Thanks for the info!

I did cheat, I admit: I tried out the Python Class Cruiser fitted with a naval energy unit I saw being sold with a price tag of 610.000 Cr. at Xexedi. (I'm exploiting the Xexedi-Laenin trade route in my Cobra Mk.III, trying to keep away from trouble.) So, I tried the big snake and loved it -- it loo...

Um, I think I stumbled upon a thread that had the specs of all the ships collected. I think I was to toy with an excel sheet, but, after that -- it's all a blank. No idea what happened. And now I can't find the thread. If you could at least tell me I wasn't dreaming, it'd keep me from failing my SAN...

Yes. I did down-tune the shader effects, but still haven't tried with Realistic Shipyards. I've been quite happy with the selection of OXPs I'm running, although I'm not sure I'm ever able to earn enough credits to try out the SuperCobra (nor am I sure I'd even want to). There's just something about...

Yep. But don't change the player role (this is the player version of the ship). Only change the:- <key>roles</key> <string>supercobra</string> to <key>roles</key> <string>supercobra pirate</string> Some SuperCobras will still appear in the Space Lanes and be pretty harmless (these are criminal trad...

The Super Cobra NPCs run their own AI, which causes them to be complete pussy-cats! If you wanna toughen things up, open the shipdata file and find <role>. change this to pirate. find AI and change this to pirateAI. Care to help a fellow captain? So I am to open the shipdata.plist file? And in ther...

As I gather the people here have fought a few fights and hauled some odd tons of cargo in these ships, which of the souped-up Pythons do you use: the Class Cruiser or the ET Special? The Class Cruiser looks like a beast with seven energy banks and lots of cargo room, so I think it would be a good sh...

The two main issues with the sc have been it's wimpy AI as an opponent, and it's price, the latter has been fixed by Lestraedes basic RS... Where can I get the basic Realistic Shipyards? The only one I see is the latest version with every ship imaginable crammed in. And there's no way I will suffer...

Anyway, I hate you rvlvr! :wink: I simply cannot see the world from the perspective of those folks who say "Oh, this is just toooo easy!" I've no experience flying the thing, so no idea how over the top it is in "real life". As of yesterday, I've amassed a grand total of three (...

Thank you so very much -- I was growing desperate.

Cheers, man!

And another thing:

I bought two fuel tanks to be able to move faster along good trade routes, but aren't able to switch between missiles and the extra fuel. I tried to re-map the keys -- didn't even seem to f*ck anything up! -- but that didn't work.

I guess this might have been done to death already, but I hide behind my newbie status and rant away. As I am on the lookout for a new ship to replace the trusty, stylish and canon Mk.III, I was looking for other options, Cobras and Boas and Pythons. It seems there a lot of different versions of the...

I could try that, too, me thinks.

Absolutely yes.

Okay. Will do.

My MacBook Pro (first generation) has, if I remember correctly, 2.0 GHz and 1 GB RAM. I don't know how the game (I have v1.65) usually reacts to OXPs, but mine got stuck at "initializing galaxy" or some such. I removed the Realistic Shipyards, but still had the same thing happening with a ...
