Solution for Player HQs current role and place?

Post by Nexuscrawler »

The Player HQ is currently spawning in Teladi space and it does not seem we have any saying in this.
That is a HUGE problem for people who want to play either as pirates or be hostile to the Teladi, because that would mean the Player HQ would die.

As far as I understand, the Player HQ is the only place we can do research in and with the Vutlure feature (multiplayer of some kind?) also the only place to get access to that.
Sooo.... is it even destructable to begin with? Seeing what a headache that would cause, do we just have an indestructible fortress in Teladi space now?

Will that issue be addressed? It seems like a serious flaw from my perspective that we are unable to move the HQ.
Can't the Boron scientist just open another space-time-crack and move it somewhere else? He did it once, I'm sure he can do it twice.

Any thoughts?

Yeah, it's going to be an issue when the PHQ actually will have anything really worth speaking of. Right now you supposedly can fairly easily, via modding, modify were it spawns (but I'm not sure if the quest will adapt dynamically without needing to have new set coordinates as well), but as there's no function in game to relocate it, to have that a mod should build one from scratch, and that's a bigger endeavour.

But I suppose that chance to relocate it is going to be added by Egosoft in the future, when they'll begin adding some features that are currently missing. There's a lot of work to do on the PHQ anyway, and they are sure aware of it.

Given the... method of acquisition for the station, it would presumably be relatively easy to make it relocatable.
