Bug: Seeing Batle in New London From Frankfurt
====================


"Freelancer Twilight Zone" - While you read this think of the theme of Rod Sterling and the Background of the Twilight Zone!

Yeah you heard it correctly Freelancer Twilight Zone. There was a Major Battle going on it New London that I had no Idea about. Came from Munich, when I got to the T of Frankfurt at Mainz, WOW what a battle going on about 8-10k away, all I could think of is get my supplies and get the heck out of there. Grabbed my H-Fuel and Ran to New Berlin JG but before I could get there started passing a LNS War ships going away from the battle as I was going threw the Trade lanes to Mannheim Station. went around to the Hamburg JG, and before I got there I saw someone else heading to the battle. thought ok, glad he is going that way. Mind you at this Time I didn't know I was in the Twilight Zone Yet.

I went into Hamburg to Alster and before I got there wanted to see how Big this battle was. I remembered a couple names, But could not find anyone listed in Frankfurt on the chat Menu, this Puzzled me, I thought ok, the battle jumped to New London when I spotted all the ships I saw there. ok, went into Frankfurt again and saw them battling again, Thought what the Heck is going on, tried to write a few of them asking are they really in New London, guess they thought I was batty. while I was waiting on any response I went on to Munich and dropped my Load, went to a Base in Munich, and while I was in Cruse another Player that was Hostile to me went in front of me, tried to scan him but he was out of range before I had a chance, while trying to dock at the base I was trying to look up the player that almost SideSwiped me. Again this one as well was Listed in New London. ok, now I'm really starting to feel I'm in the Freelancer Twilight Zone.

Ok, I go back to my base, drop off the Supplies and go back to frankfurt, not expecting to see anyone, when I hit the Y In the trade lanes, I saw *VI|CPS-Armenia: When I came out of the Trade lane he said *VI|CPS-Armenia: You didn't saw me, fine? now this is adding to my Freelancer Twilight Zone pretty hard right now, but I told him Yes I saw him. being still puzzled I pulled up chat and was surprised that he was Really listed in Frankfurt. Kinda Blows my Mind about all this. thinking I don't know who is real and who isn't. and that's the real Truth. then made it to the T, again at Mainz, didn't see anyone at first. so went to where I saw the action. and one came into site, chased him for about 5-10 Minutes. and he lead me back to the group, I had asked him if he saw me he replied no he didn't. after he stopped I told CNS-Kalamata I would try to ram him. and see what happened. I did and he looked like his ship jumped. I went to try another and they all scattered going into battle, Don't think they had time for my Craziness. I took some more pics. and chased Vatan, he did some maneuvers and I was calling out what he did, and he told me yes that's the maneuvers he was doing. then he said Now cloaking. and he was gone. Vatan was the last one I knew where was and I also had my fun in the Freelancer Twilight Zone. Now I want out, lol how do you get off this Rodio lol. I don't know who is real and who is not lol

Going to let you ADMIN's Scratch your heads on this one, and lets see what you come up with.

I have a Titanic, with a IC ID.
P.S. I do have more pics

We are currently investigating this issue. As of next update MultiIntro will be (hopefully, temporarily) removed, and it is quite likely that we will disable docking modules temporarily as well to see if this resolves this issue. Our hook man, @Alex. is currently busy for the week, so please bear with us and be patient. Regarding general server stability, we did triangulate the source of a server crash and eliminated it, which should improve matters significantly next patch as well.
