The Wall & Dyson Sphere - Camtheman Of Freelancer4Ever - 08-24-2009
Ok, I just went to the wall system and this really is bad...

The Omicron Major with no player access, The dyson sphere is unused, you cannot get to it because the gate on the wall doesnt work. Both the Omicron Majors have great RP oppertunnities, which is why there needs to be a jump hole to Omicron Major (Dyson Sphere) from the Wall Omicron Major... Not to mention there needs to be no edge to the wall.

There is nothing to be done about the wall itself. In campaign if you attempted to fly out the game would instantly end the mission not allowing you to peek at the edge. But since there is no mission there you aren't limited to the area in the center.
Great opportunities in terms of roleplay would also require great re-haul of both systems before they could be put into use, therefore it's closed for indefinite period. The sheer amount of work as well technological issues and limitations requires a lot of time and effort to make this place useful and fitting it's importance. So nomad park is closed own. Till better times, so to speak. When those "better" times come? I don't know. May be in .87, may be in 5.x, may be never at all.
If you look closely enough there is a sign on the floor portal saying "out of order".

There isn't really much use for it at the moment. Some people go there to harvest NPCs.

Really?
***kinda spoiler warning?***
Theres a bug that lets you get inside the sphere.
The Wall & Dyson Sphere - darthbeck - 08-24-2009
does it matter that the wall ends? just have your RP in the middle, hiding in a trench or something.
and as for the inside of the dyson sphere, i dont really think it is needed. it would just be one more system for the order to keep people from exploring.
but it would be amusing to go back into the sphere.

It's pretty cool yeah, maybe make it into a crazy nomad gift shop...
Heh

There is a way into the inside of the sphere last time I checked, but it was completely silly and made no sense.
Does the system still have that weird square NPC spawn zone?
The Wall & Dyson Sphere - Treewyrm - 08-24-2009
Quite frankly if it's to serve RP purpose it would need titanic work to be done here first. Don't see people queuing up for the task though.
Yes, there is a bug allowing to enter, but it'll void any RP thereafter as it's pretty much circumventing game mechanics.
' Wrote:Does the system still have that weird square NPC spawn zone?Yup, it's the same square that was used to define the borders of mission, i.e. flying out of it terminates the mission instantly. The system did not receive any update except replacing SP NPCs with proper ones.

Know what's ironic?
The biodomes in your ship use the Dyson sphere's texture.
:3

lol yeah, that is hallarious. What is the way into the dyson sphere? I want to get in there...

The same bug that lets you get into the Dyson Sphere also allows you to enter the Lair in whichever system its in..
Of course, with both, if you try them, be prepared to lose ALL CARGO AND AMMUNITION. The bug only works one way, so the only way you'll be getting out of there is a little blue message and a respawn screen.
I could tell you, but I'd rather no one get sanctioned/banned for using the bug. Though if the Admins say it's alright to tell, then I will.
