X3TC Terracorp HQ Destroyed by Paranid Screeny &Q's

Post by XForumShadow » Fri, 22. Aug 14, 15:42

Also destroyed Crystal fab...

Great as it is to have my Following Mistral yumming up all the goodies..

Will the Terracorp HQ re-Spawn in the same place?
If so how long?

PS could someone let me know if this link works. I've just installed dropbox.
TY

It'll respawn, but if you were doing HQ missions from it, the missions are forever broken. (I don't remember if that HQ has missions, though)

Terracorp HQ most definitely has a mission sequence, leading to some unique ships as rewards. There is a way to reset the mission start but it requires a visit to the S&M forum and results in a **modified** game.
Have a great idea for the current or a future game? You can post it in the [L3+] Ideas forum.

The 2 MASSIVE paranoid ships are still in Home of light (as is my advanced satellite) How long (if ever under these circumstances) will it take for the TCHQ to respawn?

I've not done any missions from TCHQ. Will they also be restored if the station respawns?

Should I find an old game to restore :cry: or just be patient?

As long as you don't have a rank in them, they should be fine.
I don't know how long it takes for a HQ to respawn. Probably a few game days.

I've scooped up my Adv satellite and SETA'd 1000x for a while (whilst out of the sector).

A marine barracks has appeared in the sector on the west side. The burnt remains of the TCHQ is there but nothing yet.

My plan is to SETA for a while and hope all becomes well then test to see if I can get a mission from it (if it re-appears)

Then I can reload my game from AFTER getting all the goodies for a while and contemplate how the hell I'm gna find 500 Computer chips.

Does this sound like the best course of action?

I SETA'd up just beyond the S gate from HoL And (after watching a bit of the F1 on TV)

I saw a few (very mediocre fighters and a corvette) Argon military ships heading towards the Paranid sectors (They are going to get absolutely hammered)

I then flew back to HoL and the TCHQ was back! Hooray!

:oops:
I was unfortunately killed in an Autopilot Jumpgate incident flying back to HoL.

:idea:
But I was around long enough to see that the rebuilt TCHQ had a lightbulb over it.

I assume from that evidence, that its safe to re-load a game from after the Paranid Invasion of HoL -- keep the spoils of war, watch the retaliation and carry on. And keep my "Mistral-Follow" on standby to mop up the spoils of war again!

Also in the meantime I got my 1st message from marine training - so at least that works too.

This is a heluva good game. :)

Not necessarily. Terracorp HQ can generate generic missions as well as corporate ones. The only way to tell is to check the mission giver and see if they're a Terracorp NPC.

Ok. I'll SETA up again. I've never had a mission from TCHQ so I assume if it is rebuilt I'll get the 1st mission (without any pre-requesites)

If you have never taken their opening mission you will be fine. It's...

go escort some guys from ... Antigone Memorial maybe ...back to HoL and is a pain in the neck because as soon as anyone starts shooting they scatter in all directions like idiots.

500 eh?
unfortunately that'll be only the top of the iceberg.
my advice is to build as many Chip Plants as possible.
because you need them later on...
