Shockwave Torpedo Launcher (bc_missile_launcher02) - not a codename
Stonebreaker Rocket Launcher (bc_heavy_driller_missile) - not a codename

All of the above are missing from the BC arsenal. In fact, the only BC codenames that exist are the PPAC and the Breaker. Quite far from "all".

On a sidenote, the inconsistency in internal nickname of these codenames is peak comedy.

We have main batteries being referred to as heavies and we have heavies being referred to as primaries.
We have weapons that are named in their nickname and we have weapons that are given random numbers instead.

Truly makes the job of actually finding those nicknames just as unintuitive as it gets. It must really be difficult to name a gun following the concept of "SHIPCLASS_SLOT_GUNNAME", and while I understand the excuse of "having to change every gun" being a valid thing to say when it comes to fixing already existing guns, but literally all BC weaponry are recent additions to the game.

I fail to see why the Hailfire (example) is called "bc_heavy_w03" instead of "bc_main_hailfire".

Realistically, you'd want short, descriptive, and accurate nicknames. So "bc_main_dual_laser" and such.

But yeah it's scuffed. Unfortunately renaming things is very annoying due to player files existing.

I updated the codes with a more extensive list. I know some ammo is likely missing, will be looking through that now. Otherwise let me know if something is missing.

regarding the omega escape, my cargo decayed when I relogged in Krimwell.Stoneman and undocked -- It was definitely at least 50 HP when I arrived at Gran Canaria

I did another run on Skyla.Hart incase you didn't want to count the bugged one

Can't believe I have to say this, but I'll repeat this here: you will not receive any event rewards for the Omega escape if you chose to fly under a clearly OORP name. Please do better folks, you know who you are.

Not gonna lie; I got up to Planet Timbuktu & Atmosphere, then gave up. It's too much.
Fischer is neat though.

We are also aware of the cargo expiring when undocking from GC again.

This will not be an issue as we are still able to track those that have completed the event. Just please ensure that you are docked on GC and do not delete the ship.

Just a reminder there is nothing anymore in the reformatted rules regarding OORP names explicitly referencing "player characters".

There is only the vague:

Quote:Communication in-game and in the roleplaying areas of the forums must be in-character and appropriate for Discovery Freelancer's setting.

Which might or might not cover this. I'd prefer this be stated in the rules, as I don't see how someone naming a ship player123 would fall under "Don't be a dick".

Yup, same here.
There is also that liner you can dock.

The first couple of runs were interesting, then it just became frustrating.

Kudos to everyone who made it to Canaria.

Fisher is really nice!

I think it had something to do with the perma death...
The first few runs i saw people having normal names ( Me aswell )

But if you keep making new chars after the X-th time you just dont care and want a new char to try again.

May also be the frustration since sometimes you die for no reason when after a jump there are NPCs waiting for you and you get killed in 5 seconds without being able to do anything.
