Someone logging out will despawn all of their ships.

The quantum fallouts are likely at the center of a 3- circle Venn diagram with each circle labelled "30 ticks/second server", "poorly implemented local physics grids" & "near-relativistic speeds"

So when someone nicks your ship, the only thing you can do is restart your client and go through pains of spawning it again? Lmao.

The Chairforce is training more drone pilots than the real thing, so we're pretty much on the swarming drone horizon. Just waiting on telepresence tanks, and then I'll try to move to Mars.

I thought quantum leaps cause it and it occasionally happens to everyone because of bugged physics. But maybe only with stolen ships, after all.

Nah there's definitely a way for people to make their ship disappear when it's been stolen. Knowing this I just make sure when I steal a to fly it straight up from the pad, flip over then warp 9 into any targets of opportunity or the station itself.

He is. He's a people cat; he plays at the vet's office and even purred when they drew blood. That said, he didn't know what to do when he met Bootcha--a much bigger alpha cat. Finnegan sat sullenly in a box and eyeballed Bootcha the whole time.

This is absolutely correct. There's a real problem with them at the moment as lots of dickheads are watching Game of Thrones and then buying a Husky, then discovering they do not make good pets. I was working with some in Lapland before Xmas and they are incredible creatures - absolutely immense dogs, but definitely not pets.

No, just go spawn a new one. There's no tracking of what you've previously spawned, just a list of what ships you've got available that you can select from ad nauseum.

Remember: the persistent universe is neither persistent, nor a universe. Discuss.

Granted there was that 1 awful page too, which got all E/N and poo poo and even a bit of D&D sprinkled in between...but in any case.



Now I'll probably forget this thread for a week or two thanks to XCOM 2 and see just how many new posts will be shitted up in it by the time I return. Given 2 new pages were made while I was catching up, I imagine it will be quite insurmountable.

Star Citizens a really bodgy product. If a refund is not processed, I will be forced to call my bank and request a boomerang on my pledges.

Can you spawn more ships from inside of a ship? Like, you get 50 people in your super multicrew ship and then respawn it to kill everyone inside.

I don't know what causes it, either them respawning their ship or them rage quitting the server but your stolen ship can just disappear right out from under you with no warning. That's what happens to pgabz at the beginning of the video.

For muh immersions, ships cannot be spawned anywhere from a menu, but only at one of the ship terminal rooms behind janky, slow-animated & often-breaking airlock doors and slightly-less-often-breaking interior doors.

You could jam a bunch of people onto a ship under the guise of some crazy mostly-invisible, noodle-box-pushing "emergent gameplay" and then wait until you're in the middle of nowhere then log out, leaving them floating like the detritus they are.

My childhood dog was a husky and he was a the best drat dog, take your slander back.



He did tear up the back yard a bit and also bit a dude in the rear end who hopped our back fence, but aside from that, he wasn't aggressive at all.
