Back in 2000 I requested a feature in Nova. Pleas see (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/webboard/Forum26/HTML/000604.html")http://www.ambrosias...TML/000604.html(/url) for the thread.
I've been attempting to get pilot files which haven't seen the introduction text to see the introduction text without success. What I mean by this is the following situation: 1.) Make sure you have a pilotlog.txt in your Nova folder. 2.) Make a brand new pilot in EVN. 3.) Immediately quit EVN after the pilot is made. 4.) Read the pilot log. It should indicate that the pilot has not seen the intro screen. 5.) Load EVN. 6.) Open the pilot file you just made. 7.) Go and read the pilot log. It should still say that the pilot has not seen the intro screen. 8.) CLick on Enter ship (or whatever that button says. I forget).
If you get the same results I do, you should go straight into your ship without seeing the introduction screen. Can others confirm this behavior?

I can confirm this behaviour on Windows EVN. Also, if I land and take off, my pilot log changes "Seen intro screen" from no to yes.

That is SOP. That's why, if you are playing non-strict and you get killed in space, you show up in orbit around the last spob you landed on when you reload that pilot.

SOP?
I know EVN saves your pilot file when you take off. That's why I tried it.
