Do you have any other bays that use that animation. If you do, it won't work consistently.

Got some bad news for ya V2K...each one of those bays needs it's OWN animation slot if you want Auto bays to work properly on each of them.

 

Which means you need 6 available animation slots.

 

Other options include making some of them manual bays so you can combine slots. Or, if you can find a way to combine some of the slots (have multiple AttachmentPositions for a single weapon station).

 

If you're still at a loss...give me til tonite and I'll send you my XF-103 as an example.

you mean each bay door ?

[FastCargo 412]

Specifically, you need each weapon station to have it's own animation. If 2 weapon types share the same bay, you have to have them on the same weapon station entry...with it's own animation. More than one weapon can share a moving pylon (like a rocket pod), but again, it's own weapon station entry is needed).
