Re: Help me spend my cash

How exactly does fuel consumption work? The higher the power usage of my equipment, the more fuel is consumed? So keeping the same equipment while upgrading the reactor lowers fuel consumption? Do weapons etc. consume power only when they're being fired, or all the time? Same for other equipment, d...

Re: Nuclear weapons

All of the weapons that use the "thermo" damage type are nuclear weapons. It's short for thermonuclear.

Re: Antivirus + low armour and shields + sung and a ranx dre

34 views and not 1 reply from any one else, harsh. :( I doubt there's anyone else here who physically damaged their computer because of a death, but I, at least, have died because I didn't know at the time that docking didn't pause or even make my ship invincible. Your story has me a little bit con...

Re: Antartica

Yes that is true but then there is no challenge to it. I mean if you have made it to the heretic system and got a fracture cannon all you have to do is get a luminous particle shield and hang back behind the CSC untill it is destroyed. All you really get out of it (powerful yes) 1 weapon from the t...

Re: Help me spend my cash

I agree with Digdug, your equipment is actually a very nice set, way better than what I usually try to slide through with at three systems past st K's. If you can, try to get your hands on a fusionfire howitzer to replace your class III, and an Ares launcher easily beats the NAMI heavy, in my opinio...

Re: T-31 transports

I thought it just meant that they where owned by different factions. I think the green T-31 transports are spawned docked to BM station, shipyards, and tempus labs, and also by an encounter that spawns them with Zulu escorts and has them cycle between friendly stations for a while before exiting a ...

Re: Newbie with one question

Which mod have you downloaded, and have you actually installed it? There are two version of the upgradable wingmen mod on Xelerus. 2.4.b 3 RC3 For each one of these the instructions are very different. If you are using 2.4.b, make sure you are docking on the wingmen to install the equipment. If you ...

Re: Enemies you love to hate.

I remember the first time I ever encountered them - I think I died just about instantly. Nasty little guys - it helps if you can use Domina to fight them though - even the stock-standard Protect power can help you get out of their range until the Shield-drop wears off. Well, with the armor buffs si...

Re: Newbie with one question

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for mod related questions, but if you're using the Upgradable Wingmen mod, you need to order your wingmen to dock at a station, then dock with them to transfer and install items.

Re: Enemies you love to hate.

1. Ventari. The reasons for this choice barely need explaining. Not only did their weapons strip enhancements and permanently damage weapons and devices- which is in and of itself, completely unforgivable-, but they do a tremendous amount of damage to me. Perhaps the greatest testament to my aversio...

Re: Wild Mass Guessing

I think I should add one more point: the syrtians were led by an entity (probably entity D3) to declare war on Earth. If this is indeed D3, then it would be safe to say D3 wanted to destroy Earth and many pilgrims, so they don't like people from Earth and don't want people to break the quarantine. ...

Re: Making cash post St. Kats?

Offering items to Domina affects two different variables, your Domina relation, and your Sisters of Domina relation. Luxury goods, medical goods, food, and fuel will make the sisters like you more, but Domina could care less. There are only a few specific items that will raise your Domina relations...
