    I was doing some weapons tests today and after a few shots I got this:

    seriously.jpg

    this station still has shields and power and a faction cube somewhere, even though the turrets, the docks, and the entire center is gone. what the heck shouldn't that little target hanging in the middle of space be at least close to where ever the faction module is? As it stands what little bit of junk still sitting there can not even be salvaged at this point, I still have to blow some more off it till I find the faction cube.

    On a station, the icon is where the first block was placed. Could try using build mode and flying through the rubble to find the faction module, get an idea of where it is for next time you fight one of those.

    I just found it. Go up the elevator in the second section. There is a little section that has some terminals and it is in there.

    Basically its slightly upper section, in the middle

    thanks guys I finally got it, it was right were pctech86 said, in a section I had not shot at because it looked like just a wall from where i was. I guess that big hanger was on the front so if I had hit it head on it would have been gone in the first attack, but hitting it from the side I missed it totally. I'll have to keep that in mind next time, this time all that was left for salvage was part of the hangar and a couple of the side walls.

    Jesus christ, you really did a number on Vanhelzing's pirate station.

    Faction blocks on stations should really redirect the diamond to overtop of it.

    Jesus Christ indeed. Weapons testing? At this point I would just consider it shooting for the sake of shooting. lol


    When I placed the module is was in this location. Is this where you found it? The lighting hides it well.



    I heard the devs may have changed it. I didn't think it was inaccessible. Not like the one on my trading guild station.

    "if only breakoff wasn't so lag intensive" is the only thought that comes to mind.

    actually no, that was only three shots. I was just surprised when i got close enough to see the station, that it was still working

    Wait. Why does it say it's owned by the Iconian Empire?

    Admin command I assume;
    • faction_edit
      • DESCRIPTION: edits a faction with name and description
      • PARAMETERS: factionID(Integer), FactionName(String), Description(String)
      • EXAMPLE: /faction_edit 1001 myNewFaction mustbeoneword
    Sounds like a funny little thing to play with~
