Freelancer alpha 1/1 ?

Freelancer beta 3/8 ?

Not quite. In fact, very few of us are freelancers;)

So is there ANY way for the NPCs to check your ID mount and hail you with the respective faction name? :unsure:




pweeease? D:

/signed

I want to be called what I am!

Isn't it always "Freelancer Alpha 1/x" with x being your current ID?


NPC Callsigns depending on ID? - Cyro - 08-29-2008

We want it THAT way:

Like: Hessian, alpha 2/2 you're clear to dock.

Or: Navy, delta 4/6 I'm scanning your cargo...

From what I know, this is impossible.

Or, to speak more clearly: This probably requires enormous amounts of work and time, and even though it is unclear, if it can be done.

Yes I know what you meant. But I think reading ID's would be problematic since there are few new ID's like Mercenaries, Asgard Warriors or Coalition - and so on. I don't think those have sound files.

Wouldn't it be better then - if even possible - to read out the tag/reputation?

AKA: We needz teh source code?

I'd be more than pleased just if Navy NPC's won't ask navy ID'd cruisers to drop the cruiser commanders -.-

Huh? All i see is BH NPC's asking for Cruiser Commanders etc.

But, would be great if you'd be called GC blablaetcetcpp. But i guess it won't happen without this ominous source code.
