I just purchased Voice Attack for $8 after I heard some players raving about it. It seems like it has great potential although I downloaded a config file for it and nothing seemed to work. However when I did my own commands they did work and there is great potential for navigating around the menus with voice and doing things like verbally instructing your ship to increase/decrease scan range and redistribute power, which is handy in a fight.
To do advanced programming I need to get a handle on "conditional" commands. There is hardly anything I've found online as far as guides. If anyone knows how to do sophisticated programming, please give a shout. And example of sophisticated programming using conditional commands would be instead of saying "left panel, right, select" for Transactions, would be to simply say "Transactions". In the config file I downloaded a command like this was full of conditional commands, making sure other configurations would not get in the way of the command.
To be more specific, from a forward view, you could make a command called Transaction by programming "1, Next Tab". The problem is that if you wanted to go there directly to Navigation by saying "navigation", you have to neutralize the current position of the view, back to a neutral forward views and then program "1" for the left screen which by default is on navigation. A conditional command could put the view back to a forward views, and if it's all ready in a forward views, then the command would be ignored. This probably does not make a lot of sense. Anyhow, the search continues.
He meant conflict zones. Those spawn in systems with a civil war. You fly there, pick a side (right-hand panel, "Functions" tab, the very first item) and then kill everything that's red.
I'll be honest, this might kill the game for me. Before I discovered Free Lance BH at extraction zones, I was not happy, was bored, running missions and trading. Yes, if there were riches to be made, I'd consider and could withstand several trading cycles, but the primary draw is dogfighting and finding a local where I could spend a couple of hours fighting. Take that away from me and all bets are off.
No idea. I haven't seen anything really conclusive on the ED forums yet and haven't played the 1.1 beta myself.
In fact, from my observations it seems as if some server patch a few weeks ago broke something regarding the commodity prices.
Errrm... I currently lugged some Beryllium from Duamta to Groombridge 1618 and earned about 1450 cr per ton...
I actually stumbled upon that route myself. I was in that area, trading metals between Lushertha and Ross 986 before (for about 1000 cr profit per ton) but decided after a while to slowly move closer to Sol again. Duamta/Groombridge 1618 were more or less on the way. The two systems are about 7.7 ly apart.
Ah, okay. That changes that of course.
No, I mean really persistent changes. I forgot which systems that were exactly, but the most contiguous observations I made concerned a minerals trade route somewhere at the "western" border of the Federation: one system had a high supply of minerals, the neighbouring system a high demand for that stuff, giving appropriate profit. Over the course of a couple of days, the demand slowly dwindled from high, over medium to low.
Where do you resupply at?
O2, food? I was trying to be clever.
Thanks for the report. My experience was the Cobra bounties used to be $14-25k so this definitely a substantial nerf. I'll report back after I've played.
