Already checked, thanks. I have a question about one hing:

' Wrote:- Expanded the cargo types carried by various house haulers. Unlawfuls should now be able to virtually steal all base componentry from NPCs (including Cryos, Ammunition, Xenobiotic filters etc). Not every company carries everything, so think logically: "Does faction X import/export commodity Y which I need?". This took some doing, but is required for unlawfuls to be able to build up bases in an IRP fashion.
This is gonna be really cool if it's used properly. Uhh.. Is Cold Bay Depot still the only place to get Xenobiotic filters? >.> 'Cause.. if not.. I'm shooting some planetform heh.

Hey Aet, will there be an outcast shipline put in place with the next update or final release? If not, what about 4.87?

BUMP

There is a snubline planned for 4.87. There will be no additional new ships added to 4.86.

Then what about CTE civilian gunboat? Will it be in 4.87? Many corporations are waiting for it.


A dev's log. - AeternusDoleo - 05-09-2012

It will be. I specifically asked for one made so the civvies, pirate and lawful, have a funboat to play with. Still hoping someone will make a Renzu version (Kusari-ish style), and a Borderworlds version. These should both be of the very light variation - similar in size and power to the Bottlenose.

Also, small note to bargekeepers since I keep seeing threads of selling them for billions... Come the next update the countermeasure slot will be axed on it. Cloaking barges are a no-go. So if the idea is to do a long, slow trading haul while you're happily chewing through some fuel in that humongous hold of yours, might want to reconsider... It's considered an unintended exploit.

<strike>Crappy</strike> Not equal to Yukawa's monster, but potential of Bottlenose? Nothing closer to KuExp? If currently KuExp has nerf to 75% powercore with corp ID, then maybe CTE civ gunboat should has 75% of Ahoudori's stats? Hull, power, 7 turrets could stay... It's hard to ensure convoy's safety these days, especially if 5.7 traders exception would be removed. Not to mention mad ideas about allowing indie Vidars shooting transports.


A dev's log. - AeternusDoleo - 05-10-2012

Corps aren't military. The idea behind a light gunboat is that it is something that is cost-efficient and low maintenance, yet still hard hitting enough to defeat the occasional bomber. The class that Bottlenose is in fills that role adequately. It's also quite nice for Freelancers for this reason - hard hitting enough to hurt transports, elusive enough to be able to dodge caps - but when faced with heavier lawful gunboats it'll have a problem.

Indeed more OP not killable with less then 5 ships GS for everyone. Not only for BHG. We all would fly GSs.
