Official Discovery Server
Server name is "Discovery Freelancer 24/7"
Quick Connect Shortcut properties:

Install Notes
To install Discovery mod, use Freelancer Mod Manager v1.31. Since version 4.78 using FLMM to update Discovery is essential because XML scripts were added.
While activating Discovery in Freelancer Mod Manager, you'll see a setup screen where you can choose mod options. Options to enable or disable intro movies and to choose player uniform are clientside; option to enable player looting is serverside. If you are going to play on a Discovery server where player looting is enabled, you should enable it. Otherwise, leave it default (disabled).
Freelancer SDK installation is not necessary for Discovery 4.78.
Transition to 4.78 from previous versions
Don't forget to transfer and mount your scanner and tractor each time you buy a new ship. Scanners and tractors (as well as armor) are equipped in Internal Equipment section of ship inventory, like nanobots and shield batteries.
In 4.78, all original Freelancer ships got new versions with the same stats, to make player looting option possible to implement. Therefore, original game ship hulls cost nothing now, and when you'll try to sell your old ship for a new one, you won't get part of the price of your ship back, like before. This issue only concerns original ships (from Starflier to Titan).
Players who bought capital ships before 4.78 will not notice much difference in their hull integrity after equipping a new armor upgrade, because in 4.77 and before all capital ships came with hidden armor preinstalled. However, now there's no preinstalled armor for new ships you buy, and using upgrades will help a lot.
Virus.... you like new versions to play them or to go find bugs? :crazy:

Whoa? What PC gaming is all about then, if there are no bugs to look for?
Well, seriously, bugs in 4.78 final were already found, and I'll have to release a patch anyway, so please play, and test, and report everything that seems wrong to you, even including mistakes in infocards. Be attentive. I don't want to send a corrupt file to TLR.
That's exactly what I want to do. :D No bugs, no fun! Well.... Not as much anyway.... Unless you ship has no engine... Then its not fun...... But others... :D I want to get into the readme, so I must find the bug.
(Am I mentioned in the readme? I did mention the no engine bug on the Rheinland bomber first.)
(If you find any mistake in my English, please let me know via a PM)
(Really, I speak terrible English, so please, tell me if I make mistakes. I'd like to improve it a bit )
Lol. Just put "I think the Discovery Gaming Community for finding the bugs" or like that. Then have the update and modding team which has Angel, Igiss, me and I think thats it.
