Id be interested if anyone else has seen this...it quite confused me..sorry about the lighting there was no sun or planet
You said you clipped through the edge of the asteriod in the chase mission? What you see in your screeny is the outside of tunnel you are supposed to stay inside of.

Two questions popped into my mind about the latest shot of the week:

1. Can they really add color-coding into shipnames?

2. What script or mod might name ships the way the one on the target monitor has been named? :roll:

Only just saw this today. The target monitor has a Terracorp Combat Pilots ship on it. (Specifically, one joined to a task force.)

You can (obviously) definitely add colour to ship names - works the same way as coloured text in the message log.

Good to see the devs are trying out user scripts - they may hopefully get some good ideas from there.

You know you have had enough when you dock at a pirate base and toss a couple bucks at the monitor...

They dont nessesarily have to come from the devs iirc. People can submit their own screenshots via this thread (and other ways) and be lucky if they were chosen.

I might be mistaken but i think its Rolks Drift. *has an inner laugh*

Screenshots are a mix of X³ 2.0 and player-submitted captures fyi. I think the quoted screen is a little out of date ;)
