Everyone knows it's Devlopia, not Devtopia :P

I've seen people warp TO Devlopia A-1, but I see nothing about Sol.

When you plot a navroute to Devlopia A-1, it actually goes to Sol A-1 IIRC.

It does, but only because the navroute editor doesn't really know how to deal with it.

Sol A-1 is sector number 0001, Devlopia A-1 is sector number 7681 though. They aren't the same sector. >_>

Well, I know you don't have the latest info, but all the cool stuff is in Devlopia D-11*. We do still use A-1 as a quick stopping-off point or a respawn though, as D-11's harder to navigate due to all the purple iceyos "someone" left in the sector almost six weeks ago *nudge nudge*.

*dirty lies

what if they did /navroute add 7681

does that work?
Jan 29, 2007 LeberMac link
It might, if you were in the same system...

Dantia ends with 7680.

So, 7681 would (logically) be the A-1 of whatever system came after Dantia, So, Devlopia is the "31st" system, only attainable by devwarping, though, I'm afraid.

A bit taken out of context, but this seems to be the thread for it:

Now that we're sectorbuilding, I'd greatly and muchly like to see the return of the floating billboards that appeared in one of the old screenshots. Not that it stands to reason why they would broadcast commercials and news in on a glorified monitor in space, instead of streaming it directly to the ships, and it intrigues me how two floating, highly automatonic, non-interactive objects can make space feel more alive and populated, but they do...

There's a station at one of the race tracks in sedina (but you can't dock in it), I always though it would be neat if there were floating monitors there showing what is going on at the other race tracks.
