I was out to trade one night and met this Alien....

[shanejfilomena]

He/She had a Data Rom to sell which they claimed they could not Access because the Encryption was from the Fleet Central Command :
So, Naturally they wanted not just Rins, but Alot of Rins.....it cost me 56K Rins to get this away from the Alien and 30 more to hire bodyguard Droids( The pennae and a few bobby bots ) to get back to my ship : that convoy ship was dangerous.

Anyway: my ship is a Decom Corporate Transport that had wiring issues ( coffee pot only works third Tuesday of the month & Forget about the pillow Fluffing Droids : they don't work at ALL!!). I got my Boarding Droids fired up and they cracked the Encryption code faster then I thought they could : seems the code was actually based on a bobby bot logic algorithm, not a Fleet Code.

here is what I got out of it :

I think the rest of the CommonWealth needs to know of this........hold on, Driod is blinking ......
Got to go, My wingmen have discovered a nest of RedHive and they are coming at me.

I would actually generate it : right now it is a friendly as a test but the Hostile version is still waiting to fly : had to argue with the game to let it fly for the test : ( yes, to test my ideas I take the Unid of a mod that was not working for me and run it into the folder :
I would ask for my own Unid: but I only have ideas, and could not mod my way out a battle with a Dwarg Raider.

I am still trying to be helpful to DySy and get a escape ship = ;Deploy...... that drop and <invokeOnFire> a "itcsk" ( item Complete Station Kit )
to replace destroyed stations in DySy : I Already have deployable Merchant stations ( sv&Independent: sells just about everything on the syslevel ) Nothing free in those, and you often have to buy before you can sell : except at my deployable Frontier drydocks : they tend to let me sell and buy without issues ( it's the same silly code!!!!!! )

Now I just got to : i think: put together a weapon launcher : has failed for me so far using stock launchers : or maybe it's the type of ship? don't know but it keeps me busy at night trying and trying........
p.s.
The SelfDestruct code is Interesting: my first attempt: the ship deployed from the gate: blew itself up and took out my shields. ( without deploying the kit )

Ok ok : the hostile has yet to fly, it was an idea ( the friendly does fly ): let me beat my computer a few times and get it to fly : it should, I just have to trick it into thinking I know what I am doing : then Ill tell   you more

[shanejfilomena]

OK: here is the Scoop on the AntaresV :
Being as we now know the Ares have indeed captured a Proto-Type and turned it into a Hostile freighter ( the game will not let me give it escorts without extra code that I don't want to even think of being as I am still stuck on my self destructing ship that refuses to drop the package I give it........
ANYWAY : Our esteemed Brilliant Leaders in st.K figured that since the Ares have created a virtual Dred out of a freighter, they want the V upgraded .....Enter : number6.....I loaded the game and let the AI beat the ships up: it took a liking to beating on number6 with Nomads.....it can die, but it IS a V at heart so it will not die easy.
( yes, I had to steal the "nws" , it was resisting the "sc" terribly hard for some reason, CREDIT for the nws sneaky trick goes to : soggydoggy : and the game seems to like " History Maker" & "Sat7", those are the only two it ran in the battle window )
Ran this on 1.05...1.01..1.06D : its an IDEA : not a Mod.

Iam a dumb as a rock about this pastebin but i got it edited.

I was just watching the Battle window and DeadStop was put up against Astro : Amazingly : Astro has trash for Aim.
I was thinking it is possible I messed up and gave the CommonWealth version too much reach : whereas the Ares version has the lightning canon which is shorter range and makes for better aim.......YES, DeadStop won.....I was surprised at that, I thought that Astro would have him ( unless I am just rooting for the Home Team ).

I would talk to the Frontier Docks about it, but I don;t want to embarrass the company any further.
