  • Am I missing something here?

    Ahhh yes, I have noticed this as well...


    When giving out money to a new character, despite level being increased,
    it was not recognized right away to purshase a ship and needed to relog to have level restriction removed.

    Quote from Ryleous Arkane (SA_ORION)

    Anyway, good work Faaby! I know you, Forlon and some other SA personnel have been working hard mapping systems and gathering info, I know you guys are happy to finally seeing the end of the tunnel and are almost finished. :) 8)

    hehe yes, this database has been a huge work... and I am glad to see it is online now! :)
    Very self rewarding!

  • little bug in Neophobos

    While mapping system Neophobos, I ran into some debris close to Planet Southport.
    When pointing my reticule on it the tag "police base" showed up (green reticule for me) but I
    was not able to select anything... By curiosity I shot at those debris and it immediately became
    red, this time the tag showing Pollux Battleship (?) under "Police base" tag.
    I then targeted Pollux Battleship (80K away) and it also conned red to me...


    Joining some pictures to try to make explanation clearer

  • Suggestions...

    About docking on Battleships:


    What would happen though if BS is destroyed?
    Can a docked player - assuming like in a docked station - be killed in same time (what about respawn point?) or forced to undock?
    or change system if the BS does?

    Quote from Shockwave

    Yeah. Imagine smuggling, and the cop sees you from across the system. Yay. :D

    But that cop would not have much offensive power by himself to disrupt smugglers, so would need backup.


    And seeing does not mean catching :)


    Anyway, since it is not possible, no need to start a debate...

  • help needed

    I am afraid this is normal (you can only use this gate to jump from Omega-3 to IC - and not the other way) and that you will need to head to DK systems, and find the exit to Altair regions...

  • help needed

    Some hypergates are only one way! If you get lost, you can find some maps here in the download section ^^ Good exploring in any case!

    Looks very interesting to me StephanoV :)


    Like a ship class similar to those radar airships



    Would be very usefull tactically in engagements indeed

  • I am starting to get upset

    Quote from Michael


    seems I also had simple CTD today, as well as 2 other ASF players (not sure about CSF ones) once mainly while docking, right after the black screen when the next one is getting loaded.

    I crashed twice to desktop during ASF/CSF, right when clicking on "respawn" button after dying... never happened to me before.
    I had very bad ping at that moment though, so maybe it is related...



    [edit: a 3rd time it worked, though the message "please wait, this operation is taking longer than expected, use ESC to cancel" showed up
    for a few seconds]

  • Character affiliations troubles

    I have been trying for a while now to obtain the "ASF" affiliation on my character,
    but either I am doing something wrong, either I do not get how it works...


    I was "Navy" with ASF being in second position (maxed), so I thought by killing a few
    navy guys, ASF would take over the first position



    Reputation of navy was decreasing but would not lower down... I was told to try to kill
    some more as the affiliation seems to need to go down 3 or 4 bars before being switched.
    I tried it, and I did lose Navy affiliation, but it was replaced by "Kusari Nany" ( that came from nowhere???).
    To see what would happen, I killed a few Kusari police to get rid of this affiliation, and in the end it
    was replaced by.... Navy (which was way down the list after this mess) *sigh*


    Back to square one... (and ASF faction still remains on 2nd... and I must have killed like 2,000 CSF by now)


    You guys have any trick to obtain the affiliation of your choice?
    Thanks

  • What do you think about Wikileaks...?

    All countries spy and lie, this is the "diplomatic" hypocrite game...
    So there is nothing really surprising about digging out "durty" notes.


    What I find interesting is what a country can call a secret "national security" document though:
    Something to protect citizens, army, spys, etc... or rather to protect just a few top "heads"?


    Taking for granted official sources is being "blind" and other sources are needed if truth
    is wanted.


    Sometimes official explanations do not make sense (or they really take us for idiots),
    and that's when citizens start asking questions, involving dangerous answers.



    When it is unclear, you just need to find other ways (sadly classic medias cannot be trusted either nowadays)

  • Mining Development

    I was wondering if it would not be interesting to see if any possibility to increase the number of mining areas (maybe open it in Altair, or
    even IC to make it more "interesting" and "spicy").


    I do not think mining is used much currently, and I think it is too bad it is not "rentable" enough to be an alternate choice to trading...
