Re: QWERTY Keyboards In-Universe

A speed limit really only applies in bad weather. Otherwise it is just a suggested minimum. If you go slower people will want to run you off the road.

And in the future, I think we will have trained ourselves to use our feet for typing, freeing up our hands for better things.

Re: Frontier: Elite II Veteran Commander

Welcome. I hate to do this w/o checking, but I think there is a link to a manual, probably a bit out of date, on the launcher. There are also the tutorial videos. And as I type this I realize that these things may not be available for non-PC players. D'oh! :roll: fwiw https://d1wv0x2frmpnh.cloudfron...

Re: USS Scaning

Well, they kind of tell you what is inside - coded emissions, weapons fire, convoy dispersal ... but they are not persistent so no use tagging them. The non-persistence of most things is very frustrating in ED.

Re: Will a new mobo help?

Well, I bit the bullet and installed Win 7 a few weeks ago. My first day playing I went 12 hours - and then had a disconnect. After installing the Rift, I now generally get a disconnect or two within the first several minutes of playing, but then can go hours w/o any more problems. And the disconnec...

Sorry, that doesn't even compute with me any more. :roll: I guess it is broken.
I'm still in my starter Sidey and it's been a year and a half since I had reserve power like that!

Re: PATCH IS LIVE ! Beyond 3.0 patch notes.

Nah, it's bugged, I can turn the warning symbol on and off by changing a priority even though I'm only at 89%, also apparently a couple of the beam lasers, chaff, docking comp, PD and fighter hanger on my conda all use 0% power I think the warning symbol is to let you know that when you deploy your...

Re: PATCH IS LIVE ! Beyond 3.0 patch notes.

It's like Deja Vu all over again.

I swear I've read many of these same patch notes over and over several times.

Any yet, apparently buggies still explode for no good reason (as well as many good ones).

Re: Out of Fuel? -- Mobius Fuel Rats

Those are some cute names for rat ships: Ratalooga, Rataconda, RAsp - well maybe RAsp isn't so cute. :roll: But no love for the DBX, Cobra, and Adder? Since a Diamonback is a rattlesnake, I think Rattler would be a natural nick for the DBX. :) Even the Cobra could be Cobrat or Corat, and the Adder R...

You need to read "Zen and the Art of Asteroid Mining".


I'm playing again and feeling a satisfying sense of progression in my starter Sidey (until some pirates murdered me). :|
