ERS-146

Okay, I realize that my flying skills are rustier than the surface of Mars, but I'm not sure if they are the problem. Here is my issue: I can't beat ERS-146 for XWA. I can wipe out all the fighters, the Cruiser, and the Corvettes just fine, but once I get back to the Chimera, I can't dock or end the mission, and the A-wings are handing my counter-measureless but to the SFO on a platter. So, what's the deal? Am I missing something? Shouldn't I just be able to fly to the Chimmy and hit space to end the mission? Am I expected to take on a squadron of A-wings and a flight of B-wings by myself?

If all mission goals are achieved(IE, it looks like Success) you can just press q and hit space.

All the mission goals were achieved, but it said "Status: Unresolved".

You have to destroy all those fighters.

Is there an easy mode?

Ofcourse there is an easy mode! An easy mode has been around since TF :p

Uh, I thought bonus goals were, you know, a bonus. Extra, optional. My primary goals were completed. It seems a little foolish to have mandatory extras.

In my case however, I left the difficulty level on high. Instead I flew ASAP into the Nemesis hangar. Once all the AWs waves got blasted by the ISD, I went out and finished off any surviving BWs :p

That was my plan, but when I tried to dock, I ended up floating through the Nemesis. When I emerged from the other side, I was hit by several missile strikes right in a row. But, maybe I'll try it again.

Dock? What the hell are you doing, man? :P You hit the space bar when the text 'Enter hangar' appears on the screen. Not shift+d dock.

Meh, you don't do either. You fly into the hanger physically and sit there. :P

They're not bonus goal. If they were bonus, they'd show up with (BONUS: # pts) next to it. They are Primary goals that should've shown up after the fighters hype in, but I ran out of time trying to make it work. The mission is completable, and that's what I had to leave it as.
