Official faction leaders, your help is needed. - Jansen - 01-25-2015
We are currently working on a ID update, to make them easier to understand for new players/and all other players as well and to close some very confusing points that have caused issues in the past. This will also serve as an overall ID update of sorts which could be used to integrate recent RP into the IDs.
The process for this is going to be pretty simple, we have created more or less standard templates for the different faction types (Military, Police, Corporate, Pirate, Terrorist, Guild & autonomous, Quasi-Lawful). Now we need information on how to make them fit to your factions.
Be reasonable with what you submit, we will only include things that make sense for the faction and dont make the ID overpowered compared to others.
In cases of factions without official representative, no reply, or contradicting replys of multiple factions we will design the ID ourselves, unofficial factions are however allowed to bring in a proposal as well in these cases.
What we need is:
- Your faction name
- Name of the NPC faction
- Description of the NPC faction)
- Which type of faction does your faction belong to (See above)?
You could integrate those in the ID templates below as that would likely speed things up a lot:
- What does your faction do/What should it be allowed to do and where?
- Which special enemies/special cargo dislikes does your faction have?
- Which ships does your faction use (keep it reasonable)?
- What is your ZOI?
Just to show you what the new IDs could look like:
