Finding things again

Post by Lucidor »

Recently I encountered a hotel where I was offered missions. The pay was good, but I wanted to save before taking a mission so I left for the coriolis which wasn't that far away. Before entering the coriolis I turned around to see where the hotel was, but it was gone.

Either it had ceased to exist or it was too far away to be seen.

If it was too far away, would there have been anything I could do to find it again? A system map or something?

It probably would appear on your Advanced Space Compass. Do you know which OXP the hotel is from?

Probably the Assasins guild. Though looking through the oxp I can't find anything about hotels there. :) Maybe I'm mistaken and it was a bar or something like that.

Thats what I thought at first, but then I wasn't sure you get missions with them?

Definitely not a casino. This looked more like a combination of a griffstation and an asteroid.

Ah! This sounds like a seedy space bar, from Random Hits.

If so, then I believe the Advanced Space Compass tags the bars with a B.

That may be it. Seems to be gone now.. not very surprising since I quit the game in between but still a bit disappointing.

Thanks for the help.

These should stay in Anarchy systems but as asteroids drift, their positions will change.

With Random Hits, just about any anarchy system has its own different space bar, so you don't need to go to Isoned to find another just like the Twisted Torus Hotel.
