Ships
- Added the ability to rescue any crew, that were on board the player's ship when it was destroyed, from the insurance screen.
- Rebuy cost in the right hand cockpit panel now includes cost to rescue crew.
- Crew rebuy costs rebalanced based on Beta feedback.
wait.... WHAT!??
You mean we can actually hire a lowly weak commander and raise them up to max and not loose them if we loose our ship as long as we can cover the insurance?
Do my eyes deceive me?
... O M G ! ! ! ! There is yet hope! I know, I am late to the party on knowing this I am sure, but I didn't pay any attention to the Beta and I've been playing 'other space games', and was curious to what Elite had in store for 2020. (was still salty after September.)
What did they send us? Hope.
(only been years, but I guess better REALLY late then never ever.)
I guess that kind of makes those NPCs more partners now, adds a little depth to it more then just throw away chaddle now.
Best News I've heard on this game in a while, The other fixes are nice as well. Sad there's no real 'new content', but maybe later in the year they'll make up for it? maybe, hopefully....
But this is a good start for 2020. I'll take it. Cheers!
