Barge owners were notable for removing its hitbox to not be interrupted by asteroid or NPCs to maximise the profit/ease over actually being part of roleplay environment. So congratulate those players who used this ship for not-intended purpose that led to complete removal of Barge in the first place.


RE: The Barge !!! - Zoners of Galileo - 02-16-2020

So that's why it was removed in first place

So as I already said put restrictions on them and give them to people who want to use them for a purpose

So that gives me more ammunition to get one

PLEASE


(To be continued lol)

I tried it; the Admins stopped it.

"It was removed previously due to jump trading causing massive economy issues. It was not reintroduced yet."


RE: The Barge !!! - Goliath - 02-17-2020

Suggestion to introduce the Barge:

-Cut the Cargo Size to 35,000
-Reduce thesize accoringly, perhaps by 35%-25%
-Remove Equipment Mounts responsible for jump-trading
-Boost its speed to 200 (in cruise speed mode) and 60 (normal flight)
-in return, give it a few more turrets. Afterall, the ship is huge, so not all turrets will get to hit the target whatsoever.
-Let the Barge be owned by Corporate Factions and OFs that made relevant RP towards manufacturing Barges.


RE: The Barge !!! - Nightowl - 02-17-2020

Actual, the Barge has only 25.001 Cargo and has 7 turrets (up to Cruiser-Class!!!).
And even when I offered not to jump with the barge, the admin response was still "no".

Yes, i still would like to get a Barge. And i had one in the past, so i konw how ugly this beast flies.
The Barge is only usefull for RP, because you won't have the chance to enter the most Jump-Holes becouse of the asteroid arround them. (Ok, you can go there, but only in /stuck-Speed.)
And no one should try to land on a planet or dock at a Jumpgate. The chance, thay you die while undocking the planet is about 95% and the chance to enter a Jumpgate is extrem low...


RE: The Barge !!! - .:SCI:.Admin - 02-17-2020

So maybe change a 5k to a 10k, charge a fee, and allow those without a faction to buy said ship? Asking for a friend... <_< >_> <_<


RE: The Barge !!! - Zoners of Galileo - 02-17-2020

So now I have a new idea

Will post it here soon

Ha ha


RE: The Barge !!! - Zoners of Galileo - 02-17-2020

So ..... If I cannot have a Barge

Here be another suggestion ..

Obviously we are a Zoner group and our ships are whales so the idea is that increase the capacity of the whale to say ...... 15000

We use our whales mostly for base supplies and it means we get more done quicker

If there is a restriction put on it aswell so be it

But seeing as it can’t dock mostly in house space other than Freeport’s and certain other bases it would be ideal for our operation.

Or simply lift the restriction on the whale being able to dock and make it anywhere

Which would be even better and means I don’t have to get contract ships hauling most of my commodities needed for FP12


RE: The Barge !!! - Skorak - 02-17-2020

Isn't FP12 Universal ID?
