Re: The New Rant Thread

New rant - car hire using a 3rd party verification tool. Wanted to hire a bigger car to take family in comfort up to Scotland for a family wedding. All pre-requested and but went into the hire place to confirm and show licence. Was told, in front of others waiting, that I had failed the 3rd party ve...

Re: 6.20 Erlking Travel Drive not working

Aaah! Yes mine does have Flight Assist software. If that's the problem then it would nice if either it came fitted, or you had a hint saying it was missing when you try to traveldrive. Interestingly, the in-game encylopaedia entry for Flight Assist software does not mention that it is needed for tra...

Re: 6.20 Erlking Travel Drive not working

I had a look at the save and can confirm the save issue in my vanilla 6.20 too. I don't have that problem with my own Erlking. I checked it for stuck/embedded rocks or deployables (which is a fairly common cause of traveldrive blocking) but cannot see any on map or suit fly-by. I even checked the fr...

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

Both sides have tended to show off their equipment captures at one time or another. I suspect this is more for internal reasons rather than others.

Re: Xenon are trying to assimilate me

A link to a vanilla save where the issue applies would be needed for the devs to investigate further.

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

Given the strange mix of different equipment types and of different origins in use by Ukraine, I think they would be more worried about the loss of specially trained operators than of some of the equipments.

Re: 6.20 Mirage mod incorrect behaviour with comply

It may not be intended that the Mirage mod prevents *all* detections of illegal wares (also it does not work at all on illegal inventory items). See what dev j.harshaw said about this here.

Re: Make Casinos Functional Please!!

Not for me thanks. If I should ever want to play those (not that I do) then I can do it properly on my real PC and not waste dev resources and time in X4 for something probably done less well and that would probably be used once or twice and then forgotten by most players (in my opinion). Even any g...

Re: [7.00 BETA 3] X4 Foundations Bug Exposed: In-Sector vs. Out-of-Sector AI Combat

Hi, the devs cannot investigate anything like that from a video but would need a link to a vanilla save. Please also describe what you think is behaving too differently or going wrong as different devs work on different aspects of combat and they will not all watch the video to see if it is relevant...

I think he's just been told the docking fees there, and he has nowhere else he can go.

Re: What are you watching now ? Movies and TV

If you want a fairly easy-to-watch US White House drama series (no, not the Trump trials) , then Designated Survivor is not bad. It's a bit like a Tom Clancy plot along with seemingly realistic political and conscience-led intrigues. Good dialogue and pretty good acting by the principal cast too. (K...

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

@ mr.WHO: It might be an idea to always say what the link will show and what you think about it. People tend to be wary about clicking unexplained links, especially here.

Re: Will developers create racial differences in AI?

At first reading I thought that you were arguing against yourself in liking racial differences in equipment and ship performance yet complaining that the Split go for firepower and speed at the expense of shielding (as per their lore as a fearless/reckless warrior race). Having read it again, what y...

Re: [1269]Hatikvah Arms Delivery - Fixed in HF2 ?

@ bufi: The devs cannot investigate without a link to a vanilla save, and this should be posted in a new thread along with the supporting information in the public beta forum anyway. The previous issues reported here were either fixed or could not be replicated by the devs.
