What happens when you die in MP? Also a question about stations.

Post by KyrahAbattoir »

I know that IF you play with a server that let you use SP accounts you can reload your last save, but what happens on servers that do not allow local accounts?

Is there an "EVE style" mode where you lose whatever was destroyed, but you keep your account balance and have to use it to build a new ship?

Also what are the benefits of the eject key?


I've also seen several options in stations for putting ships and cargo in storage, if i understood well it comes to a price right?
When i tried stashing my only ship i had what appears to be two ships, yet only one really existed. Is that a bug? Or should i be able to have "no ship" and be basically stuck inside the station?

The game auto saves when you do some things such as build a station and such but you do not want to rely on a auto save.:)

I think the default quick save key is ALT+F9. I've heard that this can bump you out of multiplayer sessions though. I've gotten in the habit of sometimes carrying very cheap commodities because when you 'jetison cargo' it performs an autosave wherever you are.

alt + f9 has never booted me from MP

you should save often, save save save then save again.
oh, and remember to save......
:)


the game will never leave you without a ship.
nor will it let you save or exit without a ship.

And save to different slots/profiles to have a variety of options as we have a lot (99) slots to use if needed.:)

:cool: But ... if you quick-save while in a turret (as gunner), you will get booted from the turret ... and put back in your own cockpit.
