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

I was approaching Balandin a little while ago and there was a dumb NPC Type 9 that got hung up under the cage. I stopped to watch thinking it surely would be entertaining. Somehow the thing turned wanted, it's shields going up and down, hull down to 13%.
i have to thank the CMDR in the Cobra who exploded just as my scan resolved into his name (didn't catch it). He must have thought it would be fun to shoot the now wanted T9 even though it was actually physically touching the station. The station retaliated. Entertaining indeed.

That's pretty much what happened to me a hour ago, i was approaching Baladin, and a Type 9 was banging against the front of the station and the side of the airlock's cage. So i approach cautiously, as i always do (i'm a very careful pilot) Then i enter the airlock and suddenly that huge thing slides through the cage and into the airlock, crushing my ship instantly.

3.6 millions of insurance down the drain...

I hope the type 7 Commander inside the station had a good laugh out of that!

If it's any comfort, docking is being worked on:

I'm sorry to report that the next release, version 1.1, will feature some fixes to AI orientation control that I've added, plus we've added some specific docking fixes. So there's a good chance AI docking and the docking computer is gonna soon be very boring... and just work properly. So sorry...

There is a lot of tourists out there tonight. Hopefully they are helping us. I converted two randoms one in a type 7 and the other in a viper tonight. Another big ship like that helping us is always a big bonus!

Returning to Lugh after a jaunt to the Coalsack nebula (felt the urge to do some exploring.) Can i get an update?

 

[Devil Tiger]

So...

Pretty busy night, apparently a bigger boom is imminent and, even more interesting, Civil War with the Lugh Defence Force seems to be brewing



I got a few assassination missions done, that was fun, a Lugh for Equality leader is dead and gone, as well as a couple Sesuang Purple Mob leaders.

More curiously, I was also tasked with terminating a guy who betrayed the Crimson State Group in favor of Lugh for Equality... That was a little strange, i stumbled on a bunch of LFE guys who told me where to find him, i blew up his fancy Orca and when i returned the mission the negative effect were applied to... Sesuang Purple Mob.
You got a vermin problem it seems!

 

[Nova McCool]

Yea the anti bounty hunter missions are not worth it, I'll just stick to hunting pirates from the purple mob or whoever the crimson state tells me to kill. Hell I can't even pick up illegal goods for the state in the state stations without losing status if I get scanned. I mean come on, if the crimson state needs me to pick up federation military plans and deliver them do I really need to smuggle them into our own station? I say B.S.

is there a station in lugh that is allied with CSG and also has a black market? if not, where is the closest one we can sell to without messing up rep?

and while we're on the subject, where is the closest RES? preferably one close to its sun, so the belt is lit

There is one allthough i don't know atm which one exactly because i don't trade on black Market. I believe it should be Hartsfield or Knights

Afaik no. Adamson has a black market.

knight doesn't have one and hartsfield isn't CSG. does trading at the black market at a non-CSG station hurt CSGs system rep?

adamson isnt CSG though, can we trade at that black market without messing up our rep %?

Truth is we don't know. It is not worth taking the chance. Go to Carey Dock in Sesuang. They have a black market.

Allright. It was just guesswork by me. Thx 4 clearing up.

The best one I've seen nearby is Eta Crucis - not tried mining there but great for combat training!

perfect, thanks. yeah, i didn't sell to a Lugh station just in case it turned out to be a problem (i would assume it ups the % of whoever owns the station, just like commodities/outfitting/shipyard)

 

[GrillMonkey]

On my way back from the North America Nebula will loads of exploration data for the CSG. Should be back some time tomorrow I guess.

Are you sure?
There only one negative effect, lockdown increase.
Rest are boom+ bust- influence+ reputaion+.

Mineral Oil, Bio-reducing Lichen and Aquaphonic Systems are bad, and still hurt's influence - checked after 1.0.5

This were the result i got before patch 1.05. Not testet it after patch release sorry and feel free to do this missions again as they seems to help us now.

 

[gmatagmis]

I see new questions about black market every day in this thread.
Let me share my expirience.
I did many smuggling missions and black market trades at Hartsfield Market last weekends.
And i dont see any harm from black market trades on LFE stations,
because volume of this trades is low comparing to regular tading,
and benifit from CSG smugling missions complited simultaneously exceeds any possible harm to CSG,
which even is not confirmed, and may be сonversely harms the LFE economy.
And one more valueble argument - you risk only with LFE reputation,
if you get ourself catched on smuggling.
Orfeboy, please add this mini-guide to first page.

Full information about Lugh stations and outposts.
Black Markets can be found only on Federation ports:
Starport Cavendish Ring - Lugh For Equality - 38,3 Ls
Starport Hartsfield Market - Lugh For Equality - 217 Ls
Outpost Adamson Enterprise - Lugh For Equality - 3211 Ls
Feel free to use it for smuggling, but try to use more
stolen goods for CSG missions, then you sale to LFE.
