Just so everyone knows, we did in fact revert the YZ base gear manhours change. I just confirmed with Jey.

Alright so for those who have been experiencing issues with wine and this new client. Make sure you have wine version 1.8 or higher , 1.7 may work but is untested. 1.6 and 1.4 are confirmed to crash on start.

I wonder if this means you can no longer use bot transfer to view stealthy enemies in galaxy.


That is the best functionality ever, I think we should still be able to use it, maybe a tracer bot or something?

Come up with a concept and we can think about it. Right now the system was never meant to work that way so I hope it has been removed by this change.

I honestly don't think it should come back stealth exists for a reason. Giving players a way to identify and track stealth 1) defeats the purpose of stealth, and 2) let's people ignore the utility of having a seer around.

I'm not saying it has to be a carbon copy. It could be based off of the combat bot's radar instead of your own, for example.

Those are level 40+ mobs in there...that could be a little lethal for players with tech 3 weapons and ships.

They'll be fine, the mission tells players to bring other people with them.

Its good for new players to learn that they shouldnt randomly fight everything they see. Its an experience that will serve them well for a good part of the game :P.

Also I believe it's fine to have a higher-difficulty zone available since they at least know it's there for when they are a bit stronger. Better than having no breadcrumbs to it at all.

I feel like wiki items that we already have the stats for that get changed should be updated by the devs on the wiki prior to the change. After all isn't that why we killed TLA to begin with, so that the devs would have official control over the wiki?

no, we offered an officially hosted wiki so that it would not depend on anyone paying for the host. There was no guarantee that TLA would stay alive forever, but we can guarantee that wiki.starsonata.com will be up for as long as the game exist. This is why Simon had just about absolute power over the wiki as well.

Simon didn't create the wiki though. Arrowhate did. But still, what is the point in an official wiki if the devs don't even upload the changes they make? Because honestly, you think swabbies gear is going to get updated any time soon? So to that end the wiki exists to mislead new players and look unprofessional.
