Unfortunately it is very hard for a new pilot to make it anywhere in this game, considering Subzero22 has bought every remaining hanger for sale .

That shouldn't be possible... without cheating...

That is a relief, but look for yourself. There's not a single empty hanger left =/

I haven't played for a bit online, my recommendation would be PK them out of clones... I don't know of any admin commands that would allow for forcing them to give up the hangars.

Hammer has the rent system turned off, otherwise, the hangars should constantly be draining its reserve of money.
Which is good for me, considering last i checked, i still had like 200 devs that would fetch a pretty penny
It may be possible to pull the pilot passwords out of the save file, someone could login as him and sell any hangar he hasent installed any machinery or has any stock in

If so, I ask him to give up a couple of hangers so others can play. Just saying. It's only reasonable. Otherwise.....well, there are ways. I just don't want to have to deal with it. So.....Subzero22? What do you say? Hammer

Hello flyers! Update on my shitty cable service dropping out. I keep losing the modem. Finally made some progress today. The cable repair guy came, and changed all the ends on my cable. Then, at my insistence, climbed up the telephone pole, to find that the squirrels had chewed all sorts of holes in the cable line out at the pole. So he had to run new cable from the pole to my house. Yeah!!! Finally, some action! I think now, my brand new DOCSIS 3 protocol Motorola modem will finally get a good signal and stop dropping out. I can't guarantee that the game won't crash, but at least it will stop having server interruptions at my end. Speed and Greed on Titan! Hammer

Searching every hangar on Titan would take a few hours, that would be a pain. 2. Breaking a password out would be unessacary, though the admin password program could be used to do that, I've never tested it, the only thing Hammer would need to do is: stop MSGC / stop the game / I don't remember exactly but, either load the game like a saved single player game and then type in the users log in name, or... go to Options / disable Require Password / then load the game as a dedicated server saved game and and enter the flyer's name. 3. Instead of checking every single hangar / sell all of the hangars and donate the money to the two primary Moth Factories... If the penalty is steep enough people won't try to buy every hangar. Though giving them a few days to comply would be common courtesy.

A little co-operation goes a long way. Just saying. Hammer Hammer

I see, I didn't think about retiring the flyer.

Subzero22's hangers are still there, but 2 hangars are available in alpha crater. I've had this game for a decade now and never played online 'til now. Started up a sprats biz, blasted a few laz/klamp patrol ships, hopefully didn't cause any permanent damage The 10fps is a bit hard to get used to, but it pretty much disappeared from my perception after about an hour. Also, Comodo Firewall simply refused to let Hardwarw through, so I had to disable it to get it to work. Thanks Hammer, for keeping this up for this long...approaching day 10000... -Digger

Hammer will probably need to start a new game soon anyway.
I have/had 4 hangars, i think hammer should post a list of rules, and hangar limit should be one of them.
I havent played in a few months. But i know not to leave thugs in moths since they are prone to being stolen...
I think rent and payroll is nice, but it should only kick in when a player has too many hangars or thugs

True you need a small fortune to maintain them and when you first start out it takes all your money, if it could be programed to only start when you have 2 or 3 hangars and/or 3 or 4 thugs that would help players starting out.
