Discovery 4.82 Beta features, bugs & suggestions - Korrd - 12-10-2006
The Freeport XV bartender has the wrong tooltiptext. It says "Freeport 9 Bartender"
Also, we are experiencing random crashes to desktop. Haven't found a pattern yet. It happens in bases.

That sometiems happens to me if Dock with the gas miners in Sigma 19. I did that ocne and then where I logged back on, I was in the center of sigma 13 :wacko:
Haven't found any major problems yet though.

More info on the crashes:
--While docked at Fp4, when i hit undock.
--After buying a huegenot, when i changed from the ship dealer to the parts dealer
--On FP9 once, trying to undock.
Also, it seems that after using the /beam command, if the game crashes, you will spawn right inside a star. (Fortunately my admin ship is tough)

QV, your never supposed to land on those gas miners. They aren't stations.

I had some crashes to desktop that closed the game however I never mentioned them because I'm using a different PC now and it's fine, figured it was a problem with the other PC.
All the crashes occured when trying to select missions in the bar at newark, the other bases in NY were fine cos I tested it (except the junker and rogue ones, wrong rep for that).
Also the raven claw seems to have a bug with gun mounts 7 and 8, they won't let you mount liberty class 9 weapons (the vengence and magma hammer) however I was able to mount class 6 guns on them without any problems.

Here are some suggestions.
First, when you have a battleship it is really hard to even get around. I suggest that battleships can equip an FTL Drive. For those of you who don't know what an FTL Drive is, it allows ships to basically teleport a distance. It works just like jump holes or jump gates but you can jump whenever to the waypoint specified. This jump drive idea comes from Battlestar Galactica (Re-Imagined Series) where the Galactica and its rag tag fleet of civilian ships are able to jump using FTL drives.
Second, there could be the possibility of fighters equiping an FTL drive. But with some major disadvantages. Here are the disadvantages I thought of:
* May only plot jumps inside the current system.
* Longer FTL spin up time.
* Extremely expensive.
* Very hard to find.

I say NO WAY for FTLs with the current running tactics. Cruise is annoying enough.

Found a error..
Freeport 4 says it is owned by the IMG. It should be owned by the Zoners.

Dab, from day one its always been the IMG, just one of those little anomalies. Probably
due to the fact that its in Magellan, not an out of the way border, or edge system.
Zoners got enough bases anyway ...
