    The information is not outdated.

    You do, however, need to complete the previous build missions first (comps/weapons/engines). After that, it is pretty easy. Both my JE and JS have the skill so it works for both although JE one is easier to get :)

    Perhaps it is now out dated. I have a JS that has all build skill except reactors and he is waaaay over level 60. He doesent really need it, but wanted to get the skill anyway.

    The Getco Mechanic is not on Ishuan station. Where is he currently?

    Thanks

    Yeah, currently no use - but i think they are supposed to give RD faction? Or was it the "figurine" (supposed to) giving faction on turn in?

    Now there is an idea!! "Half eaten spacesuits" for the RD leader to give you faction, FTW!

    Especially now that BBW access is now +2000....

    Thanks for the replys, I have been incommunicado for the past week...

    @ Kyp - If you can't do anything about it, I completely understand the reason why. In order to run the other clients "under different credentials in Windows" are you referring to TraderMagoo's post here? [url="https://forum.enb-emulator.com/index.php?/topic/6404-net7configexe-for-running-custom-resolutions/"]https://forum.enb-emu...om-resolutions/[/url] I am going to try that at first chance.

    @ Sleven - You are probably right, I think I was remembering Win XP and not Win 7 I am now running.....

    @ Aviator - I have looked thru TraderMagoos's post and I think that may be my answer. He really knows His stuff and with the laymans directions he gives I think I can follow them.

    Much appreciation to all ;)

    Ooo, more stuff to try....

    @ Redoc - I haven't tried that, but as i recall it is iffy for me to get the window to pop back up, and if you have 3 clients open already, it might be a bit of a chore to do....

    @ shadrel - I tried your tip and it seemed to be better, making abosulutely certain that I did not press anything that was over a client window, keeping my cursor completely still after pressing play. I got 10 clients open (just for testing purposes), the first 3 on one hit, then no more than 3 tries for the rest of them. Later on I tried it again and had much worse results It took half an hour to get 4 clients up. Apparently my testing can only be antecdotal and not empirical.

    @ Lot - Ahhh, glad to see that I am not crazy on the repeating popup. As for the orphans you speak of, I [i][b]always[/b][/i] kill them when I have 2 in a row, (we dont need any errant processes mucking about) and still I got 27 that time *sigh*.

    I did read the rest of your post, very slowly, repeatedly and mouthiing the words for fuller comprehension :huh: and I think you might be on to something, if as you say, TB is using the old process you have to review. The phrases that stood out to me are "a bit chancy", "Russian Roulette', and my favorite "Randomly searching for a client by window title means the proxy might find the wrong client to modify!"

    I realize and appreciate that this effort is all volunteer (Thanks guys! I love playing this game) and I know that not all players Multi Box, but with the cadre of Hardcore players and the availability of multiple and free accounts, there might be a need, at some point down the line, to address this.

    Yes, this is a tiny, littile thing, but perhaps the powers that be may consider putting it on the bottom of the list.

    Thanks for all of you that make this happen! ;)

    Thanks guys,

    @ Evermore - Yup, got more than one account and never try to login on the same one twice.

    @ Zackman - Agreed, not an account issue. If it is a client issue, well then it cant be changed. It did not happen at all during 'Live' I had 4 accounts running on the same comp back then and NEVER gave me that message then, only now in the emulator.

    Two or Three tries?!? God I wish! My currrent all time record is 27 tries :blink: and I STILL didn't login, I just gave up :mad: And if it pops up the first time, it seems more likely that it will happen again and again. It is either boom! right in, or a test of wills to see who gives up first. A dozen times or more is not uncommon, and [u][i]the more clients I have open, the more likely it seems to happen.[/i][/u]

    @ drjeff - I envy you, only a few times ^_^ If it was only a few times, I wouldnt be writing this :unsure:

    @ Lot - Wow! Dude, you know way more about programming than I do. I read that last paragraph about 5 times and my head still hurts. But I kinda get your drift. Clearly, it would take better minds than mine to help with this.

    This is really not a game killing, or life threatening problem, I just thought there was something I could do to help get in when this happens, perhaps something I didnt know about that would work better :huh:

    Thanks for trying tho ;)
