You can name a sector

Post by BlackRain »

I forgot to mention this I think in my previous post where I said you could take over a sector. So, I decided to mention it here in case you didn't know and so more people can see it. Anyway, once you take over a sector, you can rename it to whatever you want!

Is this a joke? I guess you are trying to be funny. I know I can edit the post but starting a new post gives this more exposure .

"with all due respect"
Exposure for what? This was a pre-release feature we already knew lol.

Also I edited my post it came off a bit too nasty.
A lot of people don't know it obviously. That is the point. I also don't need your comments, thanks.

Directions on how to do it.

Go to map, click on the information tab and then click on the sector. Click on the name of the sector until the name disappears, then type in a name.

It does indeed, I was not aware of this feature, and glad you posted it again here, this way I found it and know about it.

Well that`s good to know. thanks.
1. Please do more on NPC civilian/uniform variety, and bio customisations, Devs.
2. Stations need sirens/warnings when enemy is close in numbers or Station in danger of destruction (in Sandbox).
Yes, for immersion. Thankyou ahead of time. (Edit: This is actually happening!!!)

Thanks for the info. Also any more plans for this? Like setting taxes, being able to allow/disallow stations or plots, or allowing players to assign police or make certain materials illegal?

It could work if Betty has (or is given) certain "wildcard" words (Alpha, Beta, Gamma... etc, as it was in previous X games). If you name your sectors choosing from the prerecorded words she could be made so she recognizes and uses them. Like we did with mods in X3 (Tokyo Lambda, Gannet Kappa, Magnetar Zeta and other mishmashes of greek alphabet + ship models and so on). Limited, for obvious reasons, but better than nothing.

I didn't know about this nor about taking over a sector which has encouraged me to do so since then. My only question though is if we rename the Sector would we possibly have the same issues as the bug with the Unknown Base being renamed?

You lost a bit of respect there with that uncalled for toxicity, Kane.

I wasnt aware of this feature, thanks for pointing it out as I'll be using it.
