STAR SYSTEMS FOR THE CHOP

by Hazed

Every now and then we go through the star systems that are loaded into the game and thin them out a bit, to reduce the size of the ridiculously long list generated by the ‘DI SYSTEMS’ command, and to speed up the loading of the game.

We take out systems that are abandoned – that is, owned by players who haven’t been in the game for at least three years. You can see if a system has been abandoned because it’s marked on the system display; and a player’s SpyNet Report will say they haven’t been seen since before Diesel started selling her Old Peculiar ale.

The first set of star systems from this pass through the list will be taken out next weekend. They are:

  • Acorn – Sol cartel, planet Oak, owned by Risu
  • Addams – Sol cartel, planets Mox, Outcast and Qzar, owned by Fester
  • Alex – Sol cartel, planet Roblox, owned by Minibastile
  • Aman – Armory Cartel, planet Valinor, owned by Frodo
  • Archai – Havefun Cartel, planets Gaia and Oceania, owned by Dingbat
  • Ardeliu – Sol cartel, planets Carpathia and Castle Lab, owned by Nosferatu
  • Ash – Sol catel, planet Dust, owned by Fizlok

If you have depots, warehouses or factories on any of these planets, sell them now or you will lose them.

In addition, the following system has already been taken out because it doesn’t have any property on it:

  • Ankles – Sol cartel, planet Talus, owned by Shin

I’ll give you the list of the next set of star systems to go in the next Fed2 Star.
