Question: how does one dock with civilian/industrial outposts?
At one time, I played the original Elite as well as the indie/fan-made Oolite... it's been a while since I played, but as I play H64, I'm catching all of the references to the Elite universe. Haven't gotten around to Elite Dangerous though.
Also playing Hutton minimal and I like the random events with pirates and traders. I'm wondering that if you are thinking about adding game types, meaning, game choice #1 being the game as it is currently, and game choices 2 and 3 having random events with pirates and such using dice-roll mechanics to determine escape or battle.
Just a thought. Regardless, the game is awesome as it is!
