Tractor Beam - Frank47_1999 - 01-18-2024
DO all fighters have a tractor beam? I'm currently using a Hammerhead very heavy fighter and when the B keyboard is pressed no tractor beam is being activated

It's possible you don't have an ID equiped. All IDs are tractor beams
RE: Tractor Beam - Frank47_1999 - 01-18-2024
ID equipped?
RE: Tractor Beam - Vulkhard Muller - 01-18-2024
Are you on the Discovery GC server? Or are you playing original Freelancer?

You cannot undock without an ID equipped. At least in Multiplayer. Are you sure you have enough cargo to tractor in whatever you're interested in?

Yes, I'm unable to tractor escape pods. I then changed ships now using a Falcon heavy fighter, went out and again the Loot symbol appears but pressing the traction (B) key nothing happens. I don't exactly wish to start from the very beginning and try again
I downloaded Discovery from the forum, started a new game and had a tractor beam, updating to a heavy fighter resulted i losing the tractor beam
Something else, going to multiplayer there's no listing of any servers
Did an experiment, I started a new game from the very beginning. Tractor beam works

Wait hang on, are you on the multiplayer server? Or in single player?
RE: Tractor Beam - Vulkhard Muller - 01-19-2024
Also, do you hear any sounds when you try to tractor?
RE: Tractor Beam - Aingar - 01-19-2024
Sounds like he plays on single player, bought a new ship and didn't re-equip their ID.

Yes, if you open Freelancer normally, after installing Discovery, you will not find any server when you go to multiplayer. You need to go to t=where you installed Disco, and open "DSLauncher". And open the game that way. Then, when you go to Multiplayer, you'll see the Discovery server
