New or old glitch? - OsoRojo - 01-05-2007

Howdy everyone,

Noticed that threat indicators pop-up (half dozen or so) when within 1900 meters of Scarbourgh Station, Newcastle. 1st notice while escorting Bullet w/help of (AW) Jbags-War. Is this new or old glitch?

Sincerely,
OsoRojo

Threat indicators?

Do you mean red things in your HUD?

Or the nice lady voice that goes: Warning....

My mistake, on the HUD and included nice screenie in original post:)

Yeah, normal thing, probably the lot of Mollys just not yet in range to appear on the list... at least I think so because usually a threat indicator appears before the red contact on the list.

Thought that as well, however, this happens from different approach vectors to Scarborough and everytime I approach at different times.


New or old glitch? - Nightfall - 01-05-2007

well, since there's no obvious pattern... as I said, probably hostile contacts just outside of the 'show up on list' range

Possible, however, gone to extreme range of HUD threat indicator, about 1900 meters looked in every direction and nada. From such a distance from Scarborough should see something. By doing so extended total of 4k from Scarborough. I should see something. Must be glitch and not only one to have seen it. [AW]Jbags-War saw it too. An intersting sidebar- My charge- "Bullet" (escorting) was with me and he did not see the indicators, however, he is Newbie, but an interesting datam none the less. Overall, just corious if anyone besides me and Jbags have seen this at Scarborough.

Howdy everyone,

Just a notice that I have included additional screenies of different vectors of approach to Scarborough Station, Newcastle

Its actually that you are picking up Scarborough Station.. AND the industrial tubes, shipyards, and other components. When you construct a base in FLE (Which is how Angel made Scarborough) you don't just select a base and plant it.

Scarborough didn't come the way you see it. Its composed of multiple 'pieces,' like a puzzle. There is the base (the docking part, along with the bar connecting it to the line of big circular things behind it. Then separate pieces are the multiple shipyards. They were put into the system, then moved to fit with Scarborough. They aren't actually part of scarborough. If things could be moved, the shipyards would be moved separately from the base. But these pieces can be aligned with the base. Giving it the same reputation. So if Scarborough is hostile, you will pick up multiple red threat indicators. If its neutral and you get the same thing, its likely a glitch made by the shipyards having the wrong rep, one you are hostile to. You'll find if you click on them, they will select Scarborough, or nothing. This happens with bases made in FLE only. Original Vanilla bases were made by more advanced programs, and by the developer of the game, so they act as one 'piece.' But Scarborough, and other bases that have added parts will have the same symptoms.
