Hello,

The interactions on installations in space brought in an update or so ago were fabulous but they are a bit wasted. I’m not suggesting cg’s here just background activities that can be joined in with.





Rescue Scenario: on galnet a story comes in that a scientific installation has been compromised to a serious fire outbreak. The station is on red alert and orders have been issued to evacuate. Search and rescue are overwhelmed and any commanders in the area are urged to help in the evacuation at Location ‘Bish bash bosh’. This lasts for a week.





Sabotage attack from a pirate faction: an installation could have been attacked and robbed leading to an evacuation. Hinted to players to help rescue and catch those responsible. The galnet article could report on the uprest in the system with the feds hunting down and protecting the search and rescue effort. They could keep coming back to rob more from the station.





Installation Suggestion: The technology is already there to pull this off. Installations & megaships in trouble would be repurposed from thargoid attacks to normal expected emergencies.

This can be weaved into other news articles on galnet which adds gameplay to stories told in the galaxy on galnet. This will add more depth to that story telling mechanic and gives players more to do. The second scenario would add something for rescuers and combatants. That system could be at war probably.





Finding installations Suggestion: installations on planets that can’t be landed on are included on the surface map. It would be nice for the installations and megaships around space to be included on the system map. It might be by design that players just come across them but I don’t think this works as it limits the activity to much. You cant interact with an installation if you don’t know where any are. Putting the excellent work put into that wasted.





Rescue Fighters: a lot more work. For those with big ships or to join in with multi crew. A fighter with a cargo hold of 2-4 can be deployed to make it easier to collect materials and canisters. This would be especially helpful to the installation rescues. Doesn’t have to have weapons.





I’ve put a lot here but it’s very achievable and would make a big impact and make galnet less fluff and more you can do this.







Thanks for reading
