Spacecraft velocity in arvoch alliance

Hi, guys!

Do you guys know how fast a spacecraft can go in arvoch alliance? While the spacecraft's maximum velocity in evochron mercenary is 7,900 meters per second. Thanks!

Cheers,
Vincent

Yes, 10k/s. In Arvoch Aliance you can not travel from sector to sector because missions are 1 sector based at a time and you can not leave that sector freely as in Mercenary so you can cross the sector from edge to edge in about 3 1/3 of a minute on jumpdrive. Again this is a game and done this way in Arvoch Aliance to keep a sense of realism in a scaled down Universe to have a balanced time aproach in the dynamics of the game!.....

Hi, Maarschalk!

So, in arvoch alliance, the game will crash to desktop with an error message if you travel more than 1 sector, right? I think the spacecraft in evochron mercenary should have a higher maximum velocity without a jump drive or without a fulcrum drive than arvoch alliance. Thanks!

Cheers,
Vincent

It will not crash to desktop. You will just fail the mission in Arvoch Aliance. You will explode and the mission fails and you start back at the last mission you where on!. You have every right to your opinion to think space craft in Evochron Mercenary should have a higher maximum velocity for cruise speed with out a jumdrive then it currently has! Imho though the balance in speed is just right for the scale of this Universe. Vice the Creator of this game did get a lot of feed back from players over the 9 years or so in game making to balance this game the way it is currently concerning speeds, timing....etc....etc!....

Cheri you have pointec out your perspective as i count, many times, and yes we have heard you, can you rest now?

I mean all due respect but your message about velocity has been heard and hopefully Vice has read it, case closed

I can't find a "distance" designation in the game's text.dat file ... so why not just assume the distances are a lot greater than Vice posted. That way, you're already going a lot faster than everyone else is going ... leastwise, faster than those who are using Vice's distance definition.
