    Cap ships

    i have flown a kamekh. the thing is supposed to be a heavy corvette or a light destroyer. it seems like it handles better than a broadsword!

    what he's talking about is - if you are full (which happened to me on my demon) you can't swap guns around. they take up no space, but the game thinks they do, to the point where i had three fusions and a tach and 0 of 12. sold the tach, still 0 of 12. couldn't buy a fourth fusion. couldn't buy...

    My Fleet

    'buy', in this case, means 'pay for the ship to be shipped to you so you can switch to it and pilot it'. if you go back to the base where you bought the new ship, the 'purchase' price for the old one will be 0.00.

    Privateer Remake 1.0 - Bugs

    i think matching speed with a ship is something should be kept around... just remove the ability to therefore go faster than your ship's top speed. meanwhile, the game doesn't handle multiple joysticks - it only detects the first.

    Cap ships

    it should have a purple (tachyon?) nose cannon but yeah, kamekh are FAR too manueverable, both as compared to the original and for a ship of the size they're supposed to be

    Bolt speeds

    that's exactly what i'm doing. it takes a very light touch, but it's doable. abuse afterburners and the shelton slide to get distance, then autotracking won't matter. (in fact thanks to that corkscrew move, autotracking hurts at distance. fortunately it can be turned off.)

    Draymans had multiple turrets.

    thehawk: i've already done such a set of where-you-go-in-each-game maps - i'll dig them up and find somewhere to put them online - they're too big to just attach to a post.

    Bolt speeds

    the secret to bounty missions is this: you're only being paid to kill one guy, and that's usually the guy you're targeting when you enter the zone. lock the target, kill him, and afterburner out, slide-spinning if you have to to spread damage between shield quadrants. if they continue to...

    Lost... after blowing up steltek drone...

    long shot: have you edited your saved game or any other game files at all? maybe somehow you threw off the little bit that tells the game what point you're at in the storyline...

    Privateer Remake 1.0 - Bugs

    apologies for the dbl post, but there's no edit button on my most recent. cargo prices really need work. i just saw iron priced lower than generic food on an agricultural planet. not to mention that (despite all the dialogue indicating a ton of it goes there) you can't sell brilliance on...

    Modding privateer

    Dragonfly: you may have edited the wrong value. get openoffice - it's free-as-in-gratis *and* -as-in-libre and the hacking is a lot easier when you have the column titles. meanwhile, i hacked my fighters (centurion and stiletto) to have a *little* more upgrade space... but they keep...

    tractor beam won't retract if not an active gun tarsus in rf is supposed be able to mount better reactors/shields (4/3, i think) the game will let you mount afterburners on a broadsword, but they don't work some ships that are supposed to arrive in waves don't - this makes (for instance)...

    RF upgrades

    also, save, quit and restart - the items available for purchase seem to depend on the status of the saved game loaded at game start, not the status of the current game. of course, since i assume you quit out to post, you may already know this.

    Lost... after blowing up steltek drone...

    i don't think you can find menesch until you have gotten the tip on his location in-game. meanwhile, are you sure you flew *and succeeded* all the other fixers' missions?

    is there someone in the sector who implied you should come back after you'd done some more work?

    a fixer at the pirate base in pentonville just gave me a cargo mission ... to the pirate base in pentonville. easiest 6kcred i ever made ETA: and it's happened eight times in a row so far. takeoff, land, between 6kcred and 11kcred each time.
