1.0.10
hmm got killed coz the bots have grown fangs, and seem to have a mouse bug, the tracking is all over the place.
when asked by computer if one wishes same ship and weapons, and replies yes, weapons are no longer available that one had previously been using!! due to re-scaling of licences and weapons.
the weapons speaking of are the tachs giving 600 damage
peeved off, yes thoroughly, from what was written on the forums, it was implicated the higher lvls were going to be affected. appreciate the need to balance out game, but taking away what was already there/fought for is somewhat harsh.

I'm sorry you were negatively impacted by the update. Unfortunately, that is the lot and the role of a beta-tester. On the plus-side, you get to play for free and help shape a pretty damn cool game. One the downside, sometimes things don't work well or are changed suddenly. The devs do try to be considerate, but time is short and the updates need to get out of the chute quickly. All I can say is "sorry", thank you for your patience (and for reporting the mouse bug), and remind you that you will have bragging rights when Vendetta hits the big time.

mortei: Having a weapon get raised a level or two is not nearly as harsh as having all the bots changed (names, types and locations) AFTER you had finished mapping their locations in the entire gray section of space.

Things will settle down...no worries.

We haven't changed the license requirements for anything in about a month, and that was to LOWER requirements.

Not all items are available at all stations, maybe you outfitted your ship at a station other than your home?

I'd like to figure out what happened, if it's unclear why something is happening, then that's something we need to work on.

When you try to buy back a ship with items not available at that station you get "unknown item" error, it should probably sale "Sorry, we don't carry those here." or something to that extent.

me wonders if the guy bought his ship + weapons in odia ...

But RelayeR that is a special mission just for you! The bots will keep changing so you'll always be able to explore gray space as if it was the 1st time :)

replying to Vlad:
ty ..i played intermittently that day looking in various stations, to no avail. logged on the next day, and it was clear!
Vlad it was immediately after the patch, that they seemed to disappear, even tho it was temporarily.
thanx guys
