Bounty Info

Oct 16, 2005 Shapenaji link
So how about giving some more info about the bounty collected.

It would be very cool (and useful for research purposes) if the ship/layouts of the 2 pilots were published.

Ex:

A Standoff between MysticRogue's Corvus Marauder, equipped with dual sunflares and a TPG issue phase blaster, and Unknown Player Node's IDF Valkyrie, equipped with Tri-Sunflares, culminated in MysticRogue collecting the 1c bounty.

It would make interesting reading, and give new players an idea for the wealth of ships and layouts that established players use.

how many new players do you think actually read that?
Oct 16, 2005 Shapenaji link

How many people even know it's there?

Oh, and while we're at it, add in a date/time thing too so we can distinguish between old and new headlines. I scrolled down to the beginning of the news and found bounties from when the bounty system first appeared.

Add it to the "non-essential things" idea queue, I guess.

Well, I can't imagine this takes much code to implement.

Considering the high number of times this sort of thing has been asked for, I bet it'll be in Ray's station UI redux. Ya know, for Christmas. :P

True, 10 lines at most. These are simple lines to, not much thought and math and stuff...there can be some real complex codes in these games haha......
