SHIP FIGHTING AND PEACE LOCATIONS

by Hazed

Yes, it's true - ship fighting is coming back! This means that one of the flags you can put on locations on your space map suddenly becomes important - the Peace flag. This designates the location as a fighting-free area.

Ship fighting will be implemented... well... soon-ish, whatever that means in Fed. (Two weeks, or by Christmas?) So you've got a while to think about making any changes to your peace flags. It's entirely up to you whether you allow fighting in your star system or not - subject to a few rules:

  • Link and orbit locations will automatically be peace locations - you can't change this
  • If the route between the Link and orbit of a planet is not a safe route (ie it includes non-peaceful locations) then a warning must be posted at the link so players are prepared to defend themselves
If you do make any changes, send your space map to feedback@ibgames.com (don't forget to put Fed2 in the subject line) and please include in the email the name of your star system, and your character name.
