ASP Explorer Squadron paint job - NO LIGHTS!

Those are not lights, they are heat radiation panels. They are covered by protective plates when the ship is running cool, but if you build up some heat (fuel scooping is an easy way, as you mentioned), they'll automatically open and you can see the intense glow.

Search for some pics of the Cutter's heat radiators, very impressive.

EDIT: Attempting to post a pic of the Cutter's radiators (which was posted on these forums originally by 777 Driver):

If I go to the garage and ask them to repaint my car, I don't expect it to include "lights" unless I am buying a package that specifically states that lights are included... You bought some paint. Everything else is already on your ship. ;)
 
Hi Commanders,

This isn't the first time this has been mentioned when I did a quick search... https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...quadron-paintjob?highlight=asp+squadron+paint

I too am more than a bit disappointed that the photo representation for this skin shows a row of lights that are only lit when fuel scooping.

This is real world money we're spending on this game add-on.

Matt [blah]

Ermh....these "lights" are your heat radiators that open up if your ship gets hot. Every ship has their own radiators.

If you want that they are open all the time, than use heat focused rng-mods :D
Overcharge powerplant grade 5, dirty drives grade 5....etc.

Sry that you are disappointed but don't you think you should have taken a look at your ships BEFORE buying paintjobs?
 
Not too happy the onion head decals have changed to white on the cobra paint job though, they used to match to store picture. The decals are fine white on the other ships, but look poo in white on my subtle neon green smuggling ship :)
 
They are heat vents not lights. They open when your ship heats up (Therefore fuel scooping, etc) and they close when it cools down.

Probably a bit more research next time before ranting?

Now that you bring that up, what happened to that paint pack? I remember it having another paint job with a skull on it and now it's only one.

Is there any word on that?

Dunno, thought that was a bug cos it wasn't in the pack when I got it, but the paintjob turned into the green pirate one when they realesed the pirate pack, then it changed back to normal, didn't realise it got added, that's what happens when you play with settings after a few lavians.
