I managed to get Pygar working perfectly, plus i did a dockable Sprague as well.

With Pygar you have to move the follow camera otherwise it will clip one of the walls as the view rotates round during landing. Easy to do once you look through one of the files.

Sprague needed serious surgery to work in mp, but got there in the end. In fact it was my gf at the time who was used to working with lua scripts who sorted it out for me lol.

There’s so much that’s included with FL that isn’t in the final game, but works if you code it in. There’s various missing weapons fx, thruster fx, code for changing the price randomly every time you dock, blah blah blah. So much in there if you spend the time.

Out of memory I would say that faction to faction rep is set during the first launch of the game based on the content of the initialworlds.ini and stored in the restartl.fl
Story mission do not change this at all. These values won’t change.
If you want a certain behaviour of factions in story missions you need to define this manually to the ship or the group/formation (depending on how you spawn the NPCs).
Act_SetRep only alters the player reputation.
