Title: I cant moor!
Post by: Daniel Cho on July 30, 2009, 23:57:45
hi um I can't moor motor class boats. :thumbdown: I can moor it during the missions but the mission icon( in top left corner of the screen) is saying "not reached yet" but I actually did reached it and moored it but it always says "not reached yet" ( just the mooring part of the missions)

all the other class boats works properly but motor class boats doesn't

I can't finish missions that has motor class boats :'(. (there are whole bunch of saved missions because can'
t finsh it.)

No, as nothing is really wrong with your game.

Hi Daniel,
In some missions you can moor to a range of bollards to complete a waypoint but in others you need to moor to one particular bollard. Normally, if it is only one bollard, it will be the one nearest the centre of the waypoint circle, but sometimes it can be offset.
The other possibility is that you need to moor to more than one bollard.

When you complete a waypoint and SS08 shows you the next waypoint then you will get some instructions on screen on how to complete the next waypoint, I have found that it is a good idea to read those instructions closely. You can also see most of these instructions in the 'Ships Log'.

My other suggestion would be that you just keep putting ropes out to different bollards until you complete the waypoint.  :)

Regards, Dave

Please don't type in caps, on the forum it is considered shouting. Could you please tell us what missions these are? Also your version number might help, you can find that in the bottom left corner of the main menu.

i actually have the same problem. on the "working in the atlantic" mission. i have reached all but the last two waypoints. i can't reach them because they do not become active. i am at the oil rig to unload the containers but nothing happens.

this in on the "Sherpa"

Because that mission is in the "Top 10 Bugged Missions" charts.  Fixed version can be found in Custom missions or on Creator's Forum, if I'm not mistaking.
