Spithas - Today at 10:52 AM
@cory does range change roll against the enemy ships dice or is it only vs "self"?(edited)
basically what i wanted to ask is if both ships give advance orders. Is it possible for both to fail to move? or is it a guaranteed move?

Sinocelt My current game start strats are: 1. Trade into the ban and make an enemy, over time use patrol to reduce the negative rep. Or not, sometimes don't care about not being popular with a certain faction, depending on my captain 2. Use missions to earn money and get a Level 4 Trade Permit while waiting for the ban to end and yes! agree with contributor and @jr8825 that the rumor system has room for growth/balancing. Would also be super cool if it occasionally dropped a rumor of a story arc location.

There was a request on discord from juasonStates currently that armor does not auto-update/auto-select 'best' armor when upgrading weapons locker. Tho, armor will have different ideas of 'best' at some point... thoughts? |

HAH.. Oh, you know I already love this game. But the RNG can easily screw you sometimes off the bat, which is never fun. It can sometimes be a grind to get a solid start. But once you do, it's 1100% worth it Alex, I did a Let's Play for Star Traders Frontiers, and in Season 2 the first few episodes share ways to manage the hate and mitigate rep hits, improve rep with factions on the fly.

okay. @kade stated that game restart didn't fix issue. system restart fixed issue.
Just a data point just in case. 👍

from @kade Skirata from discord:
Kade Skirata - Today at 9:53 PM
Suggestion: (I'd love to hear opinions on it too), but I feel like the BH captain is stronk in CC, but weak at leading a captainy life. I think that's totally fine, but maybe something similar to the Pirate's "Menacing Demeanour" added to the talent pool at 1 or 5
"Letters of Marque" or "Judicial Immunity": When completing a Mission (influenced by an edict perhaps?), you reduce the Reputation damage you take by 1+Intimidate to a minimum of 1.
Would make Bounty Hunting missions far more viable early on, before you manage to pick up a Pirate officer at level 8 lol. Alternate starting gameplay styles.
OOOH "Just Bloodshed"

had additional discussion. His QuarterMaster is also a Military Officer. We'll keep an eye out for similar issues, but sounds like this was memory-related. System restart fixed the issue.

NOT IMPORTANT, yet. If you can imagine a time where potentially one would run into 6+ story arc missions, there might be a need to put a 'STAR' on missions, so that we can filter on active missions vs. potential missions (story arcs that haven't started/been chosen)  in my current game, I have 3 story arcs that I haven't chosen yet, but don't want to 'cancel' either. Just thinking forward to a time when I might have 10 story-arcs-in-waiting, plus 3 active missions... could get kinda messy to scroll through everything. Alternative would be a filter selection to accomplish the same thing? (filter on all missions, local missions, potential missions, active missions) <- or something like that Just 2 cents |

Came across Tuemette in my current game; chose to pay 50K to Prince Adax Thule. After arriving at his planet, I chose to pay the 50K and passed the dice roll. I was then returned to the Landing Zone screen. Not until I attempt to leave the planet does the story 're-engage' with me and Prince tells me that the BH will be called off. Seemed a bit awkward. I would have thought that the story-arc interaction with the Prince would have continued right after the successful dice roll test. Second, there is no active mission in my mission summary at this point. I assumed that there would be a 'story-arc' mission in the mission summary until I recontacted Tuemette (if nothing else, to be able to set a waypoint?), similar to De Rivesh, etc... The pic below shows my 'active missions' while I still have not returned to Tuemette to bring her the good news. Not really a bug, but more of a usability thingie. Was just a tad confused |

Imo Traits should get their own spreadsheet.Information gets too condensed into 1 place. But I will give it a try to see how it will look. Yah, I'm sorry I wasn't being clear. My thought was pulling traits that can help/hurt card games to put in another section of your spreadsheet. For example, since I have 2 crew with the SLY trait, I get a 20% bonus to intel gathering for spying. |

Kamate, That's a lot of good work. I think it's the first time I've seen a breakdown of the mini-games. One thing to consider adding to it would be the Talents/Ship components that help mitigate risk/increase rewards. Personally not a spreadsheet guy, but really sweet. And my friends that are spreadsheet guys, always helps them gain understanding, and allows min/max way beyond my understanding. +1 Thanks for the feedback MintDragon. I will add section Talents + Ship Components that help minigames.I will give this post some days for more constructive criticism/feedback and repost updated version. Just found a trait that helps spying too!  |
