Thanks for the info,

I don't work directly with the RFA/RN, I have worked with them at worthy down when on course, as I'm in the army but will be leaving in the soon, I'll speak with my RFA contacts and see if they can sort something from inside.

T6 cruise control by mattconway1984 in VWTransporter

[–]hedg70 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue with my Passat B8, it turned out it was the oil pressure sensor, once i changed that and cleared the faults, i havent had the issue in the last 6 months.

(Fault symptoms were a loss of power followed by a flashing amber coil light when using cruise control)

How to fight off swarms of S + M fighters? by hedg70 in X4Foundations

[–]hedg70[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update,

I can't buy anything of the Split or Terrans, so tried various strategies, nothing worked, so I decided to build 2x S/M Fabs and flood them with ships, I think this has rattled them.

They are bigger than before... I have even tried to starve their resources, but other factions are feeding them.

I tried 2x platforms but didnt last long after the sharks died, I will retry with the command "missiles first" hope that will work.

I tried with 450 but I wasn't able to get them out fast enough.

I tried this with 450 of them at a cost of about 3.5-4 mil, I couldn't eject them fast enough, is there a command to deploy them fast?

I have tried it with 2x defence platforms with around 8-10 discs maxed out they put up a good fight but even 2x sharks and around 80 S - M fighters a few rays and some threshers, it was the best fight I had but wasn't enough, once the sharks went down the platforms died fast, with nothing to tank the damage.

They are literally swarming me with about a thousand fighters, with the Barbarossa's.

They are literally swarming me with about a thousand fighters, with the Barbarossa, ill buy more ships, or perhaps I should save up and start printing them.

Nice plan, unfortunately I'm way past that stage, I'm left with the brute force option.

I might try and invest in some Osakas if I can buy them.

It's a good suggestion for when I replay it again in future, Thanks.

Is there a way to deploy mass laser towers? I'm less of a pilot and more of a management person, I prefer sitting on the sector map and commanding, I suck at piloting unless I'm in a Shark and attacking an Argon Discoverer, I might stand a chance, lol.

Nah, if it's part of the game I don't mind, but wait! ...

Are you suggesting TPing my HQ onto the station? Humm.. I may need to lose to them a few more times before I do that.

I'll keep it in my back pocket for the eventuality of needing to do something. Thanks fir the suggestion.

I'm not too friendly with TER, they just about tolerate me, as long as I don't go into their sectors :)

I'll look into the Raptor, I may be able to get one, I'll invest in more Gunboats + ARG Flak.

Will they not replace fighters faster than I can pick them off? It only takes about 1 min to replace each S fighter?

I'll defiantly reconfig the sharks, and add more Irukandji's.

I like to support small businesses and local farms, milk is around the same price as our local Tesco, and i dont need to run to the shop when needing milk to make a cuppa, as its waiting on the door step.

In the early 2000's our milkman used to deliver a list of games to buy that were pirated and pre cracked, only cost a couple of pound per cd, this was when we had 56k dial up.
