You do have to get of your bike to retrieve stuff in the harvesters so might just as well get used to getting off your bike to do things






Not anymore. When they first put out vehicles you could not really operate a harvester froma bike, but somewhere along the line it changed. You can do anything you want to with a harvester, including redeeding it without dismounting your vehicle. Maybe this is a bug, but it is the way the game is working now.

Yeah- I dont get it either. It doesn't seem to be resulting from number of posts or date account created.

Always use your Waypoint Monitor in place of the Onscreen Waypoint Arrows. Just go to your Options screen (CTRL-O) and select Interface and then check the Use Waypoint Monitor and uncheck the Show Arrrows to Waypoints Onscreen.





Actually, to clear things up, it's under the Misc tab, not Interface.


As for my tip, the /mailsave command will save your mail into a folder in your install directory.

Ijust found this out yesterday (O I felt like a newb, I know). If you right click anything it leaves the radial menu up, instead of having to hold the left mouse buttendown. I found it handdy anyways.

Nice tip about /mailsave. Thanks wookieelove. I can finally clean out my mailbox now that I've got a way to archive it. Aside from the old fashioned pen and paper, of course.

Oculus, I used "Luuke" because it can't be used as a player name (I think), so I don't have to worry about some poor fella being spammed by people trying out my example. Consider it the "555-XXXX" number you always see in films.







Q3, sir. I would not be surprised, if there is a Luuke out there....Since I've seen "Luke", "Leia", "Leiaa", "Lukee", "San Holo", "Hans Olo", "H'an S'olo"......you get the drift.



But I could not be named RK-31, nor have my PA be "31'st Wrecking Crew"....grrr *grin*

indeed, what constitutes a community vet? under my username it saysi am one. perhaps it only works on any new posts. guess this will serve as a test.

for those that are looking, it's listed under the Options menu on the right.

Awesome feature!!!


Remember everyone, this is CASE SENSITIVE - /tell Starsider.Venxen works, /tell starsider.Venxen does not work.


Not sure if the toon's name is sensitive yet, but the server is for sure.
