Challange: Map only game (flowerpot admiral)

Post by Damocles_ »

#1 find a station with a flowerpot
#2 never leave this position
#3 win the game just using the map + remote controls

-------------

The game can be basically played just by using the map and remote controlling the owned ships.
(apart from specific mission and scanning elements)

I think it would be a good challenge to try and play the game just by remotely giving order to ships and stations, including exploring the systems, trading, fighting and capturing ships (not sure if that works remotely).
Its also a good test of how well integrated remote actions are, and what parts of the game require the player to pilot.

- Having remote control over detailed actions is something the X game should be advertising more as a unique feature. -

There's a "plunder" option for 4+ star pilots, but I've never had the courage to sacrifice such a pilot to test the feature :wink:

Some aspects of the game does require the player's presence.

I have also read that if you remain in the sector of your stations too long it will freeze.
Or on your own stations, not sure.
