Thanks for this event.
Due "some" Nomads in Styx I lost a lot of time and reached system in Hieron when event finished.

May be more luck tomorrow

Hey Bro, i want to try to start from Tonga today ... definitely the 1 hour time limit can be achieved ... yesterday, i just need another 3-4 mins extra, in order to complete the whole systems ...

Quote from The Original

definitely the 1 hour time limit can be achieved

May be when you know all Jump holes and Jump gates and have no Nomads who wants to kill you (Fighters, Bombers and Interceptors. After I killed them 3 Nomads Battle Ships and one Lich reached the system).

Todays tour could be a bit difficult to visit all systems.... or I missed Omicron "Major" completely so far(?)

.... should have connection to Nomads Lair ... according to storyline .... maybe a 'spelling' error and Omicron Minor is meant (jump from there to Nomads Lair to obtain the power cell in vanilla SP) ?

But jump between Omicron Minor and Nomads Lair is blcoked in MP... we will see if Minor gives a reward this evening

Nobody never found Omicron Major ??? ... hehehehe

Well - tried Omicron Minor and Outer Dyson Sphere... none of them was Omicron Major...

Rest of the systems gave reward, tour couldn't be joined earlier, "special-reward" still remains for testing... but it looks like it's working fine now. What was the planned reward again? Will it stick at 1mio/system?

Tour today started in Death Valley - Nomads Lair - X-3043 - Omicron Alpha - then straight to Altair Kalinin...

However, first 3 systems (Death Valley, Nomads Lair, X-3043) didn't give a reward, from Omicron Alpha on it worked. So final reward for visting all systems still needs to be tested...

I'm not sure if this tour can be made with a VHF... maybe BS is needed for higher speed on cruise.

Tour today worked perfect.

- It wasn't possible to otain reward prior to start
- All systems gave reward when Tour was active
- Special-reward for visiting all systems was a Codename Mk2 - Gun

As additional info: Tour was very hard to make within 1h in a VHF. Did fast-dock everywhere and flew Tau-Systems by hand very close to sun, same for Astros in Sovetskaya and Tomsk. Finished with tour active for further 15sec. Original did Tour in a BS - probably the better choice for this one (think he was 5mins prior the end)

Edit: Tour was the one from Death Valley to Gagarin

today's tour worked perfect. all systems gave reward after starting time

I flew a Battleship because this tour went through alot of systems with alot of cruising
I'm not sure it could be done in a fighter today, I had only 3 minutes left (in BS)
tour was Scotia, Pretoria, Spica, Jokusuka, Hieron, Gurm, Sovetskaya, Vorkuta, Yakutsk,
Unknown, Omicron Gamma, Omicron Theta, Omicron Alpha, X-3043, Tarsus, Far Point, Vega, Seltos

(I used shortest possible route for X systems, jumping into each system from X-3043 and back, finished in Far Point)

Are the announcements working prior start?

No - never seen an announcement in chat...

Tau-23
Tau-31
Leeds
Dublin
Hyperion
Sol
Styx
Mandar
Gurm
Sovetskaya
Tomsk
Kalinin
started in Alpha, jumped to X after start time, no reward. Jumped back to Alpha, got reward.
Jumped to X and Alpha again, still no reward

when you have tagged the system once you dont get the reward again.

Then there is maybe a problem when joining the tour prior to announced start and visiting the systems *before* tour starts.

As written here: Tour de Universe
I think I made /jointour before tour had started in Arena, then moved through X-3043 and Nomads Lair, jumping one time into Death Valley to see if reward is paid before tour starts, then jumped back to Nomads Lair and waited at the jumpgate until tour started. However, I didn't get a reward for Death Valley, Nomads Lair and X-3043 *after* tour had started.

Could it be that that is the scenario causing problems with reward?

When I remeber correctly, the time tour worked for me, I flew to Nomads Lair, joined tour there and jumped into Death Valley after tour had started....

Thanks for your effort!

could be, gonna have a look into it this evening

I used /jointour in omicron alpha, before jumping to X-3043 (and it said I was succesfully registered)
I didn't get reward for X-3043. then I jumped back to alpha and got a reward for that.
I jumped back to X-3043 to see if I'd get a reward (I didn't) and then continued from omicron alpha.
all systems tagged succesfully after that
from my past experiences, registrations fail in story related systems and in X-3043. maybe it has something to do with different versions of these systems?

should not in mp as you are in the default systems and not in the story systems.
