Map traffic

posted on May 31st, 2011, 3:00 am

I know npc's are confirmed for the future. However I had some thoughts about bringing more life to maps. I was thinking that "traffic" would be a neat addition for maps. This may have been suggested before but having random vessels that cruise a set path would be cool.

In addition I'd love for Malon export vessels to be map objects. They'd make great npc traffic and if they had a crew killing radiation field around them that would be cool.

Boggz has been harassing poor Optec about this forever, too .  Fear not, for even Boggz has faith that cool new map thingies will happen sometime soon

personally, that would one of the most impressive new feature! A living map up that game into another galaxy. I.e. first some creeping around the natural expansions do get some rang-ups and than doing some raids on the enemy or even sneaky romulans try do get advantages when there army is waiting for a careless player how try to do some npc ships. jummy!
