Undocking problem

Postby Bowser » Fri Sep 03, 2004 11:13 pm

I am trying to undock a boat named Olipifirovash Forest Water Taxi - 001. I hit the undock button and am told to choose a direction to undock, yet there are no choices. I click the button, but nothing happens.

This could be because you built the boat where it can't undock into water. Meaning, for example, a Raft type boat can only undock in a Lake, and a Soarer type can only undock in a Sea. So, then, your boat probably can only leave in one of these bodies of water, but it doesn't exist. Make sure to check your location map, to see if there's a Sea and/or Lake there, and if you don't know what your boat type can sail on, feel free to ask, it won't infringe on any CR breach (When building the boat, it should tell you if that body of water isn't there for it, however that doesn't seem to be working.)

This boat is one of the oldest boats I have owned. I have used it on the lake forever. It is located right now inside a lake landing stage. This is the first time I have ever been given a direction option when trying to undock. I used to hit undock and just be on my way.

Now I am asked for a direction to undock, but no options or radio buttons are available for me to check, so when I hit the next undock button, nothing happens.

Hmm, I guess there's something else to this problem. I'm sorry, we'll have to wait for Programming on this one.

Should be solved now.

Thanks for the help, Bowzer :) ...
