I was sat outside Ethegreze last night just watching traffic and saw something similar to that. Quite a few of the smaller NPCs queue jumping.
I do hope that is a game improvement FD intended, either that or their AI engine is getting a mind of it's own. Humans Beware! ;)
 
Sorry, but apostrophes are used to show possession not just abbreviation. Please learn some grammar before calling people out.


Nice work on the patch! Thanks for fixing the annoying issue where the FSS attack you for bounty hunting!

Nope. "its" is a pronoun, like "his" or "hers" in this case. No apostrophe. One does not type, "It was her's."

Congrats on the latest patch FD! While I think your holiday was too short, I'm glad you're back in town. Hoping the mission consequences will get the Dukes of Mikunn's influence increasing again. Long live the Dukes!
 
No change to police instantly aggroing and applying a bounty even though they fly through my beam? This wastes so much of my time having to go back to pay bounties off.
 
I have two accounts, I bought a second copy as an add-on in the kickstarter. It's a bit inconvenient as every time I switch form one to the other I have to type in an emailed authentication code. I should ticket that, I suppose.


I agree. My wife, my daughter and I each have an account. I should only need to validate a PC once for each account.... the same as Steam.
 
I was wondering why the police kept attacking me when shooting a target that shows up as Wanted. Great fix as I am a bounty hunting explorer. Now all you have to do is fix when attacking a wanted pirate and his wanted friends turn red and start attacking you if you destroy your main target and then lock on to one of the other hostile targets and fire before the scan completes you get an Assault fine even though when the scan finally completes it says they are wanted as well. I have deduced from their red signal on my radar that they were wanted after attacking the first wanted target. I don't need a scan to tell me that. You basically get an assault charge just because you hadn't confirmed they were wanted even though they are wanted and attacking them should not incur a fine whether you've completed your scan or not.

Good work on the update none the less. Any ETA on fixing the galactic core areas? Really want to journey there but after reading how broken it is I decided to go to the Horsehead Nebula and Barnard's Loop first. :) Should keep me busy for awhile.

I recognized an increase in police aggression towards wanted criminals like me, they harass me now non stop in the 'roids.
Sooner or later that asteroid belt will be a ship graveyard.
At least they no longer send viper after viper, but a wing for investigation after the first one is down.
Anyway i will stripmine their hulls if they come n chase me;)

My laptop won't even let me run the launcher if the launcher was left open on my main computer. Almost seems like you couldn't play two accounts at the same time using two different computers connected to the same router. Is that the case with your family or are you all able to play at the same time in one household? I did copy the game files from my main computer to my laptop to save bandwidth. Maybe that has something to do with my situation. It has kept me from purchasing a second account for friends to play on for the time being.

No, the are now sending multiple Anacondas to see you behave! :D
 
During the latest update I am getting an error that says.

"Unhandled exception during project update:
Index was outside the bounds of the array."

Tried re-installing but keeps coming up with the same error. anyone got a solution?

I support their decision to keep this. If you're in a dogfight as a private citizen, you need to watch your fire. The law still applies to you, even if you're helping take down criminals. "Sorry officer, I only shot you a little," isn't a viable excuse.

THAT SAID, I'd love for an option to pay off fines and small bounties without actually going to a station. If your bounty is under, say... 1,000 credits, I'd like to be able to go into my transactions tab and pay it off immediately and have the police stop attacking me.
 
Why are there authority ships in a system with no authorities? That seems strange to me. Are you sure that you are in an anarchy zone?

Pretty sure. I had the galaxy map filtered to anarchy. i think it was called something like Unkuar. But really all the resource belts i've found so far have the same behavior. There were maybe 5-10 green ships flying around.

Just because you assume someone is a criminal doesn't make them a criminal. You need confirmation. I take that as part of the responsibilities of being a bounty hunter. You're held to a higher standard. You want to kill people and not get in trouble for it? You better make sure they're wanted, beyond a shadow of a doubt. Criminals get the ability to strike first, at the cost of being criminals. Makes sense to me.
 
One last thing. Is there a fix for the constant default forward cockpit view single frame flashes experienced while head tracking using the FreeTrack protocol in the works? I have tried everything I can think of in the game's settings as well as FreeTrack's settings and I still experience frame glitches which sometimes causes me to go to silent running and drop my shields in the middle of a dogfight because I was trying to switch menu tabs while looking at it using head tracking. Quite the dangerous glitch. :/ As of yet it hasn't cost me a ship although it has cost me a few bounties.
 
Something I would like to see in a future update: Being able to switch your ship with items in the hold. It would be really nice to be able to dock my trade ship and switch to my fighter while waiting for stocks to replenish instead of having to log out and check back in periodically. Seems kind of counter productive to force your players to quit the game to wait for stocks to resupply.
