Had to stop engineering because I tested a weapon maybe 10m inside the no fire zone.

The NFZ notification for me is always persistent in my my chat window. If it disappears and I need to check I just open chat and see.

I vaguely remember getting vox from the ATC saying something like "Warning, Commander. You are within the security perimeter. Safe your weapons immediately" when I rolled out eh hardpoints in the NFZ one time, but I could easily be imagining it. It was a while ago and the memory is very vague.

If I was imagining it, adding it would probably be a good thing.
If I wasn't, bringing it back and making it always trigger would also be a good thing.

I get that all the time when I scan a wake on my way out of mass lock. As luck would have it, my store is inventorying today, so I haven’t been able to play due to my “weekend” shifting forward a few days, and a very long shift yesterday, so 8 can’t confirm that this is still the case, but I doubt that has changed.

There was no bug, the system works as intended (with unfortunate side effects).

The issue is that some starports do NOT have security contact - this is definitely the case with most engineer bases and stations under repair. For engineers, only the ones that accept bounties for gaining rank have security contact.

If you have a fine and happen to be in a station that doesn't have a security contact, there is no way to pay and you get locked out of almost all services, including refuel.

Awwwww, dammit. That's a shame.

To be fair, the 'No fire zone left' notification should be pretty fullproof as long as you don't mix up which message is the last one - the latest messages are always at the bottom. So you should be able to always tell whether you're in the NFZ or not.

Crossing my fingers hoping I never mess that up :D

i think one of the issues in this particular case,
is that there may not be a "contacts" menue point at every engineer base.

without access to the station security, you cant pay off any fine.

and sandro.
quick check your notoriety level!

how many clicks and pages scrolling does it take?

I've just been at Bill Turner and he had a Contacts menu, and so does Selene Jean - for the other engineers, not sure yet.

However, there's been a separate mention of bugs where you couldn't pay off fines at security contacts or bounties at interstellar factors - those would definintely be bugs, since that's supposed to be how you get rid of fines and bounties to restore non-anonymity and service access.

There is, you get a message when you leave the no fire zone. You can check the comms panel anytime to see if the message is there, if it isn't you are still in the no fire zone.
