Stating that if i was to drop a very valuble item infront of the UFO it would take it and lead me to a reward...

So heres the question, UFO rewards Fact or Fiction???

I think that's a feature of the treasurehunt script, see here.

If that is the case, then you need to activate the treasure hunt in the Artificial life settings.
New extended mod required.

the ufo's run the same script as the Goner ships you see flying around, which means, if you drop something, no matter what, the ufo ain't gonna take it and lead you to anything , espicially not the "UFO base"

I wish people would quit trying to keep the ufo theroies alive, and face facts, If there was a UFO base then modders would have found it alread, i mean dont you think it's strange that everyone who found the ufo base, cant upload images, got a virus that destroyed the photos?

Also, you cant fly around a planet, at a certain point in the sector, it'll wrap around and you'll wind up on the other side.

Also Modders can make scripts where they can place sattelites in every single sector in an array that makes everything visible, and, GUESS WHAT, NO UFO BASE!

So, Ufo's do nothing more then fly around the universe, hoping to capture your attention, personally i shoot them down if they come close to me!

Let the ufo conspiracys DIE people, PLEASE!

The UFO is not capable.

See my earlier post, this thread is referring to a feature of a script, not another UFO rumour.
