ATTN Firesoul or Evil Dave!

Do the ED missions read the Client side or Server side shiplist when generating AI?

I believe it is the server side because when I made the change to the K-DWP on the server side shiplist (giving it 4 PFs instead of 2) AI DWPs now have 4 PFs.   If the missions were reading my Client-side list, they would only have 2 PFs as no change has been made there.

I'm farily certain the EEK missions read the Client list and not the Server list.  I've PM'd Karnak for a reply

It depends. A drafted ship would be from the server-side shiplist.  If the game drafted AI (an Icon for the AI is actually placed on the hex while the mission runs), then you're correct. Supplemental ships needed in some missions, however, are created locally.

.. a good example of those would be some orions, I believe. Or the O-DEF platform during a Data Recovery.



.. so.. it depends.
