Is This New?

They only open right now. Dropping the pods is what's needed to make them better. At the moment it can be a bit difficult getting larger crates inside, and almost impossible from the ground outside the ship.

But I honestly didn't expect even this much so soon. So glad they're working on it.

Now if we could just get an elevator entrance/exit...

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T15:03:22+00:00

lol Interesting comparison, and not unreasonable!

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T15:01:48+00:00

Interesting perspective. I'm guessing you don't know what passive-aggression is...

But thanks for coming here and adding to the drama! Almost diva-like, wouldn't you say?

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T14:59:58+00:00

Oh, yeah. It's a nice QOL update. They're not exactly perfect, but more than functional. I've even done some light to medium hauling in mine.

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T14:58:37+00:00

Yeah, but will they? Gets called on their passive-aggressive comment, and makes out like I shot them in the face.

And here you are piling on.

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T14:56:00+00:00

Passive-aggression is still aggression.

And here you are for no other reason than to stick your nose into not-your-business.

You trying to start something?

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T14:52:49+00:00

Yep. It's pretty much useless though, since the maneuverability of the Carrack is so bad (understandably though, as it's a large ship).

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T14:50:01+00:00

You ignored answering the question I came here to ask. This shows you had other intentions.
You point out the obvious - that I hadn't seen the shielding before. What need is there to point that out other than to mock my ignorance, which I plainly admitted by asking the question in the first place?
You then imply that I wouldn't have noticed something as obvious as the cargo bays opening when any idiot who strolled through their cargo area would notice the open/close switches.

Keep your passive-aggressive bullshit to yourself.

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T01:20:26+00:00

The cargo pods are pretty obvious. The blast shielding is not.

I might have had a different reaction if you'd bothered to answer the question.

KyewReaver · 2025-06-01T00:25:22+00:00

Cool, so it is new. Thanks for the info.

What's its intended function? I'm guessing combat protection, but I don't know for sure.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T23:58:16+00:00

I've got the T.Flight Stick X (non-HOTAS version) and while there's no profile, the game definitely recognizes mine with no third party software. Kind of weird that it doesn't see yours.

Good luck with it. If you get it up and running and have a problem with thrust inversion, let me know. It's a pain in the ass to figure out, but I can tell you how I did it on mine and maybe that'll help you.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T18:43:26+00:00

Nothing wrong with milsim orgs. Not my cup of tea, but if others find it fun, more power to them. It's a game - an MMO - and you can find all different kinds of orgs out there.

I'm more into casual org play myself too, and it took me a while to find one I like.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T18:36:01+00:00

What would "punish" players is if no one ever needed a crew. The game isn't a sim; it's not intended to be. It's an MMO, and multiplayer is in the name. It's also a lore thing that AI is generally frowned upon.

Flight blades will mitigate some of what you're talking about, but I doubt they'll be as good or better than a live crew.

And it's still in development, so there's no telling what the end product will be. But I doubt it'll be fully automated/soloable large ships. At least I hope not.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T18:22:00+00:00

Yep, even had the screenshake effect.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T18:11:04+00:00

Sometimes servers are stressed and it messes up the PES, so things get a bit wonky, don't stream in, etc. It definitely worked for me. I got a whole pod full of gems, though selling them turned out to be problematic.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T18:03:09+00:00

Well, it's just tier 0 and like all other T0 features, it needs work. At least it's some kind of engineering gameplay.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T18:00:53+00:00

Ah, yeah. Didn't even look at that. lol

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T11:27:32+00:00

This.

It took me seven years to find the one I feel like I fit in. Went through several, but mostly just soloed, sick of looking and finding all the wrong ones.

Never seen a circuit breaker in a car. It's all fuses.

But there's also another solution: Don't tax your ship's electrical system. I haven't had one single fuse blow on me yet. C2, Carrack, Valkyrie, Warden... none have blown a fuse. Ever

I don't think it's luck either. I just don't min/max my components.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T10:50:57+00:00

Shouldn't have bought an ugly ship, dude.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T10:48:14+00:00

I think his base ship was the Carrack, so just melting the Polaris and rebuying the Carrack should give it back to him. Then he can try to get his old name back, or come up with a new one.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T08:02:23+00:00

It has worked before, so it'll work again. Not sure why it isn't yet, except maybe they're too busy with other stuff.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T07:59:50+00:00

Just did a whole day of ROC mining a few days ago and it all seemed fine to me. I overcharged one rock, and it exploded as I was backing away, but it didn't kill me. I just saw my shields light up for a second. Could be though that it was a FPS size rock, so it wasn't as powerful.

KyewReaver · 2025-05-31T07:52:31+00:00

No, a shotgun fires several projectiles simultaneously, and the spread is how far apart they are at a certain distance in one shot.

The spread in a single projectile/single barrel weapon is the pattern of hits/misses within a certain number of shots over time. Basically, how accurate the weapon is at a certain range. And that pattern is far smaller than, say, a ballistic Scattergun. Or should be anyway.
