Guten tag meine Damen und Herren
Yesterday and Today there seems to be an issue with the IFF system as I have within a short space of time come across two separate incidents.
The first was a Gallic Royal Police AI named ‘Zeferon’ immediately I tried to contact it however it's only response was “I russan” now I am not sure what “I russan” means. The only connection I could find by searching the New Ludwig-Maximilians-University Planet Nuremberg Munich was a reference to the Russian nationality of old Earth.
However I contacted Polizeidirektorin Laura Carsten who was in the New Berlin System at the time for guidance as I unsure of what to do with it, now seeing as it posed little threat bar what seems to be a faulty fire control mechanism. I was ordered to leave it be and it swiftly left Rheinland after I advised it to head back to Gallia where it was better suited.
Afterwards as I was in orbit of Planet Stuttgart a ship by the name of Bob_Reb as I commenced a standard customs check, I found that he was broadcasting a Bretonian Armed Forces IFF, after I engaged in lengthy discussion with him I offered three options to him as he had at that time. The first was to land on Stuttgart and fix it to something more appropriate with adequate security waiting on Planet Stuttgart to ensure Planetary safety, the second option was to leave Rheinland and not enter unless he has permission from the Government or to fix it in Bretonia and I ensure that he left as swiftly as possible. Unsurprisingly he opted for the third option but he seemed stubborn and set in his ways. So I wouldn't be surprised if Mr Reb returned with the same IFF.
