Npc questions

Are all npc actions pre-planned? if so how come when i created a base ships where docking with it and leaving. Why do some kishirot ransports use jump holes when they are carrying luxury food and the jump hole is 70 k away but the gate is 2k away? Another question is has anyone seen an outcast in the jersey debris field? I chased one from the texas jumphole alll the way to colorado through the badlands and sun coronaes and finally through debris fields

>>Are all npc actions pre-planned?

I suppose to a certain extent they are. They definitely respond to your reputation. Neutral NPC's will turn hostile if one of their allies shows up and is hostile. Sometimes causes a (deadly) cascade effect.

>>if so how come when i created a base ships where docking with it and leaving.

Huh?


>>Why do some kishirot ransports use jump holes when they are carrying luxury food and the jump hole is 70 k away but the gate is 2k away?

A. The other side of the jumphole is closer to their destination.
B. They are stupid.

You pick.

Can't recall. If I see one I'll let you know.

I know someone answered it but i might have different (funny) stuff,

Yes




if so how come when i created a base ships where docking with it and leaving.
I think i know what he's talking about. That's also scripted.



Why do some kishirot ransports use jump holes when they are carrying luxury food and the jump hole is 70 k away but the gate is 2k away?
We like to pretend two things. 1. Some of the shipments are not so legal.
2. Pilots are stupid or smart.



Another question is has anyone seen an outcast in the jersey debris field?
Once. Got blown up at site (i was a noob). But not since then, prolly a script bug.
