I’ve been working a system, getting the controlling Factions influence level down while raising another factions up just to start a war; and its been going very well.
The controlling faction has lost -8.6% this week alone. The other faction +4.3%
The controlling faction state is:
Boom
Civil liberty
Outbreak (as of this morning)
system security is medium
There have been no wars, no pirate attacks.
Everything is as calm as a system can get. I’ve not been attacking any factions since I started my agenda.
But this morning the controlling faction went into Outbreak AND suddenly there are 11 convoy beacons . I’ve never seen so many with so many T9’s or 10’s and not one of em gives up any valuable scan data. Then I counted 13 checkpoints. Its my understanding that those usually show up when something like piracy levels get nasty or players are attacking everything that moves in a system which eventually leads to lockdown, but it doesn’t look like that to me.
I have absolutely no clue what could have triggered all this unless a bug or its due to the fact that the controlling factions influence level has been dropped from 41.8% to 33.2%
I’m trying to learn this particular mechanism of the game, I just was not expecting all this weirdness to occur, just to start a war .
I have no idea what just happened.
Your thoughts?
