When considering just how long FLHook has been going and the amazing things that have been achieved, why do we not have a novel system for wrecks being re-spawned upon a server restart?
The way in which wreck-campers operate is disgraceful. The best wrecks are looted within minutes of a server restart, even when unscheduled. This is incredibly unfair on those who cannot be active at dawn. This needs to change, I for one am very tired this situation.
What I suggest is to randomly place wrecks beholding a codename weapon (those without aren't really a problem) across specific zones in select systems. This will enhance the "discovery" aspect, forcing players to actually hunt for them instead of knowing in advance precisely where they are when this should not have been possible in-RP. I wonder if the existing mining mod could provide for a basis on how to put this into effect.
I think this is a fantastic idea I only worry that it might not be possible at all, or if so then with very great difficulties that might be too time consuming.
Hmm.. That is not a bad idea really.. Yet FLhook does have its limits, if you continue to add more things in that currently is not, it really starts to lag and take much more power to run. Something like that would slow down the game a lot I believe..
The idea in general though is a good idea, instead of people just wreck camping, the random spawning isn't a bad idea.. makes the game a bit more interesting in getting codenames.
I doubt that it would cause any problems because it wouldn't be an active modification, rather it need only take effect when the server is rebooted. Granted, it could increase the downtime, but I'd hope that it wouldn't be too bad.
Yes, this idea is actually k.
Stationary wrecks must be gone and be replaced with random generated once with random names that spawns somewhere in the system (at least 20k from any base\planet) and in +\- 10k from the plane. That will be fuan.
No matter I'm care not for code hunting, this will be interesting me thinks.
This has been discussed over many years now. As far as I recollect, such additions and modifications were never viewed as a top priority when we have plenty other things to tweak and balance.

I think it would be a very good idea, it would add a real roleplay element to code hunting. Imagine having multiple code hunters looking for a single weapon
