Welcome back, Galactic Survivalists!
For today's blog, we would like to give you more insight on a device feature, a lot of you have asked for.
Until now, you could make use of the device in question in NPC stations and some dungeons.
Now, it will be available to you players: Teleporters!
(New CV teleporter model)
The Teleporters will come in two versions:
- Teleporter for bases. Their range will be 30 LY
- Teleporter for capital vessels. They will allow you to teleport within a sector, what means between Planet <-> Orbit, Planet <-> Moon, Orbit <-> Moons etc. No need to EVA over to a space station anymore!
There are a few constraints of course.
- You can NOT teleport to another PLAYER or PLAYER FACTIONS teleporters! You can only use your own teleporters, those of your faction and from NPC factions you are at least in a friendly state.
- It is not possible to teleport FROM or teleport TO a CV that is currently MOVING
- It is not possible to use a CV or BA teleporter (as outgoing-transport) when a) shields are active b) the structure is under fire (cooldown of 20 seconds after last “hit”)
Incoming teleports currently can end on devices that are off or behind a shield - of course only if you ‘allowed’ to use the teleporter as a target.
If there is any condition that denies you to use a teleport target, its destination simply will not show in the teleporter target overview.
We hope you will like this little feature improvement.
As usual, feel free to post an questions to the comments. :)
Read you soon,
