They should mostly be fixed from the first 3 patches for version 3.0 of conquer. A number of other bugs with the ships should be fixed with the most recently posted patches (4 and 5). I have yet to fully test the ships myself, but I believe that you need to have marines on a ship in order to land the ship in enemy territory. I haven't looked at the code to verify it, but it is mentioned in the helpfile. From what I have done in testing, it seems as though you also need a certain number of movement points to be able to land (although I am uncertain about this). adam bryant -- Adam Bryant || ARPANET: adb@buengc.bu.edu 915 Beacon St. Apt #1 || BITNET: adb@buenga engb0du@buacca Boston, MA 02215 || UUCP: ..!harvard!bu-cs!bucsb!adb (617) 424-9597 || CSNET: adb%buengc@bu-cs
