that would not work. Bounties and fines are tied to the ship you were flying when you commited the crimes.
Is it? Does turning oneself in also clear any and all fines one might have acquired along the way? I don't know the answer.
My plan is to have fun, darn the consequences...and certain "temporary" limitations make things...interesting...for a bit...Then your plan is to just ignore it and work around any inconvenience at the time.
At least the ones for the local jurisdiction... but the problem with that is that the game won't give you the option to turn yourself in if you only have fines with no bounties. It also won't let you pay the fines because you have notoriety. So the only real solution to clear them is to go suicidal on a station or security and let them kill you.
I remember when the fastest way to clear your bounty was to get intoa Sidewinder and Silent Running into the station, then undock and die
Forced you?
on my own doorstep?Even up to notoriety 10! Multiple times! Such a bad pest control officer.
Doing something other than murdering randoms is "Castigating"?
Only Lawful ones, if I am paying a courtesy visit to a settlement.
It clears any bounties relating to that controlling faction - useful because it means if you have notoriety and you do a few missions that would get you a bounty that would normally be inconsequential, like a trespass bounty, you're not locked out of that faction's stations until the notoriety runs out.
Hey, this is a cool idea right there!
I forgot i had notoriety until i went to pay a fine (which is a dumb bug FD need to fix still)Forced you?
I've cooled down fron Notoriety 10 more times than I care to think, yet have never been forced to have my PC on for 20 hours doing nothing. I just play, and resist the urge to murder further, it goes away soon enough.
Maybe it doesn't force me to waste energy because I don't
Yes it should be more obvious to a commander that they are now notorious, even if it only something on the main menu screen where they show you where you will be and whether docked etc.
If I were to use the "pad warming" method (which I have not yet done, since I'd rather fine ways to deal with notoriety using the in-game mechanics), I would set the resolution of the game to minimum (e.g.: 640x400), and switch the power plan of Windows and GPU to balanced or low.
I've actually done the resolution minimization in the past, but unfortunately it doesn't do much with the new client. ED of course is getting upset after running for 3 or 4 hours and then getting switched back to higher res again. It started to go all wonky with FPS in the single digits, so I had to relog it.
Single-digit FPS coming in and out, or persistent, is generally related to a lack of video RAM on your GPU (not the RAM of your system). Relog, or relaunch the game, does the trick as long as it does not happen during regular gameplay (I had this issue with Cyberpunk + these super high-resolution mods that I installed on top...the very reason I decided to buy a 4090).
That might bear the risk of bounty hunters dropping on you. Usually I have a bounty on me when the red digit goes on (some pathetic 10k or so).
I don't believe that happens when you drop out in the black, and fly 20 km from where you dropped.
I actually might, if the data loss is not too big. Credits are indeed no factor.Anyway, try it, money is cheap in ED
