Researcher ID

[Shryke]

Collecting samples isn't really research, but I won't argue semantics.

It is research.

For example, I want to study the vegetation on the side of the roads in God knows what country and write an article about them in a science magazine, whatever. Do I have to take a whole truck (cruisers)? Why can't I just take my SUV (fighter) or my 4x4 (bomber). Anyway, I made this topic hoping that it will be fixed in the next version. I decided to use the FL ID and write my own infocard.

Why are you trying to compare a unrealistic space game where a little weeny fighter can knock an entire battlecruiser off balance, and send it spinning, to real life.

Researchers are supposed to be scientists and such. They're not supposed to be involved in fights. They're supposed to be "researching" stuff.

EDIT: For the truck, SUV and 4x4 analogy ... allow a fighter with NO guns. trucks, SUV's and 4x4's are not tanks.

Look, a lot of the ID restriction don't make much sense, hopefully they will get fixed.

For now, I suggest you get a freighter instead. Freighters are more fit for this kind of work.

Agree

FL MOD(EL)MAKING: TOOLS, RESOURCES, TUTORIALS AND MY SHIPS (OLD)

I am on discord: Roal-Yr#5994, I don't log on forum more than a few times a year.
