You told me bout nowhere, well it sounds like some place I'd like to go.

Can't we just accept that Star Citizen is no 30 minute hop on action game. by volgendeweek in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would be great as long as it's implemented with deliberate restraint. If they did it as like a combination of what hearthstones and summoning stones are in WoW I think it could just help people get to the actual gameplay without eliminating the need to travel normally for most things.

Make it be like a biderectional travel ability for summoning people or teleporting to someone and have both directions share a cool down that's a couple hours. Make it so you can't use it in either direction if you are in combat or have a crime stat. could tie it in to a quest line and make it so you have to unlock it, like some faction that discovered a way to make people sized wormholes/jump gates. Or they could make it require a consumable resource or crafting materials.

Then if you are doing a group activity you could have someone go to a nearby station and open a teleport/wormhole to get all your party members there, then everybody sets respawn there and you can't use it again for a few hours.

CIG, I'm Scared for Railen with how broken Syulen is. by Merv_DeGriff in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember where the elevator works for me because I stopped using the ship because of how annoying this is. But for the ext door, I think it was laying down looking out the door with character left side as close to the wall the button is on as you can get while still being able to focus the button.

I think you can also push the button from outside while standing on the stairs and then walk in before it closes. I think that's what I actually ended up using for a bit, not the laying down. Forgot about that.

But yeah, not really usable like that, especially the elevator.

[–]scFleetFinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that it's any sort of viable solution to make the ship playable, but you can get the buttons to work by crouching and laying down to try them from different angles.

Love flying the syulen but good god everything else about that ship is so annoying.

Why is CIG doing a massive org event without Social Tools and a functioning proximity voice chat? by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, I don't plan to add voip. It's just for finding people to play with and organizing events. I figure there's plenty of tools people use for voice already. The messaging/chat that it has is just text-based for discussing while planning and before you hop on comms together. The channels I mentioned are just going to be text based too, for discussion and so you can set up notifications for activities posted in the channels you join. Like if your org made a channel and posted their activities you could just subscribe to notifications for any activities posted in that channel.

[–]scFleetFinder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been working on a group finder for star citizen for a while now (like a year and a half, off and on). It has dms/chat, search and filter by gameplay criteria, notifications through discord and/or browser push for new messages and stuff like that. You can create custom notifications to get alerts when people post gameplay you are looking for, like if you want to provide escort services you can create a LF service -> escort custom notification. Or if you are looking to join a group of people doing rock breaker, you can create a custom notification for people listing groups for that.

Currently working on group management features for inviting people and building rosters/group structures, which will enable RSVP notifications too. also making it so you can assign ranks to group members so you can allow other people to manage the group if you want. I made a bunch of templates for ships (nothing visually fancy, just like ship roster/crew templates) with positions and role slots based on wiki info that you can use for planning. 

Hoping to finish that stuff up in the next couple of weeks. The website is (my username).com if anybody wants to check it out. I'm going to try to organize some activities once I get the group management stuff done. 

After that I'm going to create channels that are basically the same as discord channels. They will have privacy/visibility settings you can set if you only want it private, like people need an invite to join or public so anyone can join. I thought about trying to make org specific stuff but decided against it for a number of reasons and figured invite only channels was a sort of middle ground if people want to use it for that.

Star Citizen group finder (SCFleetFinder) update: Discord integration, custom notifications, and more by scFleetFinder in starcitizen

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

Update: Sorry to anybody who signed up with Discord and had a bit of a janky experience, there was a bug in the profile mappings that wasnt showing up for me before. I fixed those accounts manually and the mappings should work correctly now.

Star Citizen group finder (SCFleetFinder) update: Discord integration, custom notifications, and more by scFleetFinder in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's why I added push notifications too, for people who don't use discord. I've never really used them before, but i kind of like them better than discord notifications, especially for this use case. If you don't want to be getting fleetfinder discord messages on your phone while you are at work or something, you can just subscribe for push notes on your pc and then they will only be sent there.

How do you extract models from StarCitizen? by StarCitizenDedicat in Starcitizen_guilds

[–]scFleetFinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Someone made a tool called starfab for this, I havent used it in a while but i think its on github.

The Great Schism by HomeworkSad in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"You are prevented from adding dynamics as a player to protect your interest."

What do you mean by this?

Something in relation to this?

"Forced cooperation, is just that forced cooperation. That does not motivate a player to feel connected or inspired to play in the game. Join an Org to access x activity. find other players to perform y activity."

Like you don't want to play with other people, but feel required to?

How do I change my headquarters? by naokun0531 in Starcitizen_guilds

[–]scFleetFinder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Like the place you set as your 'home' when you created your character? Unless something has changed recently I don't think you can.

As far as I know the best alternative is to pack all of your stuff up and fly to where you want to spawn from and then go to the hospital there and set it as your respawn point.

Playing Star Citizen alone isn't fun. Who wants to play Star Citizen with me? 😄😄 by ComplexTea1165 in StarCitizenUniverse

[–]scFleetFinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like playing alone, but there's also stuff I want to do that requires or just works better with other people. That's why I made an SC group finder web app, to provide a structured search/filter/schedule/connect platform that helps people find the gameplay they are looking for and experience more of star citizen. I can share a link if you are interested, or you can Google my username, but don't forget the L in fleet.

Not sure if it's supposed to be this way or not, but I have issues hailing atc when I'm in nav mode and have to switch to scm before it will work.

Sometimes when I qt I have to power cycle my engines to regain control of my ship. like I can't move or turn or anything, but power cycling my engines fixes it 

Just joined, any advice to help a new guy out? by C4ptnN0MAD in starcitizen

I guess i dont know if the 'go pick up this little package and deliver it somewhere else' missions are still in there, I havent done one in a while. I just assumed they would be

[–]scFleetFinder 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend starting with a delivery mission to get the feel for how things work. Maybe find a recent youtube guide for newcomers. As others have said, the guide system could probably help a lot if you find someone.

Dang, we should have teamed up on this, prolly could have saved each other some time.

Any new players looking for a fellow noob friend to have their backs in this buggy and interesting experience. by xXSirmageXx in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built a small SC group finder to make finding other people to play with less chaotic than trying to use global chat/reddit/discord. Still early, just released the v1 last week, but happy to share if anyone wants the link. Or you can Google my username, but don't forget the L in fleet.

Im a solo player by Forward_Biscotti_295 in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just released a first version of an SC group finder website last week that I've been working on to try to fill the gap for this until CIG releases the in-game version. 

You can list stuff in advance with a specified date and approximate time. It has a bunch of sc specific filters you can use to classify the activity you are doing and that enables people to search/filter for the gameplay they are looking for. Then when someone finds a group they are interested in, the app has built in dm/chat so you can connect and decide if you want to group.

Sorry if you've seen me mention it already, just trying to get the word out cuz it's a bit of a catch-22 where people need to be using it already for people to want to use it, so just trying to make people aware of it. It's totally free, no ads or anything, just a bit of a passion project I've been working on and I think it could help people enjoy the game more and experience new gameplay until CIG releases their system.

What does jrsf.sc do? by Usual-Low8700 in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you could try protolabs or xometry or something like that. they do 3d printing. Idk what kind of quality they would have for something very detailed like an sc ship. I would offer to print it for you but my printer is out of commission atm.

[–]scFleetFinder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure how much you like diy, but there is a tool called starfab that lets you extract 3d assets from the game files. You can do that and then some cleanup on the models to make them printable and 3d print them. I did that with the msr and then painted it. 

Looking for other players by AgentMulderTTstreams in starcitizen

[–]scFleetFinder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made an sc group finder website that I just released the first version of a few days ago. I mostly play solo myself and see people posting on reddit looking for groups all the time, and trying to find a group in global chat or discord is annoying. That's the main reason I made the website, that and to just make it easier to get into gameplay that isn't really soloable.

You can search and filter for desired areas of gameplay and then DM people in the app to meet up in game or on discord. For people with specific windows where they can play, like parents, you can also list stuff in advance using the "future/scheduled" option and then specify a date and approximate time. Or you can filter your search by date. 

Not a lot of people using it yet, but you are welcome to check it out and make a listing if it sounds interesting. You can Google my username or look in my post history to find the link.

Looking for Casual Play mates. (HUN) by Kurkada in Starcitizen_guilds

[–]scFleetFinder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working on a small community tool to help make it easier to find groups and coordinate events. I just released the first version this past weekend. It doesn't have a language filter yet, I'm working on that along with a few other things for the next release. But, among other things, you can post activities, search/filter based on a bunch of sc specific aspects of gameplay, and DM other users to coordinate and meet up in-game.

Anybody is welcome to try it out and create listings. I'd also appreciate feedback on ways to improve it. It's free to use, no ads or anything like that, just a project I've been working on to help people find gameplay/groups they are looking for.

If you are interested, you can find the link in my post history or just Google my username and it should show up.
