Who is Terek?

[erik dela cruz]

I'm playing v104 again with the Network mod. After slaving Korolov missions(which I love by the way) I checked my stats to find an achievement saying Helped Terek escape. Who or where or how did I actually help that dude?

[shanejfilomena]

no clue , the name is in none of my data bases ( 1.01, 1.05 1.06a ) but would appreciate a copy of 1.04 : i lost mine in a computer device disruption by the Ventari
( I blew the dust out of it and when I started it it thought it was 2006..the computer was made in 2009 )

That was The Network. Somehow, you found a prison system and helped him get out of it.

Actually, the name of the man that you bust out of jail is Trent, and the Helped Terek Escape achievement appears before you free Trent. With that and Trent's really buggy AI that doesn't listen to the commands I give to him half the time, I just figured he had several glitches all over the place.

Here's my initial stats to further illustrate it:

ACHIEVEMENTS & REGRETS

Destroyed the Fortress in the Charon system
Helped Terek escape

FRIENDLY STATIONS DESTROYED

Korolov Shipping 1

As you can see I even destroyed the Korolov shipping station in Charon without my knowledge(I suspect one of my autons or Volkov himself did).
I wish I can recall the encounter where I actually freed this Terek character.

I'm sorry, I need to fix that in the Network. Originally, his name was Terek, but I changed it to Trent. I messed up somewhere in the achievements.

[shanejfilomena]

LOL i love the achievement regardless.....looks awesome in the stats

Eh Drako I'm really interested in this. Can you tell us the original plot for the Terek/Trent escape? Sounds intriguing.

[Drako Slyith]

Really I programmed what I planned, except for the name. You help him steal a visiting admiral's private ship and help him break out of New Alcatraz. I messed up on the achievements, but other than that it seems to work.

New Alcatraz....hmmm. PRISON BREAK! Should his name be Michael whatshisname again? Hhehe. Just kidding.

No, I didn't think I got to notice a penitentiary there. Maybe I'd check again when I get lots of trans-space gems.

I'm currently playing the Network on T105 and I have another weird post on my stats regarding Terek/Trent again:

ERIK

Commonwealth militia rank Colonel
Domina relationship Canon
Genome Human male
Korolov rank Legend
Money (credits) 178,197
Score 120,785
Ship class Wolfen II-class gunship

ACHIEVEMENTS & REGRETS

See what I mean, I saw the New Alcatraz System but I already lost Terek even without meeting the poor fella.

[erik dela cruz]

Hey Drako I just bolted Trent out of the New Alcatraz prison a few hours ago but it was not posted in my stats.
It's still the same stats as above.

[erik dela cruz]

Oh boy I lost Trent.....

Still no change in my stats though. I wish to ask why Trent's acted like a zoanthrope. I wished to just command him to wait for a while but the Q or wingman command don't work for him, it seems. Drats.

[erik dela cruz]

I played again after my fateful gamecrash. I lost Trent again and here he is:

Oops. Sorry I double attached Trent. My bad.
