Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
I finally got caught (in a Democracy) with the Pirate ID cleaner and the Galcop scanner, both were removed, and both resulted in hefty severity 2 and 3 bounties (one 45, one 50). Good riddance, they were useless as far as I could tell, with no way to sell or otherwise remove them. But again, the des...

Re: Audio fails
This happens to be every session on my mac sooner or later, especially when a lot of sounds are used together, like in battle. Sometimes the sound gets corrupted and there's a permanent background hum/buzz, but most often it just cuts out entirely. One potential workaround might be to periodically j...

Re: [WIP] GalCop Missions
Is there a trick to the interstellar rescue missions? If this is the "Interstellar ship rescue" mission, then you would have been given 1t of machinery after accepting the mission. You need to eject that cargo near the stricken ship so they can make repairs. I will check the next time I c...

Re: [WIP] GalCop Missions
Is there a trick to the interstellar rescue missions? I approach the stranded ship, stop close by, but nothing seems to happen. What is the required form of contact to complete the rescue?

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
Could this have been from the PirateID Cleaner equipment? Does it leave a log entry? Possibly. I think, if memory serves, the ID Cleaner cleans your bounty out of the current system, but puts it back when you leave, or something like that. I'll have to have a closer look to confirm. As for leaving ...

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
If you have a bounty and manage to dock at a GalCop station go to your F4 screen. Once there look for the Galcop Security Office or the Galcop Security Kiosk and select it. Once inside you can make a variety of choices but the ones you are looking for describe your bounties in the current system or...

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
I have an update in the pipeline that will hopefully reduce the number of misc offences. Just tied up with a couple of other updates. That would be great, I think it's a very good OXP in concept. It does keep one on one's toes if interested in "clean" assignments, while allowing one, if c...

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
Thanks for the info. Situational awareness is great, but it begins with fully knowing the scenarios and rules under which bounties are assigned. I didn't know for example that shooting a low-bounty non-aggressive offender is considered an offense. Again, having the explanation be something other tha...

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
I had some bounties that had come payable, and I was starting to work my way through paying them off, when all of a sudden they all vanished, and I had a totally clean record. Then I was fighting a pack of offender Boas (usually very good money!) near a station, and somehow earned an offender status...

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
Thanks for the reply. My impression is that when you're marked as an offender or fugitive, you pretty much can't do anything legal involving other ships (bounty hunt, escort, random hits assignments, basically anything that puts you around other ships), because of the risk of generating additional b...

Re: [WIP] Bounty system OXP
After some accidents (leaving weapons enabled while docking and brushing the trackpad which shot my lasers at the station) and some questionable decisions (defending my mother ship from police on an escort mission after he inexplicably decided to attack them [well they did get hostile after all]), I...

Re: [WIP] GalCop Missions
Yes, the Manifest Scanner makes a lot of sense -- I haven't bought one yet since I hadn't really started doing any pirating yet, but with these GalCop missions it makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the info -- knowing that the alien items pirating missions are not impossible is good enough to elect to...

Re: (Release) Smugglers - The Galactic Underworld
Something I have noted regarding items which perhaps should not be available at Galcop locations (Pirate ID Cleaner & Galcop Scanner) Neither of which is actually part of Smugglers. They're actually in the UPS Courier OXP, and both items do have restrictions: they are only available in Anarchy ...
