      Quest creation using Lua

      I've been tinkering with an npc you could chat with for lore info, but he doesn't do much else right now.

      Quest creation using Lua

      I kind of figured that keeping track of completed quests or even making them reset after completion would either be tricky or impossible at this point in time, but if I can get a basis to start off with until it gets supported then I'll be ready for it.

      Quest creation using Lua

      Okay, so I've been messing around with Lua for the past week and looking at the different Npc files that control their behavior with an Lua editor. Now I can basically alter what the TG merchant says in his text dialogs, what he sells, and the prices he charges, but just looking at the code can...

      Recognized Flak weapons

      Love the area denial part these flak variants. Had a mock battle with a buddy of mine, should've beaten him, but his boarding shuttle was too fast for my turrets. If I'd had flak cannons I could've kept him out of my hanger bay. I did learn to put anti-personel guns in my hanger bays after...

      I like it, haven't thought of that one.

      Read by Council Template Improvements

      I love using templates, it speeds up the building process immensely. Though there areally a few improvements that would be simple to implement and make them better. I find that as I keep using them, they start to get a little disorganized, and looking for the one I want out of the dozens I've...

      Recognized Solar Panels!

      I think this would work very well for a static entity like a space station, which would cut down on the cpu load as far as caculating the distance from the nearest star, but it would still need to be able to differenciate between natural light and light emitted from blocks. Otherwise you could...

      Mostly Dark Universe

      Thanks for the upgrades to the spawn shop again. As for new rules; there hasn't been too much communication between players outside of their own factions. So unless some new problems or issues come up, I'll keep the current rules as they are. How's that?

      Read by Council Salvage as an effect

      Personally, I'd rather be able to build salvage drones that actually mine for me. Changing the salvage mechanics has been talked to death about and nothing more efficient has been discussed so far as I've read. If I could turn my salvage barge into a salvage carrier with multiple drones mining...

      If anyone has actually read the MotD on MDU, we'll be starting discussions on possible new rules, specifically involving factions, and the possibility of some new moderators. Hope to hear from you all, you're feedback is appreciated.

      Well it is a Canadian server, and I'm in Ontario, so EST time for me. Can't say about the other guys except for one who lives in my hometown. We also seem to be more active on weekends and evenings, so check during those times.

      Pretty low pop server right now, and I seem to be the only other player who uses TeamSpeak too. They'll come out of their hiding spots eventually, and I try to pop in at least once a day after work to keep an eye on things.

      Recognized Consumables for purposes other than a hunger mechanic.

      Consumables of any kind should have a cool down to prevent people using them constantly, like popping med kits everytime they get shot, effectively making them unkillable as long as they have med kits on them. Same goes for any special effect meta items, like stims and such.

      There's also the fact that collisions also bypass shields, assuming you have that server setting turned on. Had to turn that setting off on my server since undocking was considered a high speed collision for some reason, and got tired of having to rebuild my USD-1 docks. I've been trying to...

      Forget drill torpedoes, put a big bow mounted drill on your cruiser a la Super Atragon and put some REALLY BIG holes in titans and stations.

It's continuous fire salvage beam, ample cargo space, medium range scanner, and modest jump drive make it the go to...
