Idea for getting round quick in XOU

Instead of having the seti which is an obvious implausability in XOU y not ... borrow the cruise engine from freeelancer and just make it faster..

I guess you meant "SETA", we will have to wait and see if this feature will be at all in XOU. As I can not see how to implement this in an on line game.

Cheers

I think he pointed out how to do it..


SETA, would just make your ship travel faster in a line, so you set it running and your ship would speed up, but you'd not be able to turn at all...


So it would work... unless XOL will get around it be having no speed limit..
I would like to point out that I somtimes go off at tangets to prove a point and thus try and keep up, also I often use humor to difuse situations so please unerstand any or all of my comments may or may not be jokes. Thankyou for your time.

Ah yes, but if you 'borrow' the cruise engine then you would have to steal the cruise disrupter aswel, otherwise it would be very annoying to see your pray zoom off as it's about to die.

Could the jump drives not be used? iirc they were for jumping from anywhere to anywhere not useing gates at all. The X scientists have unlocked half of the technology, why not the rest. And as no-one yet knows exactly where earth is, then the development need not interfere with the plot.

Of course I may be forgetting some vital bit of plot here.. anyone care to correct? :?

Kyle what's-his-face knows where earth is and goners could probably have a good guess.
