What's with these wrecks?

Post by pjknibbs » Sat, 1. Feb 20, 20:48

I was in Silent Witness XII and I noticed that some of the wrecks in there returned a blue ping in response to a long range scan, rather than the regular grey one. However, I can't see anything different about those wrecks--they're just spinning hunks of garbage just like all the others, with no obvious reason why they should ping differently. Anyone know what's going on there?

Some wrecks can be entered and provide mini-puzzles for some loot.

Yeah, I saw that online, but those wrecks seem to be mostly intact. These, like I say, were identical to all the other wrecks in the system--just spinning hunks of nothing. Also, wouldn't a "Loot here!" wreck ping as purple, not blue?

Give those wrecks a closer look depending on what it is they range from a lockbox just stuck in the geometry up to a maze and/or puzzle to solve to get to the loot.
And of course they come in different shape and form some are ship wrecks others are derelict Station modules and are hidden to a good chunk of sector.

fly near the wrecks and look for the blue light. Usually in the middle of the light you have an entrane.
Its some sort of red panel.
Fly to it and use your repair laser on it and a door will open to go inside.
