Sedina H-5 station

Sep 04, 2014 J37T3R link
The Sedina H-5 racing tube is built around a space station. Except the alleged station is just a prop, unable to be entered. Wouldn't it be cool if it had a purpose? Like as some sort of racing central, or perhaps... a prize?

I'm thinking this: make the station into a conquerable station, but acquired by racing instead of combat. Get the top time on its track, win the station. To keep it competitive the time required to take the station should degrade over time, so the owner would have to maintain their record or risk losing the station.

I'm not entirely sure what the rewards should be, I'll leave that open to further suggestion. All I can think of atm is perhaps if one of the upcoming dents is a speedy variant, put some of the manufacturing missions here.

+1 to the many times over suggested activation of the H5 station.

Did they ever fix the tube time hacks?

+1 to every time this is suggested.

gravy: add a dozen or so camera views along the track, displayed if you enter the bar, so you can watch the action.

race tube hack? I need to look this up, I'm sure I posted one of the lowest possible times in these tubes :)

Ever seen a strike force try to enter a race tube? It would be an entirely useless system to have a useful station in. Its uit space before the border turrets.

a strike force chase you thru a tube? xD THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!!!
maybe a race music theme could play when that happens.

Why does it need to have strike forces?

The SF trying to chase anyone in a tube would be a laughable fail for the SF. If you want to see what I mean: get a strike force to chase you into the inner structural part of any station and you will see how the seekers clip (or slam face first) into the walls, and the explosives-packed hulls take out a bunch of their vult wingates.

Glad to see there's support, now for the real question: what would make the station actually worth getting and racing over?

Maybe a type of super race ship, even better than the ssuperlight can be offered there.

Let's just start with something simple. Make it dockable and let people store things there. Let them home and sell ec-89 and free power cells.

We can worry about what will draw more usage later. The first stage is a working docking bay.

+1, one more station would be nice. Doesn't even have to be fully functional. Maybe a few unique missions or just a place to store stuff.
