Modding community
Has any of the community mods from X3 / X-Rebirth inspired or made it into X4?
With a long serving community regularly pumping out material it would be interesting to understand if the Dev's have adopted any of this into the final game.

The games not out for another month and a half! I think it's a little too early to ask that question!
Re: Modding community
Really? I just wanted to understand if the Dev's have been inspired by past mods.scripts created from different X games and implemented these...wasn't really a leading question suggesting what mods could be made for X4 prior to launch without playing the game

Re: Modding community
Yeah that is a bit odd on your statement.
Re: Modding community
The way I read the question, it sounded to me as if the Op was asking if any of the community had started modding for X4 yet!

Re: Modding community
These bits of the OP are quite clear to me: "Has any of the community mods from X3 / X-Rebirth inspired or made it into X4? .. if the Dev's have adopted any of this into the final game."
The OP is asking if X3/XR mods have inspired Egosoft to incorporate any previously mod-inspired gameplay into vanilla X4. I suspect that the OP has some favourite mods of theirs in mind. Whilst it may be quite early and possibly unlikely to get a dev response here just now, it is not at all an inappropriate question to ask and discuss.

Re: Modding community
I think the "Capital Ship Bridge" mod made it in
Re: Modding community
In the past, sector control has been mentioned and I feel like this might be inspired by mods that do the same thing in both X3AP and XR. It seems to be a big thing that modders like to do, so perhaps the inspiration came from there.
I know it's not out of the question for them to add in systems officially. I believe Trade Command Software Mk3, which has become an important part of X3 I feel, started out as a mod in X2 as well as the ability to exchange freight between your own ships. I'm sure there's a few more examples that I can't remember off the top of my head.
I wouldn't be surprised if they keep quiet on this aspect for now, though, and watch is speculate instead .

Re: Modding community
I am pretty positive there are ideas that devs have had as well, but modderss have done, that inspired them to put the work in to do it as well in this new version.
I do recall one interview where CBJ discussed this a little on a question to them, the response was more on the lines, yes we have had the same ideas like cockpits, but we wanted it to be more when implemented by them, versus what the modders implemented.. hence walking around the cockpit..
But that is a example of your question and response from dev on it. Hope it helps.
