I understand the thing about "sucks", ...but i don´t see any problems in the FFE Control Mode!!?? What I mean is: In most space games from 2005 and after, the flying direction of a ship can be controlled by simply moving the mouse which is so much easier.I must say that it's now a long time that I'm not using a conventional mouse anymore, but a trackball mouse. Also I rarely use a Joystick, I will only use a Saitek X52 (with separate throttle) when playing flight simulations like Falcon 4 or similar where 10 or more actions can be programed. As for Pioneer being a sequel to Frontier: The devs almost made it! They still have to implement the Military Factions with the corresponding missions. But you realize that this is not a walk in the park, say: easy, do you? Currently, I'm very busy with The Precursors for which I try to fix the framerate issue on ATI cards, I always go indepth with problems like that... but I'll follow this thread closely. Will get in my game archives to find the combat tips from Alioth.net for FFE, the best you can find. Eventually I will upload them (this fan site isn't active any more). XenonS P.S.Hi Tourist, do you take a break with Genesia

Question about keybindings: are there some keys to toggle the rotation dampers without clicking the icon, and to toggle the navigation tunnel without passing through the settings screen? If there are, I'll add them to the wiki page

Tichy... On the control setup screen it lets you assign a key to it, the default is "r" I believe.

Don't worry

I only found out because I always use WASD for lateral and vertical thrusters, R for forward and F for back. I kept spinning out of control seemingly at random and then one day I finally noticed the toggle... I'd actually forgotten about it until yesterday when I finally grabbed a native linux version and had to reset all my controlls

can anyone please help a newbie and tell me how to sell a ship. i cant believe there wouldnt be an option for this. i know how to sell equipment. Im not a fan of the start ship, the wave or whatever. Ive been changing the price value of the lunar shuttle to a dollar so i can start with a nice ghetto ship with no equipment and only a hundred bucks. I like to work from the bottom up in a sand box game. Just my preference. Also i read an early post about someone who wanted a light on their ship. Has this been done? Another thing that would make the game more realistic would be atmospheric magnetization, which makes our moon and sun alot bigger than they are, like how we see them from our planet. Or does this happen? Im continualy blown away by this game its got me so addicted to space stuff. haha. I wouldnt change much else (maybe a more realistic date(3200 is pretty damn far in the future to be "pioneering" space)). One more inquiry, can you actually slingshot?

Go to the shipyaar and it's the bottom option, you don't sell the ship you trade it in for another :)Trading down to a shuttle should give you quite a bit of cash! We haven't got a light on the ship since we don't really support it in the renderer right now.

Erm, F4 to open comms, shipyard, buy-or-trade ships.If there's no ships then accelerate the time and it won't stay empty for long. I'll try and reply more later just heading out now.

all i see when i click shipyard is ship equipment, repairs and servicing, and new and reconditioned ships. i click on the latter and see no option to trade. and when i click view on the desired ship theres only a buy this ship option. ive looked up down. I have the latest game, but i couldnt figure it out before either. ... thanks

When you buy a ship you're effectively trading because you can only own one ship in the game. If the ship you're buying is cheaper than the one you currently have then the difference in price is added to your money.There are two main ways to get those other ships.One is to download Pioneer Genesia. [url]http://spacesimcentral.com/ssc/topic/3443-new-game-total-mod-pioneer-genesia/[/url] It's a totally separate game, based on the older Pioneer modelling system. There's some really cool stuff in there. Tourist has done a great job with it.The other is to download Scout+ [url]http://spacesimcentral.com/ssc/topic/3229-new-game-mod-pioneer-scout/[/url] which is a mod for Pioneer and goes in your mods folder.I suggest you read through the entire topics before you try them. It can be a bit confusing at first.
