I'd have to agree, it was beautiful in it's own way. Works perfectly for sinking the mining events into the atmosphere

^ Big Transports like Super Train have no problems passing there , while enormous ones , like Legate and Valor are only ones that will have mayor problems there .

Awwww! I missed the start of the project!
I hope it can be re-enabled soon!
Great concept!

I have reviewed the chatlogs from the system during its activity and I think that the overall result has been good enough. Apart from minor confusion regarding usage of ships, the RP I see resulting from these lines is reasonable enough to allow for a bit more freedom, especially in terms of IDs.
As a small reminder and clarification, the are two major reasons why this sector is currently self-contained in terms of roleplay consequences.
One is that I have a personal set of promises to the Story Devs in regards to event content messing with the established/planned storyline as little as possible, but also because we have a certain amount of people who are itching to find excuses to screw over other factions. Making sure that allowing IDs to show hostilities between factions that do not usually have this ability is, at least during the test, contained instead of simply retconning something, was a good alternative and solution.
This does not make the Uncharted sector a ''roleplay connecticut'' and neither does it mean that roleplay has smaller influence there. Any sort of out of roleplay actions are covered by the same set of server rules as anywhere else.
It simply has to be made it so that during the testing phase, people do not get too carried away and do something silly.

Nota bene: This does not mean the established storyline cannot be messed with and a fair number of us story devs are actually very open to the inclusion of dynamic, spontaneous, player driven roleplay. This doesn't mean that you can't make an impact on the mod, just that we have to make sure it can be made to work with the existing content first.

Most of my event stuff is spontaneous, which is the exact opposite of allowing me to fill you in first
But yeah, I do have @Teerin on the line if I am planning something big.

I think this is a really good idea, and will hopefully lead to interesting rp, and not trolling and hate. Good move guys. I hope it works out.

Altough it is an awsome addon I got 1 major backdraw... Even since these uncharted where added I have lag. Even now where they have been deactived agian i still got lag where I before had none...
Is there any way that lag can be removed?
RE: Event Update: Contested Systems 1.0 (Uncharted System) [PAUSED] - sindroms - 01-26-2017
The lag has nothing to do with this addition. The lag issues are due to something happening with the hosting service we use. We are already looking into it.
