Locklyn Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Pete, You spoke about System Beacons being available for research from this turn on our turns but I cannot find it. Have they been omitted for now or what? Cheers /Locklyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTGPete Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Not in yet. Lots of work for this - I posted notes about it here to get some feedback - more programming to do on System Beacons before they're ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locklyn Posted November 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Ah! Anything we can do except pester you about it? How about explosive system beacons /Locklyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locklyn Posted November 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Actually I like the whole system beacon concept. It means you can also let people know you've been in systems that you're not picketing even if with unarmed ships. Why exactly a 20 turn decay rate? Say 24 which would mean a beacon lasts a year real time? Will the beacon message be customisable? Cheers /Locklyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of work for this - I posted notes about it here to get some feedback - more programming to do on System Beacons before they're ready. I obtained a bunch of ZZZSystem Beacons with an EXPL result. Do I need to just hold onto them for now, or are they useable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTGPete Posted November 24, 2003 Report Share Posted November 24, 2003 Heh - nonusable right now. Let me know once System Beacons are in place and I can convert them. I'm using the ZZZ version for tests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
