' Wrote:The production capacity of my Basalt miner has been halved. In the time it takes to eject the twenty or so units the ship can hold I could have mined that same amount again. I'm entirely reliant on the whims and timetables and selections of haulers who generally prefer to buy ore direct from Hegemons.

Personally, I'm not happy with cargo going directly into your cargo hold. If your hold is full, could the ore just float in space where you shoot the rock? I don't see a problem with that system.

' Wrote:Maybe but since All my ship are now 40k away from each other each time I log. I'll need to run 2 fl on one computer. Two or more comp are forbidden .

' Wrote:You seem to be intent on spreading disinformation. The use of two pc's for cargo transfer is tolerated if not encouraged. Like I said there is nothing to stop you using F1 the same as always as long as the server isn't full or nearly so. I could make a demo video but I really can't be arsed.

and if you believe that not agreeing with your opinion is trolling, by all means, feel free to report me. your original point was that its allowed to multibox, while its not. if you have problems understanding my posts because you dont like the way I presented them to you, feel free to contact someone else about this rule.

two computers on the same ip address need to have two separate players controlling them
not allowed. havng two computers means you have an advantage over the player who only has one.
theoretically, you could have TEN windows of freelancer running at once. but i couldnt recommend it. its exploiting a loophole. how could you possibly rp 10 people at once? hell, why stop at ten? you could wake up real early, open 200 windows of freelancer, fill the server by yourself, and mine out every single ore field, moving from one to the other until they were all depleted. you'd have 400bn, and the rest of us would be skint

/t ... like /setmining or something, you type it, and as long as that target is close to you, you mine for him).
I didn't think this was that big of an issue, but if you're mining you will always target the new contacts to see
what IFF they show or what ship they fly. That's at least what I do. Losing a target can be annoying too. And
often you don't reallize that you have another ship targeted - so, it would be really nice to have this a bit
changed.

' Wrote:The problem with that system is that many ore packets in space seemed to generate a bit of server load - it's a performance measure. You are aware of the new feature where, if you have another ship selected, mining will fill it's hold, rather then your own? This allows small transports to effectively fill transports, it just means the transport has to be physically there (and therefor becomes a target itself, for unlawfuls, rather then hugging the nearest base until there's cargo). The Basalt however is a pain in the rear due to it's rearfiring turret, recommend using a Dacite or Mafic instead.

If you want temporary storage capacity, team up with a Hegemon and fill that using 2 miners. If you want to mine alone and generate an ore cloud to sell? Well. Too bad.
