X3:TC General Questions

Post by betc » Mon, 5. Jan 09, 01:54

Hey Guys, a few housekeeping questions..

1. Where can repair lasers be purchased? I swear i saw them somewhere...

2. I am doing the terran plot and am up to mission 5, they have given me a few M5’s as support but these get minced if i go anywhere near the enemy, in fact my squadron of 4 M3’s get minced as well. Skate, eclipse, barracuda and 1 more. what M3’s do you guys have as your wingmen? And what lasers do you use?

3. I have a level 25 UT and it seems to muck about doing bugger all. 300 en cells here, 500 wheat there. Does this sound normal? It’s a mistral SF, fully loaded out.

4. I have just put up a 3 x space weed factory in PTNI, i have setup the en cells buy at 18 however i cant seem to attract NPC transports. It seems to take ages before people will start bringing them in. Does this sound right? The station holds 600k at all times. And if i drop a load of en cells off the space weed gets bought almost straight away...

5. do you guys visit terran space much? My dealings in there have been quite crap so far... massive distances to travel from gates, no jumpdrive, stations that seem to specialise in dropping my FPS and taking up half the map for no reason

6. I have an elephant large freighter and sometimes when i come out of jump gates i cant avoid traffic! I lose rep as well... i gather there is no way to avoid this?

7. are station build missions based on your universal trade ranking and not your various race ranks?

Thanks for any help

1: Nowhere. You've only got the one stuck on your spacesuit.

2: No wingmen will last. The combat AI is rubbish. I did that in a Mamba.

3: The UT script is not functioning well. Hopefully this will be corrected in an upcoming update.

Maverick: Requesting permission for flyby.
Air Boss Johnson: That's a negative ghostrider, the pattern is full.
Goose: No. No, Mav, this is not a good idea.
Maverick: Sorry Goose, but it's time to buzz a Split.
Split: Split now give you .... Aaaarrriiiigh.

1. They can't be bought, only used by space suit.
2. Go it alone, wings are a waste.
3. UT's are bugged at the moment.
4. Not a lot of ecell factories near ptni, why not buy a ship to auto trade for the station.
5. Terran space looks pretty but is boring. If you want a Terran ship, your forced to poke around Terran space for weapons etc.
6. Not really... Unless you don't mind flying another ship, OOS-jump the ele where you want it to go, then follow it in a smaller ship.
7.yes
