"official" or "Public" Multiplayer Server... Loot back discarded cargo

Dragongard · Post by **Dragongard** » Sun Sep 18, 2011 3:23 pm

Hello

I'm a newbie and after playing the demo i bought the game today.

I have 2 questions and i hope you can help me:

The first one is in the demo i discarded my cargo by mistake... is there a way to "reloot" it? I didn't find a container near my ship...

the second question: Is theire a public or official multiplayer server? I think i will play alone first but it is good to know if theire is a server where the most of the community play together

Thank you in advance.

p.s: Sorry for my english.. its not my native language but i try to improve it

Hi Dragongard.

About the dropping cargo by mistake, I don't think there is anyway to beam it back into your ship... it just disappears.

There is only one public server that I know of, and that is Remula One. I only have Evochron Mercenary, so I'm not sure about the other games if they have a public server or not. There are a lot of helpful pilots on there that would be glad to help you out.

Hope to see you out there in space sometime.

Assuming you bought Mercenary, Remula One is the place to go. Today, being a Sunday, is normally when you'll find most help on the server ... you just need to ask after logging on. And the easiest way to ask for help is to press the Enter key to open the little Chat window, type in your question, and then press Enter again to send.

To see who and how many are already on the server, press the tilde key (~) and check the upper-right part of your monitor screen.

Hello Dragongard, If you jettison ( J key ) your cargo you should see it behind you and you can beam it back aboard, if you left click on a cargo item it is lost for good or so I think. I may have that wrong but someone will correct me if I do (LOL). Welcome to the forum and the Sim. Have fun and hope to see you in Multi-Player sometime.

As for the server as Cindy says Remula one is the server for Mercenary if that is the game you have.

thank you for help

Yes its mercenary. Its a great game, the freedom is unbelievable!

. I think i will play single player for a while and then i'll try the server.

Space sims are my favourite games and i'm surprised that i havn't found evochron before. My favourite game series until now was x but there was always one thing that annoyed me : The freedom to flight where i want.... the only way to get to another sector was jumping through the gates. Evochron seemed to be a lot better!

Gates are good but to explore you need this type of Sim. With the auto pilot function you can just type in some coordinates and sit back and watch. I like to control the jumps myself at times though so I miss less.

thetiebiers is correct - If you jettison (using the button in the inventory screen) your containers are floating next to you. If you press F1 or F2 they seem to disappear

The game is great... i jumped direct into a star (a good advice: don't do that

) ... i know its an idiotic act but the freedom that i CAN do it is fantastic

If you hire a good navigator you wont do that:P but then you have lost that option:P!

its possible to hire someone? o.o

Post by **Marvin** » Sun Sep 18, 2011 6:21 pm

If you're flying a civilian ship, there's room for one or more crewmen ... depending on the ship's size. The option to hire a crew is available when docked.

You can also "hire" a Gunner in multiplayer.

Connect to another player where one is pilot with all his/hers weapons and the Gunner has Lasers and Guns!;)

Great fun and also a great way to learn combat. Just connect as a gunner to a good fighter and sit back and
enjoy the ride watching how he/she is working in combat.

From post: 115264, Topic: tid=7994, author=Dragongard wrote:its possible to hire someone? o.o

In Singleplayer, it is possible to hire other ships to help you, but that is not available in MP. In Mp, you have only to ask other players to share in your mission and if completed, everyone gets paid the same.
The option to hire crewmen is the same for both SP & MP.
And the option for two ships to join as one in MP has already been described.
So, there are quite a few ways you can hire either ships, a crew, a gunner or just share a contract. Or all of the above.
And before you ask, there are no capitol ships you can fly.
Come join us, you won't be dis-appointed.
See you soon... MM
