Sad landlubber question (how complete Nav Mission)

lhughes41 · 01-17-11, 08:02 PM

Sorry to start with such a lame question. I am trying to do SHIII. I cannot seem to complete the 1st navigation mission. I achieve all goals and told as soon as I surface I am done. I surface. Nothing happens. If I hit 'esc' and quit mission that doesn't seem to be the right thing to do (or was it somehow?). I did some surfing and looking at FAQs:
1) Did in "exam" mode
2) Put engine at full stop

How do I in fact succeed in this silly mission? I've done it 4 times now and can't complete (or not sure if I have).

Sorry.

See my answer in your post in the Comments To Subsim forum - but in short, as soon as get the message that you successfully completed your objectives, you can hit Esc and "abandon" the mission. It's okay because you've done everything you were sent out there to do. The "abandon" part always confused me as well... but there's no "return to base" option in the Academy tests because you didn't start at base, you just got plopped down in the middle of the action. I think the Single Missions work the same way as well.

You're welcome!

Sadly, I'm afraid that all your future questions will be answered only with the phrase "Use the Force, Luke!" I apologize in advance for this unfortunate reality, however this is Teh Internets and there's a law.

And that's if you're lucky...
