From Valera Selev To Alexander von Wolf 21 January 2002

In the virtual space SPBZXNET.GAMES on Saturday, January 19, 2002, Alexander von Wolf spoke to everyone about --- ELITE --- [docs 2/2]... [skipped] AvW> PIRATES AvW> ~~~~~~ AvW> Ships that refused to respond to the request are pirates. How to send a request? AvW> very fast and maneuverable. These ships carry constant AvW> duty at the stations "CORIOLIS" and AoW> "DODO" and ready For some reason I only saw stations of one type... Maybe someone has a different one situation? AvW> There are rumors that the Targondans have learned to “float” in AvW> hyperspace and can intercept people passing there AvW> ships. Has anyone encountered this? AvW> Aged pirates and exiles from planets are very common AvW> settle on lonely asteroids. Usually they choose AvW> asteroid AvW> are larger and install a warning beacon And how to see this lighthouse? AvW> SHIPS OF GENERATIONS AvW> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AvW> SPACE PLATFORMS AvW> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~AvW> These ships can be found in areas where there was war AvW> They are tens of miles long. People live on them AvW> from disaster. They have heavy weapons and a fleet AvW> fighters. Avoid them at all costs. Has anyone seen these two types? AvW> A technological laser is needed to extract minerals AvW>fossils By the way, they are also good at shooting at pirates. :) AvW> FUEL COLLECTORS AvW> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AvW> In addition, using this device you can collect AvW> cargo containers and pump fuel from the defeated AvW> ships. Which ship is considered defeated? It’s not written on it... Ship can either exist or be destroyed. Is it possible that sometimes it happens like this? situation: you shoot a little at a peaceful ship, a container flies out of it, and the ship itself quickly moves away in the opposite direction from you. :) Maybe is this the loser? AvW> so keep them at the bottom of the screen and move AvW> towards them. Is it really possible to pump fuel from ships? AvW> ADDITIONAL CARGO COMPARTMENTAvW> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AvW> It will increase your carrying capacity from 20 to 35 tons. Not enough. Very little. This makes the game uninteresting. You can do more in Elite-3 hang. AvW> Do not approach the planets marked in the information as AvW> ANARCHIC or FEUDAL (ANARCHY or FEUDAL). On the contrary, it’s a funny thing - you’re flying on your own, and the pirates are so small and stupid, that’s all they poke you under your nose, and you hit them with a laser and knock out containers from them. :) AvW> PRIZE HUNT AvW> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AvW> Galactic insurance companies pay АоW> large Well, very big! 5 - 30 Cr... :( AvW> SEARCH FOR CARGO CONTAINERS AvW> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ AvW> As a result of hostilities or natural disasters AvW> in AvW> containers with goods remain unassembled in space. Has anyone come across containers flying freely in space? In general, the toy is nothing (as for 1984). But the final goal is unclear (in it’s not in the description you suggested). I know that Raxxl needs to look for her, but since sheno one has found it yet, then the assumption arises that there is no such planet at all, i.e. the game simply loses its meaning. Maybe the authors were joking like that? :) I myself played the subject for several months, reaching, in my opinion, Dangerous (and maybe Deadly), but I didn’t find anything. Climbed all 8 galaxies several times, and then I got tired of it and abandoned it. I'm shocked: can't our glorious coders finally make their own 3D game? such a plan, cool and fast, with a ton of ship types, with a complete _idea_, a normal interface, a bunch of weapons, etc.? Or there are enough of them only for virtually useless demos and a bunch of highly optimized ones procedures??? _Eighteen years_ of the platform, and in addition to Elite and a crooked demo version there is nothing about the abandoned Awaken project... <<< WBR, Stormbringer/Cobra Software >>> <<< 500:322/67.64 >>> <<< 2:462/167.64 >>> <<< http://cobrasoft.narod.ru >>>

From Aleksey Senilov To Oleg Groskow 26 February 2002

Hello, Oleg! February 24, 2002 16:38, Oleg Groskow wrote to Evgeny Mamaev: EM>> I exploded then...Then I had to go through the cops to the station EM>> break through... OG> I don’t understand anything... How to blow up stations? I didn't blow up one... I repeat again... You need to have an ESM Jammer (blocks all ESM, including on station!), then first it’s better to use joint.comp, do what you need, save for example, you buy rockets ;) And the most important thing: you fly out of it, turn around, aim the rocket, and when you come close, FLY! Result: no station, Fugitive status, and several "Right On Commander". Pieces blow up ten and you're the Elite. Another thing is that you need to earn this same ECM Jammer. And they give him on a mission to destroy the station captured by the Targons. Although, if it’s really close, you can do it without a jammer. The ECM simply won't keep up work. All the best! Boh/Image Crew was with you.
