I don't want these for hire!

In the plug i'm working on I have government ships that appear in the hire box in the bar. If anyone knows how to get them out of there I would appreciate it.

I've had the same problem, and have never found out how to fix it... :frown:

Make the ship related to a mission bit.

If you do that, it shouldn't ever appear for hire.

At least that was the case in the past.

Yep, note how you have to complete certain missions to be able to buy UE military ships. Consequently, none of them ever appear for hire.

Ask me what I'm doing.

I have several government ships in a plug I'm working on; none of them are escorts to be hired via the bar. Neither are any of them tied to a mission bit; I just set their 'availability' fields to 9999. I don't think it matters what number you actually choose, just so long as it doesn't match a tech or special tech level number being used by a spob in your plug.

Keep in mind that whatever you have set for the tech level effects both the shipyard and the bar. You can't have one or the other; it's all or nothing.

/me glances at Matt. Perhaps this is different in Nova? It really stinks that it isint in EV/O, though. Realisticly, you wouldn't be able to hire a government escort in that fashion.

Thanks for your help. I'll try giving the ships mission bits, that should easily solve the problem.
