Capitol Ships

Post by Rogue2 »

Thank You Strail and the other moders who got the capital ships up and running.

I do have 1 suggestion for you though and I'll use one of my characters as an example:

I flew my AT to a certain location upgraded to a gunship then upgraded to a Luxury Liner (which is darn near impossible to fly) figuring that since  it has a larger cargo space, I could do more interesting and profitable cargo runs.  All the ships that I have puchased state on the info card that they have anywhere from a 4500 to 70,000 cargo space. I have found that in actuallality cargo space runs up to 500 or so.

Unfortunitly I have yet to find a location that I can sell my "capitol ship" and purchase a fighter so that I can  go back and buy my AT.
Would it be possible to have a Starflier or some other sort of small ship be purchasable  at one of the "capitol ship dockable locations" ?

I know that you have more then enough to do and I do appreciate all that you have and willl be doing.

Thanks for making The Void a great place to fly!!!

yep the infocards are messed up..but thats not much of a prob

a big broblem is manuvering these...dreadnaught swings like on a seasow in space :P
and one more is it takes loads of time to dock...(or can it dock?)
tbh i havent been able to dock the dreadnaught successfully it takes too much time to tock in the port >.<

The battleships are not completely finished.  They are not ment to be capable to purchase, the only reason players can buy them is when Strail updated the FLAC... a bug developed, the bug allows players to dock on any Ports which it is not suppose to.  You are only suppose to be able to dock on 1 port which you need to buy the Gunboats then you can upgrade your capital ship.

Don't worry about the turning speed of the capital ships - They're not completely finished, like i said.  And your not suppose to be able to buy them yet.

Hopefully this will be sorted out soon.

I bought one and the Anti-Cheat kicked me :P

I tried it again, three times, and when the Anti-Cheat would NOT let me launch with the Pirate Destroyer.

I might be wrong on this but I dont think the Pirate Destroyer is gonna be the Admins BS.

None of the other admin ships are visible to buy and surley if you were an Admin you would want something a bit better than a pirate destroyer?

As I said, I might be wrong, but it doesnt seem to make sense.lol.

No, that doesnt make much sense... not to me atleast. Oh well, they know what they're doing, they'll do a good job.

Well, I finally got my cap. I'm so excited I think I'll change my 'mood' thingy. OK, here's a couple of hints. Check the armor of the ships. The higher the armor rating the more mass a ship has and therefore will turn slower. The bigger the slower but flying a cap takes patience. Give yourself plenty of space when docking with ports, lane rings, and gates. Don't hot dock, it don't work. When in the shipyard, hover your mouse over the cargo space bar before you buy that ship. The Pirate Destroyer shows something silly like -9986547 spaces free, which is a pretty good sign you will be cheat booted if you buy it. There are no bats storage space and ports don't sell bots but other ships can transfer them to you. Ditto with the shield.

Um, then why is the Pirate Destroyer available at mutiple ports? I've seen it on at least 3 so far. It's just that the client & server ships don't match that makes a kick I think.

I think it will be available, and needs to be for proper Pirate Vs Navy RP anyways!

I'd recommend not buying it or any B.Ship for now, we know they're changing. The gunboats and my personal flagship, the Rhineland Cruiser, seem safe... no kicks.
