If the OSC Liner would be added, a System like Alberta and similar Systems would be good. If undockable even better, make it a Thing for Sight Seeing.

I'm also trying to figure out the actual status of Shetland right now, as I'm getting conflicting reports from people.

Please let me be the one to enlighten you this time, and tell me what do you need to know.

He means, he's getting conflicting reports about what's happening to it in .86

Oh right, sorry. I got confused with him speaking in present. 4.86 is future tense for most of us yet. Sorry!

Dab and I were just talking about this a few minutes ago.
What will actually happen to Shetland has been decided by default at this point, which leaves it stuck behind a locked system where it was moved to before reaching the conclusion that the system could not be finished before 4.86 arrives.

Moving it out into lower Bretonia is a possibility - most likely Cambridge. If the Shetland is not moved out into Bretonia, then the routes assigned to it will be reassigned to some other location in Bretonia, like perhaps Waterloo.

Regardless of what happens to Shetland, all of the OSC routes have been reworked and made more profitable, several new luxury commodities will be sold at OSC bases (Tea, Elixirs, Holosculptures), and OSC may also benefit from the general passenger traffic that will be occurring between House capitols (new Passenger commodities, although they are all called Passengers).

So, OSC will have more relevant commodities to transport, a larger number of travel options, and higher profits.

Definitively, there is no dockable HQ liner.

Well at least tell me if you are going to take into consideration our opinion on this matter. Because there is a number of players investing time and effort in Shetland and to think that it will just be locked in a closed system is terrible.

I am glad that all those things you point Xoria are added to the OS&C RP possibilities, but accepting that our recently aquired base of operations will vanish into the void of non-exisitance is not an option for us.

Perhaps I should have been more clear earlier. I do not like the idea of Shetland being stuck behind a locked system, but the only issue I have direct control over is its trade routes. I will make sure those are useful whether I have Shetland available for them or not.

We need to get this straight. Will the Shetland be in a closed system or not.
And it better NOT be in a closed system.

If we're gonna just dump the Shetland somewhere, at least make it a bloody accessible place. I don't mind it if you dump it anywhere, as long as it is accessible. Heck, just place it in Cambridge, at least the Ross Planetoid looks pleasing enough for tourists (somewhat). I don't care if New Anglia isn't completed, the Shetland must exist and that's final for me.

Don't get me wrong. I am grateful for the added commodities and extended RP opportunities given to OS&C. I just don't like the idea of the Shetland being housed in a dead system with no in or out. I have already put some degree of effort into the Shetland and I plan to put more. I don't want all of it to go down the drain just because the Devs can't complete the new system that it will be housed in.

No, I dont think we should hold up 4.86 any further for the consideration of one base. We have an entire community and an entire mod to think about. Delaying release for one base seems silly.









Not that I have any say over it.

I am trying to guess if you are saying that to provoke reactions on the ones who do have any say on it, or if you are saying it just to express your opinion.

For everybody to know: moving shetland to Cambridge would not delay the release. Completing New Anglia would, but moving the base wouldnt.
