Discovery 4.81 features, bugs & suggestions

[Nightfall]

Only thing that is needed IMO is increasing the recharge a little, if it's not enough, then a little more. But I think a little is enough, say by a quarter at max. Try with that. The Capacity is OK.
Remember that fighting effectively in a BS should require some experience besides piloting it.

POSSIBLE SPOILER


Oops, forgot this: the jumphole in Puerto Rico to Humboldt is too close to sun corona (you get a warning about entering)

If the stars should appear one night in a thousand years, how would men believe and adore and preserve for many generations the remembrance of the city of God? - from 'Nightfall' by I. Asimov
The Outcasts consider Siniestre Nube a sacred place for several reasons. Early explorers discovered a jumphole within the depths of the cloud that leads to a strange world of ringed stars and strange craft. All ships in the burrial ground are placed facing that hole to honor the Alien Spirits. - An Outcast rumor

Bug:

The Corsair ship around Cambridge (and perhaps all of Bretonia) do not drop Corsair pilots. they drop only normal pirate pilots.

Both corsair and outcast LFs only drop pirate pilots, this is beacuse they haven't been around long enough to get themselves a bad rep with other factions.

The HFs and VHFs do drop corsair pilots.

@Dab & Marauder, it's neither a bug nor a "fighter class". It has to do with the level of the NPC, lower level corsairs and outcasts drop Pirate Pilots (Below 15) To prevent people from farming low level fighters for pilots that sell for craploads. The fighter thing is just a coincidince as there are no high leve light/medium fighters.

@Nightfall, You know that is actually a good idea. 25% Increase in recharge.. That would be 45,000 putting the capacitor at 225,000 recharge.

[Dab]

I think I had to redownload it like 4 times to fix that.. Or did I reinstall FL...?

I feel lucky, as far as I know I'm one of very few people who haven't had any problems between versions.. Guess it helps that I haven't used any other mods other than Disco on this install.

@DO: The infocard for pirate pilots says pretty much exactly what I posted.

Correction:

After talking to other cruiser users and doing more tests I think the only major problems with the nomad cruiser now is it's power supply and hitbox.

@Igiss: thank you for correcting the previous bug that made it highly unbalanced.

Hey! I love my new Crow! You made it a 2 seater so I can take the wife for a spin around the moon... She hates sittin in the cargo hold. Really though you had me worried with that must rebye stuff, but I downloaded new VER and it did all that stuff on its own... Lost a couple guns but what the heck still got a lot of Whoopass in her. Great job. :nyam:

PS. still think we could lose the CD on the train.

You still have to re-buy the ship winkie, though it's just the ship not the weapons or equipment.

And you'll have to get a different one before re-buying or you'll get kicked for cheating.
