option to start in a non liberty house on server - masternerdguy - 12-03-2009

I am tired of the system now where you are forced to start in penn on the server!
There need to be options to start in any system on the server.

Advantages
  • It will make characters easier to set up
  • It would dissipate the Liberty Blob
  • It would NOT affect your standings to someone cant just choose to start in Iota and undock and be hunky dory
Disadvantages
  • Idiots resetting to Iota or Kappa and getting pissed on the forums when they die when they undock
How to accomplish this:

We need either a program or an FLHook script that allows you to say /newchar SYSTEM.

/newchar SYSTEM would put the char it is used on in a starflier with the default start with 5k credits or wutever we start with. So there would be no advantage to spamming this command for more $$$ or a better ship. /newchar would be like hitting the reset button on the char it is used on.

Obviously /newchar will ask if you are sure you want to do this.

EDIT 1: So it takes the default new char and puts it in the system of your choice. No cash bonus, no rep fixes. Just you and ur starflia

Look at some of the server announcements.
You'll see that we have this already.

/restart Kusari
/restart Bretonia
/restart Rheinland

/restart Outcast
/restart Corsair

/restart Miner


Etc.

Any system?

What's wrong with a few minutes of travel time, may I ask?




If you could start in any system, there would be easy opportunities for code farming.

possibly, but if we made code farming punishable with a PERMENANT ip ban it wouldnt be a problem.

You...just...failed. Punishing Farming with a Permaban? the hella are you thinking? Restart is fine enough, Just needs more factions. But the " BANHAMMER PLUGS HOLES" does not work.

the ban hammer plugs every hole.

And secondly, it wont rep fix and most peeps are hostile to the really tough NPCs that exist (by default) when they make a new char.

And guess wut those tough NPCs patrol many wrecks.

Most factions are neutral to New chars. the banhammer does not plug every hole.

I hereby praise Eris, Jahve, Allah, Buddha, Jesus, FSM and any other religious deity, that YOU aren't involved in running the Discovery RP 24/7 server.
