Of course, you could create a Xenon station owned by the Argon (or yourself), and you can dock with it freely. I scripted in a Xenon Shipyard owned by the Argon, and added Xenon ships and Xenon stations to it - I can successfully buy anything, including the vaunted Xenon SPP. So what did the inside...

They can't be hacked. You might be able to script into one, but I'm not sure. I would imagine there are no graphics for the insides anyway, as it was never thought necessary.

They are placed there by the Underware Gnomes, secret directors of X2 Economy and Undergarments, local 554.

Usually the transports are in the same system as the shipyard. If you don't have a duplex scanner they can be hard to find, as they will always be on the opposite side of the sector from where you entered. They are fairly large, so sometimes just visually looking around the sector you can find them ...

I think it has to be one or two beyond the rating that allows you to dock. The mission you mention may have been offered at a Teladi station, but might have been offered by the Split or Paranid. You could always go kill pirates, Khaak, or Xenon in Split or Paranid space until they like you.

I believe this is a 'feature' of 1.4 that if you are on auto-pilot and fly over a container you will pick it up automatically. Note this does not work on 'live' missles

You can make money with them. They are nice for high level assassination missions, esp in the ace ranks when the mark starts have an M2 with M6 escorts. Those can pay 4 million credits a pop and then some. Though you don't have to use an M2 for those. I think most people use them to increase their c...

I've had this kind of thing going on in my universe as well. I took a few invasion missions up north, but then got a little happy and killed more cap ships each time I went in. Finally cleared all the cap ships. Now I have to be careful parking right by gates inbetween 472 and those northen sectors....

Yeah, that last screenshot is a mystery. Argon from the ID (ASDA-80) but that's too short for a station, isn't it? Also note it has no shields, only hull indicator is at full. Boy, how much will this be over-analyzed before Feb 2005? Oh, and what about that station interior preview? Looks like some ...

Normally if its just a few stray shots only the trading station goes red. If they are all red, you must have really done something. I myself learned long ago not to get into heavy fire fights near a gate, esp. on a ship with turrets.

Ah, this is what I'm talking about. Stuff for the community. Thanks guys, good stuff!

You just can't hit J until the energy cells are in your hold. You still have to manually move them from the TS to your TL's hold so you might as well freight beam them off the TS before it docks and then just send it out on another trade run. Not if you set the TL as the homebase and use the tradin...

Here it is, via Babel Fish German -> English X2: The return 19.08.2004, 10:00 Addon at the beginning of of 2005 comes X2: The threat fulfilled completely obviously the sales expectancies. As reward the developers may program a Addon with the name the return now. Up to the first quarter 2005 a comple...

First, check out this thread for some good general capitol ship tactics http://www.egosoft.com/x2/forum/viewtopic.php?t=57395&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 Here's my method of getting Khaak M2 and M1s (and Xenon J and K for that matter) I use an Oddy. Only M2 I have right now. Load up each turret...

Egosoft may not even have known about the release of that information so don't get your knickers in a twist. Publishers tend to release information to magazines and websites to get the hype going. Somebody knew, and that someone was high enough up to release things that normally couldn't have gone ...

That image is labeled as artwork on the originating page, so it might just be something to get non-X people excited. Or maybe a proposed cut scene? Otherwise it hints at being able to attack planets with beam weapons on standard race ships. Pretty far departure from what we can currently do. The pag...

I've heard of others on the board having similar mysterious problems with sector patrols going nuts and killing everything you own in a sector. Fortuantly I've not had this problem, but it does seem to happen. I wonder if its something to do with the foe settings on the captured ship. What about the...

"Something" is also called jump drives, and they already exist in the game. Let the captured ship borrow your jumpdrive for at few seconds so it can jump to a sector with a shipyard. ... and then spend the next hour flying through the sector painfully slowly trying to reach it. no no no no no. For ...

Anyone got the credits to host a celebrity deathmatch between these two, AI vs AI, in sector? PSG vs HEPT and then HEPT vs HEPT? I'm with everyone else on how this would come out, but still could make a great movie for this evenings enjoyment. Come on, I'll even bring the popcorn

Mamba: underpowered paper plane. The only way of saving this ship is editing TShips to give it GHEPTs. Otherwise it is a piece of trash. Even with mass drivers. A spacefly with an IRE can toast you. I'm afraid I must respectfully disagree with you sir. In the player's hands, a Mamba can take any ot...
