Yep. Go into audio settings. You can set certain responses off.


Brilliant. Thanks.

forgive me for laughing at your misfortune but that was extremely funny


Ouch, unlucky, Skipp! I laughed too, sorry, but kudos for reporting it in such a funny way.

What I do when I get caught trespassing (I forget to request docking permission more often that I'd want to admit—say no to onion head, kids!), is that I immediately press the reverse thrust button. You're out much faster this way. And it doesn't matter if your ship is huge and takes ages to turn around.

always remember 'KGB FOAM' - those letters denote the star classes you can scoop fuel from. fortunately, they form the majority of stars


Mine is "Oh, Be A Fine Girl, Kiss Me", because I'd rather think about a fine girl kissing me than a KGB agent force feeding me foam. :)

I am getting settled in with my new HOTAS, and felt comfortable enough to take my DB Scout to a NAV beacon to hit a few wanted ships. I got a few small ships, which was exactly what I wanted since I'm not 100% up to speed with the new stick yet. Then I saw a lot of fire in the distance. Boost, boost, boost.... and I find the cops shooting at an ASP. What the heck? I had never seen a wanted ASP before. I KWS him and found that he had a bounty of almost $100,000! :shock: I was expecting some piddly 400cr bounty for friendly fire, but no.... he was a 'dangerous' ship and certainly worth taking out. Of course he died a quick and painless death when he "saw the light" of my Scout's beams. 8-)

Yeah, don't think I've seen more than one either. The last one I've seen had just about 30k on its head though. It was even before update 1.3 or I just have a bad sense of time.

Btw, does movement on the HOTAS sync properly with the pilot's arms in-game? I'm getting tired of seeing my pilot's hand not doing anything when I'm moving the ship around with a mouse. :lol:

Made it to Sag A at 0110 hrs this morning, going to bimble around for a while taking happy snaps and mooning the soooopermassive hole out my window :)

Later I may just possibly try to find a pub for a replen.
