Remove Teal fog in Sedina H9

Apr 15, 2017 Luxen link
The fog makes the thunderdome a bit hard to play in, since it seems many pilots suffer lag in. Can we have the fog removed so TeamDX can be hosted there more often?

Have you tried telling everyone to lower their graphical settings?

Well, the Fog also makes it difficult to navigate through the sector, or to see who is in the sector. Given the fog was added during the first Team Deathmatch event last year, I don't think it was intended to be a permanent fixture, and I am hoping it can be removed for now so TeamDX can use the sector again.

Though, yes, for the lag, that may help.

I support! Most importantly, you cannot see and appreciate the Tie-fighter anymore.

Fuck you all!!! Yea, whatever...it has run its course. Raybondo made my fucking day when he did this. It was fun while it lasted.

I agree, it was insanely awesome when it happened, but now its kinda in the way. I really debated with myself whether i wanted it removed or not before finally deciding to hit that submit topic button.

Oh, and why are ion storms blue? Ion weapons tend to be red.

As far as I have understood ions aren't homogenic 'things', as they are positively/negatively charged atoms or molecules. So you can have Serco or Itani molecules for example that are both ions and at the same time substantially different in nature.

Warlike Serco molecules are a perfect fit for weapons' manufacturing while the meditative, floaty ghosts of deceased Itani miners typically haunt asteroid sectors where they used to dwell when still alive.

^--that was wonderful.

-1 the point of the fogs is to make navigation difficult and limit visibility.

VO has over 7000 different sectors...and I believe Incarnate intends for there to be more fogs and storms.

I would suggest moving the venue instead.

PaKettle, that teal fog was made per request a year ago - it wasnt an intended feature of the sector (or, I really really doubt it was). It was for fun, but the fun is over, lets get our thunderdome back.

+1, but can't we have something almost like that but in a different sector? or would that be too hard?

I don't know what the current state is, but in the past there have been times when two instances of that sector existed, one in H-8 and one in H-9. So maybe we could get both a fogged and unfogged version.

Hopefully this is something people still want. I just removed the fog in Sedina H9.

Glad it's helpful. I had tried to do it back when this was requested, but if I recall there was a bug that prevented the fog update from being written to the database. I put that on the list to be fixed, and apparently it was at some point, but I don't think it was ticketed properly, and I never heard about it being fixed, so.. anyway.. now it works. Yay.
