    green egg followed me to righteous fire

    Uh oh. This is a bug. You have managed to start RF before the Privateer campaign has completed.

    Missile Slingshot bug

    Cargo does float around with zero or near-zero velocity after an explosion. It only takes off when you bump it. I beleive cargo disintegrated if you bumped/rammed it in the original, but my memory is hazy. Regardless, the high resulting velocity makes perfect sense in the context of momentum...

    Something wrong with a pencil and paper? :)

    ITTS bug?

    It aims for the ITTS. It works almost like lead computing optical sights (gun sights on fighter aircraft) work. A LCOS computer says "your target is flying in this direction at this speed. Based on this information and the current speed, direction, and acceleration of your own aircraft, your...

    Cycling MFD screens

    No, there is not. Press "g" or "w" to see weapons.

    roman lynch

    That's what Miggs says. But in your conversation with Lynch before you launch, you are told to go to Newcastle to contact a man called Smythe. Smythe supposedly has information about the Oxford library. Instead you get attacked by Miggs (Lynch's pal) and no one is waiting for you at...

    The Proper Remake?

    Right now, no. Thankfully, HellcatV is the head Vegastrike coder. :)

    on transitioning to RF...

    IMO it is preferable to have a slightly discotinous and disconcerting transition into RF than it is to invent some wacky and out-of-place story.

    Cycling MFD screens

    I don't beleive there is a way to cycle "o" brings up your objectives screen unless you're in the Tarsus. "O" supposedly blanks the MFD, although I have never tried it.

    The Proper Remake?

    Then I'd just have to make a new list every time someone added something, and you'd have to edit your post again... Kind of an infinite loop. :)

    Observations and some tips

    The pirate in me cringes at a non-defenseless Drayman. :) I haven't played as a pirate in the Remake yet... I'll have to do that soon.

    The Proper Remake?

    Surprised no one's said this yet: - 4-way armor values - 4-way armor damage displayed in targetting MFD Other stuff: - Cutscene of Steltek towing away derelict base - Shield cycle by level. If you have Lvl1 shields, they can either be on or off. If you have level 2, they can be on full...

    Mil Spec Centurion

    The following is said nicely, calmly, and without the intent to argue. Please read it as such. What is your definition of "fan"? I am a fan of the original; I owned the original Privateer, I liked it, I played it a lot, etc. To me that means I was (and still am) a fan. Clearly we have...

    Righteous Fire Missions not shown as active

    Huh? I don't think that's true...

    Mil Spec Centurion

    Understood. So this is another one of your cute jabs at the Remake. Also understood. It's getting kind of old. The developers have already said that there will probably be no milspec ships in the next release. Until then, people will continue to answer questions about them.

    Mil Spec Centurion

    What do you mean by "Space Forces"? Organizations like the Confed and the militia?

    Demon Or Centurion ?

    On a Centurion, it should be. On ships that do not support that capability (i.e. Demon) you can buy tractor capability for the missile rail and then put a tractor beam there.

    Can't use tractor beam?

    Use F9 to match speed with your target, then chop your throttle to zero and afterburn to within 1000m. Turn your ship so that your turret is facing the cargo, and then you should be able to jump into the turret and tractor easily.

    on transitioning to RF...

    Neat ideas. I wonder if they can all be worked into the engine... One problem with this, though, is that it takes away the ability to go flying around with your boosted gun blowing up ships in a single shot. While it certanly gets old after a while, I wouldn't want it to end before I was ready.
