First, let me say "Thanks for the pack!!" I assume you are not supporting the pack as you are doing mombot.

Second, while this is a bug report, I am including the fix I used so you dont have to do an update or anything.

When running this I had been stopped at the nav prompt (ie 'y' from the command prompt)

I think I traced it to this section, there are three or four in the script
Code:
send ($result&"  *  J Y ")
         waitfor "Are you sure you want to jettison all cargo"
         return


everywhere I found this I removed the 'Y" and it worked like a charm from there on out.

Code:
send ($result&"  *  J ")
         waitfor "Are you sure you want to jettison all cargo"
         return


My question is: Have I screwed up something else by doing this?

That J Y macro is used to jet anything in your holds, probably before you get ore and warp to dock or something. If it's getting stuck at a navpoint prompt then for some reason the J happened at the wrong prompt, or at the wrong place.

The question then is... why? Was it because it happened at the wrong prompt? If so, a prompt synch qqqqz* would fix it. If, on the other hand, it simply stopped because it tried to jet in fedspace (lol) then just doing something like " j y * " would work best since an enter will clear the navpoint prompt.

I suppose it's also possible that after the return another Y is sent somehow. Why? I don't know. But that's easy to fix... just remove one of the Y's or add an * after the last one.

Anyway the point of J Y then the waitfor is clearly to jet and wait for the jet to complete, the question is... why is it getting stuck at the nav point?

Strangely enough it seems to happen regularly AFTER twarping back to the sector from furbing at dock. All I have to do to clear it is press 'Q U Y' and its off and running again. This happens whether I am playing red or blue.

I prefer using this now that LS added Organic and Equip products to the script because mombot pimp seems to get mugged at dock more than I would like.

Ok, so what prompt is it hanging on then? Obviously it's waiting for planet pop text... but what prompt does it hang on?

Hrm, looking thru the script... not sure why it's doing that. Probably something with the macro buffer.

Try this:

Around line 684...

Code:
:Sector_Gas_Good2
   killAllTriggers
   send "Y   *  J   Y  "
   waitfor "Are you sure you want to jettison all cargo"
return


Change to....

Code:
:Sector_Gas_Good2
   killAllTriggers
   send "Y   *  J   Y  *  "
   waitfor "Are you sure you want to jettison all cargo"
   waitfor "Command [TL="
return


See if that helps.

Also make sure you don't have something like swath autocomplete on or anything that might autocomplete the Yes to the twarp, as that could be sending an extraneous Y.

I will give it a shot, thanks for the hint about swatch, I almost always have the bulb on.

Edit: Sing, you hit the nail on the head. It was the Darn light bulb
