Anxeadi beacon X

[ilNibbio]

Just a little question:
I am in Anxeadi G4, the compass report a "beacon X".
Curiosity killed the cat.
I went there, then I was attacked by some powerful military drones.
I destroyed one, and stayed clean, then I went away.
What's this beacon X for?
Thx in advance

Which OXP's do you have installed?

Elite rating? I suspect it's over 512; if so, it seems to be a part of Trident Down. I may be wrong.

[Smivs]

I can't help with your question I'm afraid. The only 'X' beacon on the compass I know of is the Xeptatl Society installations from my Xeptatl's Sword mission OXP, as listed here. No other 'X' beacons are listed there.

[Cody]

You have several Griff standalone OXPs, and his Replace and Resources OXPs... best to sort that out, as you shouldn't need both!

[ilNibbio]

@Rese249er
Not Elite yet, I'm over 4.8K kills.
I've already started the Trident mission. I have to travel to Raceedat to find out.
Yep, could be a part of it. Raceedat is just 11ly away.

@Smivs
I've already been to that page to check it out. I haven't any Xeptatl oxp, so..this Anxeadi X is missing

@El Viejo
plz let me get it straight:
should I have to delete all the standalones and keep just the R&R oxp?

Many thx to all

[DredgerMan]

Just a little question:
I am in Anxeadi G4, the compass report a "beacon X".
Curiosity killed the cat.
I went there, then I was attacked by some powerful military drones.
I destroyed one, and stayed clean, then I went away.
What's this beacon X for?
Thx in advance

If memory serves me correctly, in Vortex you get a distress call from Arn and his beacon is shown as X. That is until you save him or he dies, in which case he will call you again a few jumps later.

[Cody]

should I have to delete all the standalones and keep just the R&R oxp?

Yes, that should work better - delete the standalones and keep the Replace and Resources OXPs!
Also, you have Random Hits inside one of the standalones - move it out on its own.

My own Ooniverse is exclusively Griff'ed - my recommended list:

Code: Select all

I've made a little search..Arn should be a Vector Mission character, isn't it? I haven't that oxp..the X on the compass should be something else.
Thx anyway

@ El Viejo
I found the RandomHits oxp..got out of the folder (how could it get there?)
And deleted the Griff's standalones.
Thx for advice

[ilNibbio]

I'm here again..
I think I possibly have the clue.
I have installed Vector Oxp, and something happened...
I am travelling G4, following the story of Trident Down.

Since it could be considered a spoiler (thx for advice above), I had crypted:

I am asking myself what about the "X" found in Anxeadi, with military vessels

[Smivs]

Edit
Edit: omg I didn't consider that...is it a spoiler?

Ha, probably. When posting material like this we often ecrypt it using rot13. That way people who want to know can decrypt it, and others need never know
Remember you can edit your posts, so if you want to encrypt it, you still can. Just click on the 'edit' button and c&p the encrypted output from rot13 over the relevent section of your post.

That's from the Trident Down OXP as you can see here. http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/List_o ... ed_in_OXPs

[ilNibbio]

Wiki is an incredible source of info !!
I didn't know about the existence of that page.
Since it seems I have almost get to the end of Trident Down mission, yes, you're right, could be.

Nice done, Ramirez. I had fun with your Trident Down.

[Ramirez]

Just noticed this so thought I'd pop in and provide some answers for those who are curious.

Simple explanation (no spoilers) is that:
