I guess some of you also play Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude with this wonderful mod. While I never had problems using this mod in TC, AP isn't that cooperative.

Does anyone here know why the most of the SCS hotkeys are not listed in the options menue? I cannot use the SCS without having the key to open the SCS menue. The mods is installed correctly ( X Mod-Manager ) but the keybindings option only shows the key for capturing the enemy ship (which even doesn't work). When I use the hotkey, I get informed about this feature is related to a plot mission. How that?

Anyone knows what to do? Did I something wrong? :C

Just remap the hotkey to another key. I've not started a new SCS based game in a while. But it is my favourite script :) Occasionally I have hit little bugs but usually only after I tried other scripts.

That's the problem: There is no option to remap the key.

The only two options are to remap the detector mode (put it silent) and capture abandoned ship. :/

Use the menu to find the page.. Command Console / Special / Access SCS

I didn't explain properly... what I did was remapped a keyboard key to generate the access macro - it's been so long since I played on this machine I have forgotten the mapping I used :)
but any key that you have not remapped in X3 will do. You can then add the key with the macro to one of the X3 menus.

It looks like your bindings all need sorted. Usually I don't bother unless I am playing a game a lot.

A good way to see what bindings are operating is to note the blue character on the menu. Each menu can be accessed by pressing the key with the number shown... so you can program in a sequence of keys to generate the sub menu you are looking for.

Once you create a key with the right macro you can tell X3 to use one of the spare bindings to call it up

Eg you make a macro in your keyboard for a subn menu sequence and assign it to a key you don't use. Like say Alt-Ctrl-S

Then you bind a spare X3 key to Alt-Ctrl-S

So in the end you only need press one key. Just pick one you know you won't have remapped already in X3.
