Hiya, long time lurker here, comin out for the grand release of Epic(err.. Torn Stars). Gotta say, amazing job all around. Congrats to you guys.
Compliments out of the way, i have a few suggestions/bugs i’ve noticed.
1. Customs. This is a cool idea, but it’s implemented badly.
1a. I’ve told the outlaw’s in Bumpy’s Star to piss off 100 times now while going from one side of the L-point to the other, and nothin. They are still neutral.1b. This is kind of a cheat/exploit.. In systems where you have to pay customs when exiting, you can completely bypass them very easily, simply by making your ships stop anywhere in system(away from the gate obviously), letting customs scan you and say you have nothing, and then telling them to form up and proceeding through the gate. No customs payments, and no bad feelings.
2. Autopilot, or lack thereof. I understand there was a bug with the autopilot and wingmen, which can happen. The problem here is both the ingame map, and the UniGUI location finder are clunky to use, when you have to pick a new location ever single step of the way on your trade route. Left left up down right right up left left left up left up right trigger.. i’ve done that particular combination ten billion times now i believe. Suggestion here: Modify the UniGUI so your favorites in that system are right above the close/exit button, and make a single click activate the waypoint.
3. Ships.
3a.The tug has only one turret.. is this correct? iirc from EOC it had 1 turret slot and 2 pylon mounts. If so, no biggy, i can get wingmen.
3b. the storm petrel has no capsule drive, which kind of makes it pointless to buy, not to mention is far to expensive at 200k… 100-150k would be more appropriate given it’s capabilites.
4. Is there any way to prevent my wingmen from getting attacked if they happen to ram another ship? this has happened several times now, when bad AI pilots rammed each other, and then the escorts go after my frieghter. Which means i either take a faction hit, or load a save.
Oh well, just some food for thought for a patch/release of Unstable space or whatever. Thanks again for the great mod. I’m off to Kronholm to pick up some more reactor parts:D
