Thanks buddy,
DUDE

PS. By the way, this new version is way cool, and I love my star which is location in the very very upper left corner of the large F4 map. (Well done to all the developers !!!)

ok, thank you for the information, this information sounds like it will work. and what are the things i have to do on an island to get credits for kewl things on the galaxy? cz i believe i want a point drive or whatever it is so i never have to fly around in that retched spaceship to get to zoric again (just cz thats the only isle i play). im not saying the hole galaxy thing is bad or isnt kewl, just that i have nothing to do wioth ne thing else but zoric

Thank yous
Rueges

I appreciate there'll be people like yourself who won't be interested in flying about in space, reuges.. If zoric is the only place you ever wanna go then you'll not need any drives or anything (as you restart in orbit of the world you last played on).

(Actually, this kinda stuff is a big part of how i hope the design will progress.. There'll be some people with stardrives and infimps and all the other whizzbang space goodies, travelling about, exploring new worlds, meeting new lifeforms etc etc - and there'd be others who prefer to 'live' on single worlds... One long-term economy game is enough for most people... )

Should you ever get the urge to explore tho - you get galactic credits by converting the money you earn on the worlds at the local starport.

If you're really a hardcore tractor player who cant abide all that silly flying about in space, then an infinite improbability drive is the thing you're after in the end. It gives you the potential to visit any world easily, without any poncing about in spaceships

on the surface of zoric(675) in system 225 is what comes up when i type !find junk

[Mit]

looks like he made it then

[Rueges]

thanks mit, the !resetme command worked right away. its not that i nessuisaril;y dont want to exlore, but out of the Long long time ive been playing tractor there had never been a island thats better than zoric or is good as zoric. (my own opinion of course) but of course im open to new things, and once i ever find ne thing that i consider near as good as zoric i will fly!

a lot of folks are showin up in.. yeh the one with gyruss and the two offline mit worlds :]

i've sent two folks that had no credits or fuel over zoric-way, but i'd forgotten about good 'ol resetme. same difference i'd imagine

[zaroba]

heh, how about a galactic hitch ability so that the people with stardrives and infimps and all the other whizzbang space goodies can tow the other people around if they run out of fuel in some unknown star? might need the ability to see others in space though so you could see them and hitch onto them.

perhaps when useing space hitch, the tower's vehicle will go slower then normal and use more fuel then normal.
which brings up another thought, how about on islands if hitching slowed down the person being hitched?

[VDZ]

Is it possible to simply travel through Star Systems with infimp? (Not going to planets, but checking if there's any fun planets in star system X.)

[zaroba]

zoric gone until further notice.

[Guest]

OK I found Zoric, with no problem I used !resetme

However I still can't connect to zoric? I sit at the connection screen (the screen that says "Hit F12 to Abort") what seams like for hours.

Can you give me any further advice?

Thanks DUDE

[Nuge]

Didn't you read zaroba's post? Zoric is down for a while

[Guest]

hmm weird.
I was located in cyrus minor, joined yesterday the planet "gyruss". as Zoric wasn't in that system any longer (new client)
Well, now i tried that !resetme thing and what happenes.. I started now in Tau Ceti, the planet Zoric is there, but I cannot enter it. Also I cannot enter Gradpri. The third world is called ultracricket, but it's actually BiPlaneWorld (there seem to be some planet name databases messed up) - and there is no economy to play with

And there is no Gyruss in that system. And I cannot leave the system without any pointdrive, which cannot be bought anywhere (also I have 0.00 cr cash - so even IF I could buy it, I have money to do so)

Hmm and the quickplay shows 4 new planets - the first seems to be an air combat thing,
with 4 towns (alpha, beta....delta), seems to get reset every 60 minutes
the 2nd and 3rd are unavailable and the 4th is completely different - it seems to be teambased (star trek like team names..) and runs in space instead of planets. I have no idea how to trade, land, build,... there. Everything's different there.

However I would be happy if I could at least connect to zoric or gyruss, but I have absolutely no idea, how to.

[Mit]

Try joining the openbeta chat ( Type "?setchat openbeta" in game ) and see if theres any staff around who can send you to the correct star system. Ii'll try to get a fix for !resetme sending you to Tau Ceti sorted tonight or tomorrow.

[Guest]

Someone please reset me to the World that I can play, I am stuck in TUA SUE (Spelling?)

I am in the wrong solar system and I can't get into the one where everybody is playing....

PLEASE someoner transport me into the same solar system as all the others.

Thanks DUDE
