Good idea :) I'll join once the download is finished and I'm done with orientation.

What we could also try to work on - figuring out if the unlocking-stuff-in-sandbox is doable without playing the stuff by e.g. editing a certain file... :gruebel:

We'll learn how to do that - and if it has any effect at all. :) Right now I'm guessing that setting those tags with "_complete" in the name from 0 to 1 might trigger the sandbox to "activate" rewards. This is exciting!

I suspect the rewards for Spaceport Stride and Station Circruit might be switched around at the moment - despite looking in the correct spot multiple times I only found the ship in Freedom's Reach after I finished the mission that is supposed to unlock the ship in Moo-Kye's Revenge.

Are those ships free/empty to capture?

I am just going through the timeline missions and noticed the messages that "Ship is available in sector XYZ" after completing some, will start a new game afterwards.

Small update on this - seems like the "real unlocks" are tied to the signing process - and are stored in userdata_signed.xml. So everybody has to play it once for themselves, no artificial unlock. :(

I think the missions which provide ships in the sandbox has:

"Unappropriated vessel with unusual livery design presumed in sector:"

..near the bottom of the mission description on the grids.

I have not loaded the sandbox to check, but those spoilers above appear to match the info provided in Timelines.

I'm not quite done with grid 3 but so far nothing reads so far about non-ship rewards in the missions descriptions.

I do believe you are absolutely right about the swapped rewards for Freedom Reach and Moo-Kye's Revenge. I spent over an hour searching Freedom's Reach after finishing Spaceport Stride, only to find that it had spawned the Moo-Kye's reward, and not Freedom Reach. So, it's a bug, either with the ship spawn, or in the mission description of course.

This is a good thread. :thumb_up:
Solidified my intention of not buying the DLC, as none of the rewards interest me. :|

Gregory just released the official Egosoft spoiler about the rewards in this FAQ-thread: viewtopic.php?f=146&t=463317

End of the line guys. What's left is to "just" play Timelines :lol:

Some details about Xenon H lacking M-turrets and M-shield
-in my case it had 9/19 M-turrets
-30% of M-shield (did not count)
-everything else is in place

There are TWO ways to retrofit lacking equipment:
1) complete Timelines story -> go to Boso Ta in Open Universe and get an Epilogue of Timelines. Then you are able to create a budgeted start, where you can choose an H and fit it 100%
2) get the ship -> find another enemy Xenon H and destroy it to loot the core -> research it -> retrofit the ship in your Shipyard

It is missing some weapons and shields. Just like capturing a damaged Capital ship in the game. At least thats how it spawned in my game.
