To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

my shots, go ahead some distance, but then they turn to the right and upward. This always happen when i shot my (lasers or plasma). I will upload a screenshot.

tnx

 

 Edit: This sometimes  happen when i shot my (lasers or plasma). I will upload a screenshot.

 

The shots seem to go further, and turn right in the direction the ship travel.

 

Probably that's because your ship isn't going straight. Its trajectory is influenced by some gravity well (planet, star), while the shoots are, instead, going straight. Simply, you are shooting them at different positions.

 

I reproduced what you have done. Set your orbit around a planet. Start shooting. If you are going at ~5-6km/s rel to the planet, you will see your shoots "turning" away from the planet when they are very far from you. Actually, it's your ship that's following a curved trajectory, not the bullets.

 

I see in your screen that you are going very fast. I think that the speed of the bullets is fixed. So, if you are shooting while the speed of your ship is near the speed of the bullets, you'll see that effect more pronounced.

Maybe the shots are not accurate, but when they hit, hurts!

And they look beautiful!

 

A Blues Brothers chase, in space?

Woo! Are you still alive?  :prankster:

Although much remains to be work in AI, we have a better visual effect in the game now.

Indeed! Although I'd also love to have a big bad hull-cutting laser.  :spiteful:

It's here!

Pioneer Scout Plus G8 version

G8-00.png

 

News

 

Something is happening in the galaxy. It is common to see huge cruise ships parked in the vicinity of the space stations in orbit. No one knows even their intentions. (Thanks Fluffyfreak)

G8-01.png

G8-02.png

G8-03.png

 

Improved the "assignments tariff system."

These are markedly increased with distance from Sun.  Much does a taxi in Agamemnon?

 

The price of "automatic propellant charge" in the stations is now consistent with the capability of the ship.

Was terminated the abuse of large ships that filled their huge tanks for $ 6 🙁

 

Appear colored buildings in cities.

Vlastan returns! But only the low buildings that do not exceed the height of the platforms.

G8-04.png

 

SPA members now will have a new electronic defense system, by means of an high intensity electromagnetic resonant pulse, disables the hostile ships systems, leaving momentarily to drift and, in some cases, it explode. This is automatically installed when associating to SPA. It does not weigh anything. No one has discovered where they install. The bad: Warning, this system acts to the receive three shots. Do not neglect. Other bad: The annual membership fee is now $ 2,600 🙁

 

Strangers "Knights" appear at points of jump of some uninhabited systems.

These challenging to fight, but the real intention is to distract the gullible to hack your account and steal your money. 🙁 You have ten seconds to get out of there! nine ... eight ... seven ... six ... five ...

 

 

Screen enhancements of Economy and Trade based on a proposed work radius75 on GitHub issue #2370

G8-05.png

 

And many smaller improvements.

 

Download free from here:  Pioneer Scout+ G8

 

Applicable to Pioneer Space Sim 201307.112 (or higher), all platforms.

 

Download free "Pioneer Space Sim 201307.112" from here:  Win32  Linux32  Linux64  OSX

 

Enjoy this.  :good:  :popcorn:

I fear it is a challenge for some older computers.

 

But it could work as an add-on mod. Assuming no problems with compatibility Paragon license.

This build (Pioneer Scout + and Paragon) works very well. But the author requested her not to publish.)))

"We'll make him an offer he cant refuse."  :codemafia:   :sarcastichand:

 

The Decorative Art is very important, but I'm focused on the game content, such as missions, etc.. I see Pioneer (so, in the current state) an excellent engine to develop many fantastic games.

 

Question: You have no correction to the translation?

The new texts came out with Google Translator

They understand?

Hi. Changes to the text are not significant. All to read comfortably.)

 

I suggest You do the mission "Rescue from pirates of the planet/the station," It is very similar to the scout mission.

Scout + G8 is not compatible with the version pioneer-201308.25 (aka August?)

 

To fix this, install this mod fixpatch:  zz-PioneerScoutPlus-FixPack-G8.01.zip

 

Big changes are coming in the nucleus of Pioneer. I'm waiting for the next release to release Scout + G9

Paragon is a commercial project, Pioneer Scout Plus is, and always will be, an open project, and free, but non-profit.

 

The objective of Scout+ is, accompany Pioneer, outside, and adding value to the kernel.
