So I managed to understand how the story missions do this:
With triggered fuses that destroy the shield generator and the attached equipment to disable the particle emitter
Seriosly DA? m(

I also tried to add geometry to the [Shield] object from select_equip,
but either the texture or the 3db model is not loaded,
resulting in an invisible mesh. So that doesn’t work either.

I completely forgot about this line in shiparch.
So I changed the pilot_mesh entry and it works just like I wanted, thanks!

@.Nx: I used the orignal FL model as base, but I changed the posture and removed the chair. That is why I needed to put a specific pilot in my special ship.

the best you can achieve is by using an effect that something like a helix motion when the missile is flying.

After much work the hopefully final Version 1.2 is finished
It brings many changes improvements and some new content, so check it out.

The full changelog can be viewed on ModDB or in the readme.

So lean back an enjoy

So I’m pretty sure I found the solution in the old posts, thanks go to foxunit01. Contrary to my initial belief, it has got nothing to do with hostility of the spawned ships and the station.

As a rule of thumb, each faction that patrols to or from any base should be mentioned in the [MBase] entry of the station like this:

[BaseFaction] faction = uv_xyz_grp weight = 1 offers_missions = false

That sould stop the crashes. If you still get them, the tools from adoxa can help you find the culprit.
