Mercenaries of Mikunn - The Background Simulation and Colonization Test

I saw this a few weeks back, but due to time constraints I was unable to join then and there. Glad to see this is still going, and now you can count me in this! I'm already in Mikunn doing combat mission in a Viper. Anything else I should be doing? And also, where is the nearest outfitting yard with good array of equipment that I can use? It was my understanding that the shipyards in HR would only help our enemies, and not the dukes.
Basic outfitting and shipyard at Kwatee - Herreshoff Gateway, next high-tech stop @ Mapor - Clayton Horizons
 
To follow up my earlier post. Stations do remain neutral when your scanned and attacked by system authority vessels patrolling outside. This means its easy to access Hiraga station. The patrolling ships will begin strafing at you but the station doesn't open fire. Relatively easy to just fly in the slot and ignore the ships.
 
Here is a list of my trade stops for missions.
I do not use any trade tools, I am not looking to get rich.
I do not trade (buy/sell) in HR for obvious reasons.
I will adjust this list as time permits, if this list gets added to Com Watch, I'll delete if requested.

If this becomes more thorough and organized I will add it to the comWatch

Can you confirm your commander name or is it the same as the forum?

Stacking up outside the resource extraction site that a known criminal from the Dark Armada fled to. Note the low frequency FSD wake.
 
So testing the courier missions I found out something unfortunate.

When delivering a Mikunn to Mikunn mission from spassky's to gabriel, the result gave me + influence for the Dukes.... but only for the faction that has 100% influence in their system, which is of course Mikunn. The new mission board shows you the current influence amount of the faction you effected.

I repeated this two more times once at friend, and also once for a delivery mission.... Only helped the Dukes in Mikunn.


As a result a significant portion of the missions we are doing are not helping in HR 7327.

Well that's not good.

So the only missions that will boost our influence are the Duke missions you find in HR 7327?
 
Afternoon

I have been in the area of Mikunn for a few weeks now thouh the amount of time i have to play is rather limited up untill now I was just arsing around bounty hunting and a little trading mostly at random in and around Mikunn though mostly in Sukua(mosly hiding from the Feds...had a little accident with a poorly aimed rocket and an authority vessel and long story short Fed space is a no go for me atm). only in he last few days did a fellow CMDR bring your project to my attention after seeing my name mentioned in regard to interdicting some of your Mercs. (Id like to appologise for that I was bored and trying out an interdiction drive and CMDRs make better practice than random vessels).

Though I dont intend to "help" beyond that which I would be doing anyway to earn cash, now that I am aware what you are doing I will try not to do anything that will negativly impact the dukes. Though I doubt my actions up to this point has had any appreciable effect either way.

May the spirit of the Great Space Bear be with you.

We welcome people who just want to pass by and help too. Your name probably shouldn't have been mentioned but we welcome the occasional scrap so don't worry about it. We just try to keep track of who's interdicting us.

Accepted a mission in Gabriel for the dukes. Mission was applied to Dukes in Mikunn (100% influence) rather than Dukes in HR (29% influence). It would appear influence is still being applied to the wrong system.

Can other people check which Duke's are getting the influence buff on their missions? You should be looking for a report with a Dukes gain that have around 1/3 of the influence bar full.

Interesting. Were these courier missions, or commodity delivery missions? I'm curious if there's an effect. We suspect courier missions give less Influence. Maybe there's a minimum Influence Unit, and that can only go to one faction. Something to try would be to do a mission from Sukua or Kwatee to deliver to the Dukes of Mikunn in HR 7327.

It was kill authority.

I also tested with three courier before this, but I forgot to take photos. All four (three courrier and 1 kill authroity) went to the wrong faction. The three courier were out of Mikunn to the Dukes in HR and only helped Spassky's

Ooops, you are responding to a different post.

In total last night I did a series of tests on 1.1 including combat related ones.

The missions I tested were 1 kill authority, 2 courier, and 1 delivery.

All helped wrong Dukes, and the details are described above. If you still need clarification ask as I confused myself with what post you were responding to.

Nope. I'm clear on it. Dukes to Dukes missions only gave influence to Dukes of Mikunn IN Mikunn. I wonder if this is intentional, or a bug for having the same faction name in both systems. We may get an idea if we try doing missions from Kwatee to HR 7327, doing a Kwatee Union mission delivering to the Dukes of Mikunn in HR 7327. We'll see if Dukes of Mikunn, the recipient, gain any Influence.
 
Hello. I remember you. You are flying Cobra and Type 6:)

Indeed i am :) dont remember seeing you while in my T6 must have been sneaky :p currently saving for an asp almost got enough which is why for the moment I wont be really helpin the dukes (will make sure i dont hurt them though) maybe after i have it ill join your cause :)
 
Shouldnt the project be stopped until the major bugs are fixed bei FD? I mean it seems rather futile! There seems to be one bug after another!
