Biggest news is the Chojeir installation at S 18.221 W 40.781 which will be used for our Battle Royale subgames!

  • BYOV? If you have a vehicle you want to bring (like an E-11) you are welcome to fly there prior to the battle starting
  • Players will get an option to leave the apartment and transport directly to the arena and will be given one of 11 armed A-4 Wanderers fueled and ready to go
  • You can go there anytime to practice
  • If you die you will be returned to the apartment and the death isn't counted against your character or experience
  • You will be presented an option when you land anywhere inside the 50km radius from Chojeir to return to your apartment.

2.2.18.8 Dock Telemetry Update

Biggest change is the dock telemetry. We used to calculate the position once per frame based on an epoch and the orbital parameters. Now the server actually runs these calculations and progresses the orbit and synchronizes the epoch with the client when you log in! This was done to reduce slight precision errors we have seen develop over the last 15 years since the server was started. It also lightens the computational load that the client is responsible for!

Also in this release:
  • Fix for C-2A and A-4 interior texture oddities
  • Enhancements for admin tools (orbital rendezvous testing, dock reposition)
  • Bank rebranding project is complete, signs installed!
  • Fix for TVM to vehicles/PODS on parent vehicles that are "open air" storage
  • Fixed aerospace keycard (flaps UP and flaps DN were flipped)
  • Removed NIDAR instrument from C-2
  • AGL no longer calculated for ACL ships on the scanners
  • Communications "chit" was incorrectly showing "Players" verbiage
  • Fix for subtitle scale and position
  • Fixes for ground vehicles that were able to get onto their sides
  • Origin now supported on Community Objectives
  • Veridian Bank home page now splits local vs. off-world commodity futures totals
  • Pocketful of Quarters integration now supports refresh tokens
  • 25% reduction in water vapor stream globally to improve ceiling and visibility

Battle Royale and Closed Captioning

It is still pretty early in the implementation but we have added a Battle Royale variation to the game. When a Battle Royale is scheduled there will be a TFR (Temporary Flight Restriction) posted on the Player Portal. If you want to be included, be in the TFR at the start of the match. Last player standing wins! New achievements and badges are already available.



The new Polaroid inventory item (from the O-4 Salvage bonuses) is now visible in all vehicle types.

Closed Captioning is now available for ATC communications (Configuration->Interface->Closed Captioning) and is translated to the language of your choice.
