Playing as an Independent Pirate, I went to an Indi shipyard to build a ship, but found I couldn't because I didn't have faction rank. As far as I know, nobody can have faction rank with Independents. Does this mean Independent worlds have custom design facilities but nobody can ever use them, or am I missing something?

Genghis Hank : you're right. Independents never provides you access to the dry dock so, I think, you can design and buy a ship but you won't be able to recover it from the dock. My advice would be to go to friendly planet and build your ship there. Hope that helps

It just seems a little odd. If Independent planets don't care about rank, why wouldn't they sell to anyone? If it were an anti-faction thing, then why not at least to Indi traders? From the player side, I was just trying to stick to the "trust you more if you fly a ship from your own faction" idea.

I will look into this issue under Ticket #2719 ST - Bug - Indy World Dry Dock Traps Designed Ships? Just saw this as I posted. From last night, I didn't get a trapped ship. I could move sliders but where the cost would be I saw the message about not having faction rank and being able to access the military part of the starport, even though I could. |

As an independent you can still obtain ranks with the houses and syndicates and build ships in their docks.
Flying an indy Flagged ship will make no difference to how Indys react to you as they operate differently to the houses and syndicates.
Indy space and ships are always in 'free for all' and aggressive indys will always attack regardless.

Hey cory i want to know if the award fist of shalun for taking victory in 1117 battles is an easter egg or not? Because 1117 is an odd number for the award There is a legend that Shalun's flagship destroyed 1117 ships during the pre-construction phase of the Guild War. It was this impossible string of victories that inspired many Star Trader worlds to join the civil war. |
