Sensor mystery

Well, I´m sure that I have Passive5 sensors in my inventory. However, I cannot mount them on my ships! It seems that the game is full of little bugs that may, or may not show up, for example, I got Patcom with A-M beams as its standard equpment last time I played the game.

....i have never experienced anything like that.

I've found all sorts of little glitches, but usually it's in the navigation code, stuff like the autopilot ramming ships as it moves you through an L-point, or mission scripts that take you to the wrong place unless you pick L-points or waypoints manually.

Once you learn your way around, though, these issues become moot, since flying through L-points manually is much faster than waiting for the autopilot to do it.

I've never seen the problem you're describing, though.

Then I have to assume that it´s one of these mysteries that appear only on my computer:)

not sure for this:

A-M Beams are available only in the last two/three scenarios and may need some internal space.
Smith creates them for your loadout as a gift. Maybe it's a reward for a 100% job and you missed it somehow?

Passive Sensors 5 should be mountable. Do you play the game with any mods running? Some of them cause problems.





There is no safe distance

The mods I´m running are Multimods, Unigui, iFleet, FutureTrader, Crosshair, CustomJafs, FreeForm. That´s all. Oh, and one more strange thing -- I assembled a little fleet with iFleet mode, about 20 ships, but on one beautiful day they kinda deserted -- they just weren´t there anymore, although i hadn´t switch the mod off.
