Allright Sarah...where are you at?  I've arrived at the Klingon-Federation Border. Grid 16-9.

I won't stray more than a hex for the next hour or so.

Righto, thanks Q.  I'm keeping a list of bugs/fixes and their status at the top of this thread:
http://www.dynaverse.net/forum/index.php?topic=163371030.msg1122757948#msg1122757948

I'll try to keep on top of all the bug reports that come in on different threads and consolidate them there.

EDIT: BTW - if we run into some scenarios that are bugged too badly and/or can't be fixed in time for any given server run I can disable those scenarios in the final build.

thanks for the feedback!

Q, sorry I missed you.

The new missions seem to work well on the test server.  The only downside to it is that all missions are mandatory, even in your home space.  Other than that I'm having a ball running protection rackets and blasting rivals. 


Edit:  Getting the chat working is a must (if it's an easy fix, that is).  Voice comms are a no-go for me.  It would be cool to hail fellow players.

Must be something with the Cartels, because I got from Earth to the Border Region without taking a mission.  Missions in Nuetral or Enemy space are mandatory.

Sarah:  I saw you hanging around in 12, 11.  I tried to get to you, but each time I couldn't pull it off.  Another time perhaps?

I'm always glad to duel with a gentleman.  Let me know what name you're flying under, and what voice comm you're on.  I can hear you, but can't respond.  Hopefully we can get the chat fixed. 

It may have something to do with being a pirate.  I'm flying Korgath and even home space has all mandatory missions.

I actually do not have a voice chat program installed yet.  I had it on my old computer, but I haven't gotten around to getting it on this one yet.  I may do that later this afternoon.

I'll be at work until about 11 Central tonight, but I have Friday off.  Although I plan on going to College Station later that day.

That'll be a result of the server political settings - if your cartel is enemies with the overlapping empire then you'll draw hostile missions. 

Do some right clicking to find an empire your cartel is friendly with, then work your way over there and you can carve out a pirate homeland free of mandatory missions.  If I get the chance to fly a little today then I might do that with the Wyldefire ;)

I can get on now, is anyone else on?

There's no point in doing the server unless we can get some PvP action going to test the MP stuff.

Heck...why not, I'll be in and around 16-9.  Unless I see some pretty heavy activity within five hexes of me, I won't stray far.  I'll be on for another hour, some one come get me, I'll be flying an F-CC+. :)

Did it crash?

Oh well, thanks for letting me wing with you Sarah, I don't know what happened that last time we tried.  but afterwards I couldn't get a mission to draft.  Then the server went down.

That last time I drafted you I got the full countdown on the Briefing screen.  You weren't there so I warped out.  Then I tried grabbing you one more time but I missed you.  I ran the mission and when I got out I had lost my connection to the server.  It wasn't there when I looked. 

Other than that it was cool flying with you, Q.  I hope we get to do it again.

OK I guess this means that Ill have to download all the new missions. Get on over to the ED server and get off the 24/7 roleplay Freelancer server. Break out my Trusty Z-DF+ and raise a little Heck..... did any one say "Deep Strike" ;D

Sorry folks, I had to reset the DB because I'm dumbass.   She's up right now.

I'll be home in a few hours, I'll restart it if is crashes after I return.

Does resetting the data base mean I need to pick a race again? 


P.S.  Way to go on getting chat working.
