Lets test this persistent universe and see if FD are true to their word.

Ok guys, I just want to announce that there is going to be an important meeting on team speak tonight at 10pm GMT.

This will be to discuss the naming of the planet Lugh 6.

I have several ideas and want to run them past people and would be delighted to hear any good ideas you might have.

FD have contacted me on this as it was one of our requests and have agreed. Lugh however, is a system where figureheads have no administrative power. Laws are made by the people and so we will begin as we mean to go on. This decision shall be no different. So if you want to have an input log onto TS tonight and join the discussion. I had considered running a poll but then decided this method was better as it is the players who have shaped the Lugh system who should make this decision not just random traffic on the forum.

I hope to see/hear you all there :)
I won´t have a chance to play tonight because i got Visitors to play a bit of several lan games. However i am sure that you Guys will find an apropriate Name. Also i really aprecciate the oportunity that FD gives us here. Really great. Thumbs up FD!
 
At this stage the faction doesn't have a station.

Too bad. This way you cant do trading and exploring. If the faction is an independent faction, you wont be able to bounty hunt either.

That leaves mission running and killing other faction's ships, which is a grind even with maaany people.

If you are alone, either get help or get out and search a better target. We can do stuff like that at AEDC, but we avoid it unless reasons.

I don't quite understand what you meant by not being able to bounty hunt. On a slightly separate note it is an alliance faction.

We found a bug with conflicts (war, elections and civil war) not resolving correctly - winners weren't being picked. We deployed a hot fix last night and today's background sim run has provided some winners so this look sto be fixed.

Factions gain influence when you redeem bounties issued by them or by the major faction they are affiliated to, IIRC. But a faction can issue bounties only if it is the controlling faction of a system. So there is no way to increase the rep of an independent faction which is not in control of its system through bounty hunting, as they're neither affiliated to a major faction nor able to issue their own bounties.

did you think about doing this before i suggested it on here (and later on TS) a couple weeks ago, or was i the catalyst for renaming? cause that would be nuts! either way, it's another super cool guy move from FDev and i'm excited to be a part of it!

Well, I did approach Michael about renaming the stations in the Lugh system months ago but yes, you certainly were the catalyst for changing the names of planets :)

Minor independent faction will hardly issue any bounties, and wont accept bounties from other systems. Minor faction without station will not be able to receive exploration data or trading profits.

If you like playing influence games for the alliance, check us out.

I'm afraid my current slowdown is going to have to be a longer hiatus.

My wrists hate me. :(

Not that I blame them. ;) Twenty years ago, I managed to give myself a nasty case of tendinitis by playing Ultima Online way too much. To this date, every so often I have to take a two week break from gaming to give them a rest. I had been hoping that by alternating between Elite Dangerous (HOTAS) and other games (keyboard and mouse) I might be able to slow down the inevitable, but it isn't working. :(

So it's time to step away from the computer, get some new Anime and a few novels, and try to ignore the itching from my wrist splints.

Remember kids: when playing games, take frequent breaks, and for the love of God, posture matters! :eek:
 
I will not be able to join the TS discussion as sound for both Elite and TS have stopped working about 2 weeks ago. Still cant find anyone who can be to help me.
 
Did that. Didnt work. At this point i'm considering full windows installation.

Does anyone know of a system (not a founders system) that has all the outfitting gear? Dont care where it is, i have a fuel scoop.
