? Because in the Honshu system, there is only open field vignette type and the mission are shown in the bar anywhere when it’s a base destruction mission type.
Have you tried to use FL Mod Studio?
I think that Open is for mission accessible from every base, the others?… :?
-
The issue isn’t that bases aren’t offering missions. It’s that the base indicated offers a base mission but when you undock to do the mission, the base is superimposed on the station.
So, you’re on the Hiraizumi Mining Facility and you take a mission to destroy an enemy installation. It could be a base or just weapons platforms, or both. You undock from Hiraizumi, turn around, and the base you’re supposed to destroy is right on top of Hiraizumi.
I’ll make sure that that particular vignette is set to open to check it out though.
-
For vignette_type, what are the differences between
field
open
and
exclusion?and what do those parameters allow/disallow?
-
Some exclusion vignettes have exclusion zone inside but that’s not the rule. Exclusion for NPC?
…
NPC exclusion when there is a mission that cross the patrol path?..
I really don’t know, I have to take all the systems to see. It’s hard to tell the difference because in the map read from FL Mod, it’s never the same thing.
Can you send me the system via PM to see? Please? Because your zone is really far from the base! I need a visual. Have you tried to change the zone size?
-
Probably that?
-
well, maybe but if I move or remove that vignette the base doesn’t offer any missions at all so there’s no way to confirm.
I remember reading a while back that in order for a base to offer missions at least one of the vignettes needs to be touching the base.
[d]Wait, what is that square? The vignettes are the green circles, no? So, what is that yellow square?[/d] Oh, nm, that’s probably just the program indicator showing which zone is being referenced.
-
Strangely, the vignette is inside the population zone. I think the game doesn’t know what to do.
Try to put encounters in the exclusion zone near the base. It’s the case for Chugoku.
