You can change your callsign now!

Looking through the audio settings, I found that you can change how the traffic controllers refer to you. You can choose from you commander's name, the ship's name or the ship ID. They still only use the first three characters of it, but there's some more options now!

Excellent news!! Thanks for the heads up Commander. o7

Oh! Fantastic.
I used the prefix CRA on all my ships before. So my Clipper had the ID CRA1X

Still only a 3 letter phonetic response though...we did ask in the beta for it to be expanded a bit. Maybe at some point in the future...otherwise it's kinda pointless.

It does mean they say Delta Whisky 2 for me. My Cobra is named the DW2 Kalashnikov.

I changed my ship name to Delta Echo Lima so now they announce all of it

How long before the galaxy is full of ships named "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"?

The first symbol in my ship id is = i wonder how the game would handle that

Here's hoping they increase it 6 at least, so the traffic controllers will use someone's entire ship ID.

I'm fairly sure the traffic controllers will only say numbers and letters. My ship's ID is S-021 and they said Sierra Zero Two.

I'll stick with:

"[Insert ship manufacturer name here] Papa India November".

My ship i.d.'s all have the PIN prefix (e.g. PIN-01).
