Well, now that you have discovered TOL, your next challenge is flying the path to Earth. You will absolutely love the Earth sectors.

Make sure that you write down the directions on the artifact by the jumpgate on the moon surface.

FYI: I'm not sure what script is doing it, but it seems that something runs a check of every ship I own every 5 minutes, then reports it to my messages. It wasn't so bad when I only had a couple ships, but now that I've got a bit of a fleet going, it's really clogging things up and making it take a minute or so to open my messages.

Also, is a .3 release gonna be soon, or am I safe d/ling the .2 and playing with that for a while?

The artifact directions are wrong. The correct letters are E-S-S-W-W-N.

.3 MAY be out over the course of the upcomeing week. Their is no guarentee, it just depends on how throughly its beta tested by our BT's.

I bounced into strange behaviour ship. Xenon L X2 - it has slightly overpowered laser capacitor. Nearly 50 000, more than twice power than usual M1 or M2. With it's unlimited firing 8xbeta HEPTs, small profile and perfect manoeuvrability this ship is ideal killer of every large ship.

Wow...

I dont know how that one skipped the reballance!

That's perfect, so I can speed up the german version release because I'm translating it at the moment...

Freaky001 sent it to me after I wrote him at egosoft forum that I can help with this....

Best wishes
Starbuster

Just let me know when it is ready Starbuster and I will add it to the latest version for DL on our German page.

Excellent work and thank you for this.

Regards,

North.

From TOL try E-E-S-W-W and look for a SY and some loot

It could well be this weekend if we complete the new additions after testing.

V03 will be posted soon but anyone wishing to continue with 02 or make a fresh start with 03 have the choice.

V03 will have a few new ships including the new Paranid M0. The Galaxy will also include a better spread of new ship locations and some extra hidden loot. This will also come with a much improved trading system in both Terran and quite a few of the new sectors. There is another new ship for the Pirates, called the red hauler, a modified light freighter that also has pretty good fighter abilities.

The ACC (carrier control scripts) has a new version out that fixes a bug with carriers holding ships that aren't set to a home base. Hopefully that fix will make it into a new script package.

i docked said loot at said shipyard and bought the yaki battle cruiser(BC). switched ships into the BC and undocked about 2800km from the shipyard. needless to say moving at 80km i reloaded a save from just before that and undocked the Loot before swtiching and undocking the BC.

Could always use the X-Scripts auto updater.

Thats one of the purpose's of useing it in a .spk from the original author.

Besides that fact, the new script pack WILL have the updated versions.

Reagger · Post by **Reagger** » Sun, 13. Aug 06, 19:03

I did update my copy of the SPK for ACC. I just thought it was a pretty nasty bug and you might want to include it if you were doing a fix.

Great mod so far too. I'm having fun exploring the universe all over again

D/l'd the latest scripts last night, but I think I'll wait for v03 to come out to restart the game.
thanks for the info

Hi all, love the work, One question though I found a H class ship as discussed above but I can't seem to claim it. Any ideas

narcher · Post by **narcher** » Tue, 15. Aug 06, 10:33

Another question as far as releasing future updates. Was thinking this as I restarted my game from 0.1 to 0.2 and I cheated to recreate my empire as it was before I started again, is it possible to export your current property and read it back in after restarting. You may have to reset all the commands on the ships etc, but at least your empire will be restored. Possible?

killerog · Post by **killerog** » Tue, 15. Aug 06, 13:31

In less any major problems are found with the mod eg missing gates. Updates will work with your save games.

narcher · Post by **narcher** » Tue, 15. Aug 06, 14:36

Will the extra hidden ships etc show up on a 0.2 game continued with the 0.3 mod? Also anone got any idea on how to capture the ship I was talking about in the above post. I have tried getting out of my ship and claiming, but doesn't seem to be an option. Or is that ship not claimable

I will go into more detail on where the ship was below

Spoiler

Show

From TOL EESWW into the unknown sector. There is a SY and a Xeon H class ship. If I shoot it enough it goes red and attacks me. But other than that just sits near an asteroid in that sector. I Can not work out how to claim it.
