Won't use Farcaster

Post by Dirt12 »

I'm trying to work with the mission editor to create some custom missions. I can't seem to figure out how to force a capitol ship to use a farcaster. They keep using the quantum drive instead. Below is a simple "test" script that I've been messing with. My approach has been to
1) set waypoint 1 inside Jarnell-Dawn farcaster
2) action = vector
3) jump = Use Farcaster
4) set waypoint 2 just outside Dawn-Jarnell farcaster

Every time the carrier kicks on its Q-drive rather than use the farcaster. Please show me the error of my ways. Thanks.
