Also, players will be able to transfer their ships to specific stations of choice without actually having to fly to get their ships themselves, as well as pay the fines remotely without having to visit the system where the fine is active.


Man.... that will be sweet! I can envision transferring my Vette to a BH CG some 250ly away from home, then zipping to that station in my exploration Asp in a matter of a few minutes. Grab the Vette from the station, and go kill stuff. :evil: Love it!

I'm still hopeful that in the same way you can pay fines remotely you can pick up bounties that way too. Requested that months ago and it would really help.

Updated for day 2!

It's all about the ship launched fighters and our own NPC crew!

It's hard to believe people actually have the brains to do something like that.

Anyway, I see the devs ignore the speed limit too.

Thanks for posting.
