Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
First posting here (and anywhere about the game) ... i love it so far (played the old elites long time ago) and I hope new stuff will be added for a long time to come ... willing to pay for major updates.
Question: i have a 750 k bounty claim with gold legal partners (yes, freng system, i ve found this issue on the web) but visiting Freng system and finding Gold legal partners i couldn t redeem my bounties there ...??? It seems i can t redeem them anywhere. I hope you can patch minor faction bounty claims to be more clearly about where to redeem them. Information is too brief and unclear in the panel, and the example of the gold legal partners? I ve located them but still no redeeming possible ...?

Has someone an idea?

Anyway, keep up the good work!
 
Personally, I don't think you can have enough dead people's names tucked away in the game somewhere. The galaxy is big enough for it not to feel like we're being made to tour a graveyard, and it adds a bit of colour for very little cost. Perhaps the process could even be automated by fetching an RSS feed of Science Fiction Obituaries once every couple of months, and renaming a random PG station in the galaxy?

Oh, and while we're at it, when Ironman is implemented, can we have an automatically populated graveyard system, where the wrecks of dead Commanders' ships are located and a small holoprojector gives the details of their career?

Yeah, also a lot of people not getting how important pterry was. In the 90s he was responsible for a full 6.5% of all books sold in the UK. 6.5% doesn't sound like a lot but consider how many books come out a year and how many get sold.
 
It's based on ship type, but predominantly the smaller the ship is the less likely they are to be scanned by the Authorities.

So, back in the DDF days there was discussion on the state of one's ship was also going to be a factor in the likelihood of being scanned - i.e. damaged / unmaintained ships had a higher chances (regardless of type) of being scanned.

Is this in the cards still?
 
Hmm patch is up, currently dl'ing at 1.98 MB/s and it says it'll be about 1 hour.... dunno what the size is though.

EDIT: scratch that, already finished.

While I approve of this, I think it sets a dangerous (pun intended) precedent for people to "request" in-game tributes for famous people who are no longer with us. Is there a starport named after Leonard Nimoy? Robin Williams? The crew of the Challenger Shuttle? You can't arbitrarily out of the blue add a starport in tribute to someone, as noble as the gesture may be, without risking upsetting some people for not adding a starport named after other famous people.

There game..there rules... but You can be sure there will never be a station named after you...lol

Its funny you say that as im having exactly the same issues, Im allied with Fed and Allied with Empire yet im not getting missions to progress no matter how many other side missions i do or bountys i claim or trades i make. Please fix this as i need to rank up to get a imperial clipper yet no missons to further me up the ranks! (im squire now from some of them but i been that for ages now and i would like to get to baron soon)

That is not a bug. I've had the same issue. It's a bit poorly explained that's all. You need to have a higher standing with the faction in question to get further missions. So if you want to advance in the Federation, you need to go do missions for federation systems until the Federation considers you worthy. A tip is to do missions for several diffrent systems as this seems to go faster.

Leonard Nimoy was added in 1.2.0 release.

No Robin Williams I don't think.

Also the two that have recently been added are directly connected with Sci-Fi and Fantasy genres, but your point is still valid.
