How Do I Answer Distress Calls

Post by ZenMonkey11 »

I have no idea on how to resond to a Distress Call. Do I look for the Distress Call on my nav map (and if so what would it look like) Is there a button key I press to answer the call like a cell phone. Help! :P

Thanks Marvin for providing the link. Also I forgot to mention that you will not receive distress calls if you have turned the feature to Receive distress calls of!....;):cool:

I like the distress calls in the game. I just wanted to know how to find the ship that's in distress. I think they give me the coordinates on the left hand side in the text box, correct?

:cool: The left-hand side lists your current coordinates. The right-hand side is where you type in where you want to go. For distress calls, you need to do it manually (typing) ... as opposed to just clicking on the nav map (whereupon the coordinates are entered automatically). Enter the coordinates listed in the distress call. And don't get sector coordinates (SX, SY, SZ) confused with in-sector coordinates.
