Good job that I did not have the money to pay him. :D Looking at the conversation log it really unclear who is acting for,and I wonder if DS intended that this mediator would act for both the citizens and bandits same as the one on Reandore and they just never got around to finishing it.

I think it's clearly obvious that he means the civilians, he is talking about "your people" and the "Amarns" a lot. But I think that DS intended the representatives in the BBK to be mediators but never got around it. I made it so and I also added Kasterly for the civilians and Scrubby for the bandits.

Well back to hunting the dragon when I remember how to control the ship in space. :roll: Just realised that this pic of a jump gate may be a nod to the Tomorrow War game and not the dull X games.Now all we need is for some enterprising eastern European/Russian developer to put the Tomorrow war and the precursors together into one game, Give it a big enough universe to get lost in and you would have one hell a great game probably also have a huge amount of bugs in it. Any one wanting some fast money on Golden do the mother inlaw mission at the garage.Nearly got it :lol: Some sort transport link between the planet and moon sadly you can’t land on the planet so it does not look like there is any missions connected with it.

The bad thing is that hidden content inside the game files implies that landing on the moon Negletik above was indeed planed at one time but not included with the finished game. I wonder if this could somehow be restored?

Be good if can be but how much is there, would there have to be new graphics or can the existing graphics be used.Well I found the Dragon and I’am definitely going to need a better ship :lol: although I did got about 50 missiles into it before I got killed. :D

If you look at the Negletik files with the recently released editor of the SDK you can see that there are a lot of unused graphics already inside the game. Now somebody would only need to learn how to use that editor ;)...

Just found a fuel can first time I have ever found one in the game it’s in a locked ammo case by the low wall next to the machine repairing the buggy at the garage. It gives you a new option under the F key to refuel unfortunately it seems to the only one as it has not respawned yet.

You can use it to refuel Hansa (yes, those animals can ran out of "fuel", and Fuel Can is only way to make them move again).

That’s hilarious nuclear powered Hansa :lol: Have you found any fuel cans on Gil if not them maybe wesp5 can do some thing for the next patch.

Personally, I would rather prefer if Wesp5 could find if Hasna "fuel" value is set in resource files, and if so, to see if it could be increased.

True. Buggies are very limited in Gil, and are lacking any refuel/restock options. And almost all of them are obtained as part of quests for DU.

The problem right now is that we don't know where a lot of parameters are set, like fuel, state or ammo of vehiclesa and their lock level. These are not set in the resource file that I use to fix the translation and dialogue related mission bugs.

In the warehouse in the DU base on Gil you can buy goods from a guy called “shed” he now got some fuel to sell I could swear he didn’t have any before. :?: I also found one of my lost buggies and I think I remember parking the other one in one of the lakes now.

Hi, has someone ever encountered a grey tree with a huge orange tongue-tentacle coming out of it? If so, where?

Never seen anything like that where did you see it or have you found a mission connected to it. :?: I can now buy fuel cans in most of the trader inventories so I think finding that first one on Golden must have triggered something in the game.

I've found the model using the SDK, but I don't know if it was used or is unused content.

Is there any mission connected with this tourist hiding in a doorway on Goldin as theirs a short conversion about water which seems to indicate that there was more to it.
