I still don't get what "Titriotsrj" is supposed to mean. Is it a bawdy joke about the erstwhile Republic of Yugoslavia?Kaks wrote:You might find this quite interesting then!Mauiby de Fug wrote:I'm ashamed to say it took me 30 seconds to get that...

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
Umm....yeah, I can imagine. The Nuit stations have a similar glitch. Every time you launch, dock, launch, there's a new one. Got up to about five at one point.

Now that's a sight to behold, I'm telling you!
I uninstalled the OXP, needless to say. It was getting ridiculous to get out of their range for a witchspace.

Upgraded? Surely not. Check out the interstellar military version of the latest (and, er, latest programmed) Fer-de-lance!

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
Thanks UK_Eliter, but the FerDeLance previously used was actually really quite nice.
The Cobra S9 is a much better choice for the role, and its just soooo sexy

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
Smivs: ah, you used a custom paint job (and, indeed, version of the ship)? And is that a custom cobra ('S9')?

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
The ferdy is basically the one from my shipset, updated a bit for the next release, and adapted for Xeptatl's Sword.
The Cobra S9 is the 'mercenary' version as featured in Staer9's chopped cobra OXP. It's a hunter or trader NPC and is also buyable. I'm actually flying one while testing a different OXP mission, and it's a beauty! Not just to look at but to fly as well.

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
Oh yes... the Cobra S-9 'Mercenary' flies very sweetly indeed.

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
One part of this mission involves a stop at a research station in interstellar space. I thought something a bit different to the normal stations might be good, and came up with this! Model by Staer9.

It's starting to get crowded out there. If the devs don't open up Galaxy 9 soon, they'll have to devise a way to define inter-interstellar space.Smivs wrote:One part of this mission involves a stop at a research station in interstellar space.
Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
That is a very nice station Smivs and Staer9. New and refreshing design. Looking forward to seeing it in game.

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
Define? You can just have a misjump between 2 systems and have a script plop down whatever stations, ships, and even planets and moons you want. No sun, but a gas giant is probably possible. If that's not remote enough, have the script do multiple misjumps via wormholes. You can possibly end up solidly in the middle of a void with no systems within 3 LY if you plan it right.Wildeblood wrote:It's starting to get crowded out there.

Re: [WIP] Xeptatl's Sword
I would like a system.addSun() to interstellar space, but it is not currently possible. That would give OXP authors a chance to script lost systems.Switeck wrote:You can just have a misjump between 2 systems and have a script plop down whatever stations, ships, and even planets and moons you want.
