A Spacefly collecting corp will work?

Post by LTerSlash » Thu, 12. Mar 09, 10:55

I wonder this, i always like to try it since there is no source of spaceflys in the universe, i dont care its expensive, my plan is to build up a trade station, and them use like 5 makos to collect spaceflys... i wonder if.

1) spacefly hunting will work in OOS.

2) the makos will drop off the spaceflys at the trade station.

I'd think the main question is can non-player ships actually hunt spaceflies?

Wont work as the AI wont fire at anything other than an enemy and I dont believe spaceflies are on the race list.

You probably could mod or script it!

I have yet to see spaceflies outside the unfocused jump sectors

I've seen them in regular sectors on the Anonymous Argon start at least.
Seen mosquito like things fluttering past the cockpit.
But I've never bothered investing in the spacefly collector extension so never actually tried it.

One also needs an Ion-D to stun them with.
