[8.0 Beta] question: should agent ships be visible?

Post by Y-llian »

Quick question (not bug related)

Should the ship you assign to the agent be visible on the map either:

1. After it's assigned?
2. Flying to their target?

Thanks kindly.

Best
Y.

No, for various practical reasons, they are not.

Ok, good to know. No need to "juice up" our agent ships then. :)

Well, that's not entirely true. The ship's loadout can have an effect on how long the agent action takes. :)

I assume shielding and weaponry is not a factor?

Firepower can have an effect too. I suggest you experiment and see what works. :)

Would there be immediately visible effects like shortened timers or higher success chances or whatever? Or do we need to just keep running it to figure out what matters?

Try it and see. If you don't think there's enough feedback, tell us about it. That's what the Public Beta is for. :)
