Objects are ships, waypoints, jump nodes, nav buoys, and lone asteroids. (Lone asteroids are rare; you'd usually use the asteroid field editor to produce an area full of asteroids.) The difference between "marked" and "selected" is subtle: you can only have one object selected, but you can have several marked. Also, beware that FRED does not always use these terms consistently. There is a strong temptation (especially if you've just watched Return of the Jedi or certain episodes of Babylon 5) to build an enormous battle with dozens of capital ships. Don't go overboard; the mission will take too long to play, even the fastest machine will slow to a crawl, and FreeSpace may even crash. Your missions should be on the same scale as the official ones. |
