Sooo, here I am I get a guy all packed up and ready to go in Firelight to make the trip to Sarsfield.


To my surprise I can not go to Sarsfield from Firelight, but then again I trusted my senses and rechecked the geography of Evan and I was right.

Sam you'll need to correct the geography map of Evan as it clearly shows a road going from Firelight to Sarsfield. It also shows the Badlands TS road goes to Texan before you are allowed to go to Sarsfield.

Guess I'll have to wait a few days to head out to Sarsfield. :(

Awesome job. Ya caught me off guard though Sam. I sent two scouts up north to grab a few crews to bring back, expecting Sarsfield not to open til the end of the week.

Any chance we can get the Sarsfield Gangs to appear on the gang browse page?

What he said!
The map under (gameplay / map) shows no road between FL and Sarsfield.....

This map from the wiki shows travel routes, but there's no direct route from Firelight to Sarsfield.

Not really sure which map you're looking at; I don't see any other map that shows routes.

Wiki smiki,

Click Game Info, then Geography

Unless someone was playing connect the dots(towns), those are roads I see.


Did not cross my mind the wiki was more accurate than the main site.. :p

I stand corrected sir - that map does indeed show routes as you stated.

In defense, however, I must say that I've never seen that map before!

I think what most people were looking at was the map under Gameplay. I offered the wiki reference because that's the only one I knew of that showed routes.

So yes, that map should be updated.

I don't know whether or not this change was intended - also getting the new damage reports on concussion hits to crew.

That was intended, yes.

We'll probably add a FK->SF route at some stage. In my defence, the map you're looking at under Game Info / Geography was made in about June 2005! One of the very first things I did, before even starting work on the coding.

Will we see lower top speeds in the vehicles with the lower gear ratios?

Just had a travel encounter on "Road to Gateway." You know that big hill in the curve? Two pirates started at the bottom - me at the curve. I popped up the slight grade and was gone - the Black Rock proceeded to take the hill *and climb it* in no time... Went from 16mph at the bottom to 20 by the time it crawled to the top... Very cool!

Yes, by about 15%

OK, so you reckon it fixes the problem as intended?

Yes, Sam, I do. By the time he got to the top I was almost 250m away, so he only accelerated ONCE over 20, then slowed to let me escape, so I don't know how his acceleration would have been after that.

But again, yes, the Landrunner was able to steadily climb while accelerating slightly as opposed to just stalling out.
