' Wrote:I wondered if there should be something extra that encourages players to go towards altair. (non-nomad ones) instead of just looking, but that is not just another codename, something along the lines of nomad powercell in

Would make for some extra RP opportunities for the order.
Indeed, there is a reason to go there actually. Once you are close to it open your radar loot section list and look out for something interesting in it and I am sure you will find. It isn't codename, but at least something for the time being, and back then was probably the best thing I could have put there without causing any issues all around. Later I'll try to come up with some special roleplay commodities which could be found in certain places and/or dropped from certain NPCs.
' Wrote:HOWEVER, if I try to look at it in FLE... Things show up weird (lots of zones/atmospheres are at weirds places). Even in game, things can show up weird on the nav map.
Well, we all know that FLE is very limited, so I didn't use it at all, instead I have created the systems in 3ds max and used a little maxscript tool I wrote to export parameters into usable game format. This has allowed me to get around numerous shortcomings of FLE but as a result the systems are not editable in it. The limitations apply to FLE, but not to FL itself, which is why in-game everything is fine. Don't save systems in FLE, instead use Notepad++ or any other safe text editor to find out how things were made.

Originally I wasn't intending to modify Omicron 99 at all. Just thought I could add bits quickly seeing as 4.85 got constantly pushed back. Perhaps if I knew when the version was going to be released I might have done a lot more to the system.
Omicron Iota was the first system I modded for Freelancer, pretty much it's my first try at those things.
