Just went through HOL for the first time and...

Post by krowser07 » Thu, 11. May 17, 00:50

after seeing the intro im greeted with this https://ibb.co/kyR2Y5

Spending yet more money on X rebirth ? 10 dollars
Losing 30+ hours of gameplay stuck in the middle of space? Priceless.

No matter how hard I try to like this game it has a nasty habit of giving me the middle finger.

Guess I should have got that jumpdrive after all... ffs

Just came here to share my amazing experience before I uninstall.

I've once had a strange situation where I somehow was bumped out of a Superhighway 2/3 of the way through. At the time I had a cap ship so I just had them boost to me and pick me up then jump out.

It only happened the one time, though.

Annoying bug aside, you are not losing 30h of gameplay. Just quickload the last savegame which will not be 30h in the past.

Is your game up to date? And do you still have mods installed? This was a fairly common issue a few versions ago, but I've not seen recent reports of it happening in unmodified games.

It happened to me a few time on previous versions (actually, I got kicked out of a superhighway halfway through). If you own a capship, have him pick you up. If they're in the same system, they'll come to you fairly quickly (say a few minutes, given the distances involved). Then you can just have him jump somewhere else.
Humans are deuterostomes, which means that when they develop in the womb the first opening they develop is the anus.
This means that at one point you were nothing but an asshole.

Some people never develop beyond this stage.

Never been kicked out of a superhighway, last time I had trouble where I went through a superhighway and ended up 1000+km away from my destination was before 4.0 and I was following an escort ship on autopilot to Glaring Truth.

But still a bug like that never got in my way of enjoying the game.

Personally I like being occasionally kicked out of a SH.. if it's convenient. Gives me a boost to exploring areas that would otherwise be ignored due to distance (eg the 'ribbon' in DV) ;)

IMO it also makes a certain amount of sense, if the chance is set suitably low (<0.1% per tick?). IRL odd things /do/ happen after all, even on highways!

Provided <player> has at least 1 capship to retrieve them it shouldn't be more than a minor annoyance (so set plot players' chance for this to zero before they retrieve their Rahanas)
