Same observation as FooF:

I love the new in-system ambient music.

The sector feels more hostile with all those threatening scavenger fleets. Though those proved to be good logistic ship source after defeating two in the same system. 

I do have a minor complain: the planet displayed when surveying can have a large / bright / in your face purple corona-something-something (that's probably the way planet's magnetic field is displayed), it is too much in my opinion. Could be more subtle with, say, reduced opacity or a darker tone.

Thank you for the new version.

Insulated Engine Assembly's S-mod bonus is a smuggler's dream come true. Why is this the thing I'm most excited about?

Ah, interesting! I'll need to take a look at it in that specific context; though, fun fact - the brightness is *already* reduced! Entirely possible that we didn't go too far with it, though.

Of course, same week as AOW4

Are you sure about the invictus alex ? it seems incredibly unbalanced and i don't like where this is going

in the sim i lasted 5 mins without shooting or moving, against a paragon, an astral , 2 onslaughts, and a conquest without shooting back or moving

Sorry, I picked up the game after the last release so I'm not sure how mod updates are communicated.

Is the main index list updated as they are or do we need to monitor each one's thread?

Edit: NVM - I see they are starting to get updated on the index list already. I'll just keep an eye on that.

I do believe the "Old Man" mission might be ... repeating? Though, perhaps something got gummed up in the works when I reloaded a save at some point or another, but I'm fairy certain I delivered that man already and yet he's popped up again.

I'm of course not sure of anything, and am going to keep an eye on it! That said, the Paragon alone takes it out in ~200 seconds (compared to about 50 seconds to take down an Onslaught), and the 5 ships combined do it in under 100. And if you're talking with skills, that's not a very useful reference point.

Oh, hmm. The one you pick up on Asharu, right? Making a note, thank you!

[Deageon]

Yup! I'm using the station as storage, so it was noticable when I swung back around and saw him again.

I gotta say, I'm loving these new quests!

I have a question regarding the Ballistic Rangefinder. It's supposed to boost hybrid weapons but I fail to see any changes when mounting the now hybrid Mining Blasters or any other hybrid weapon. Is there something odd going on?

I think it's only effective if the hybrid weapons are mounted in Ballistic-only slots. Last I recall, it's the SLOT TYPE that's factored into whether the weapon is affected or not.

That's what I've been trying out, tried with any ship with a large and medium ballistic and Rangefinder, Mining Blaster in medium ballistic, expecting range boost to 700u.

Id say right now that it is the best ship in the game ... better even than a radiant.

EDIT: it doesn't even feel like a vanilla ship, more like a mod. When i go to the hesperus, it just looks off to have these massive and odd looking ships just next to an eradicator ....

Ahh, Ballistic Rangefinder is bugged, not affecting any hybrid weapons at all. Fixed this up!

Is smuggling changed in some way? it feels like i always get suspicion even when i buy high quantities of the same commodity in the open market, and the suspicion level seems to go up way faster.

Edit: Unrelated but upon returning to Chalcedon and visiting the bar it always shows the option to follow Sedge even if you already completed the quest.

[Forever Templar]

Heh, what a nice way to end Golden Week. Thank you for your hard work, Alex.

Hmm - not that I recall!
