We updated the billboards so that they now show all characters that have a bounty on them, not just the highest one. They also have new advertisments ( no longer that damn can of Quafe ). If any of you notices a bug with them, like pictures not showing etc, pls let us know...

on TQ I've noticed the Billboards have a ticker running down the bottem that sometimes reads "this space for rent" or something similar. Will players and their corps ever be able to actually rent ad space on billboards?

Thanks for that.
On a related note, any idea when it will be possible to rent space on billboards - maybe per section of space?
I'm thinking of how handy it would be to post notices asking for info, or player-placed bounties and wanted lists, or even corp adverts.
ISTR being able to 'rent' billboard space was mentioned a while ago - I guess it's been shelved for more important fixes?
Cheers, TOM

This is a move in the direction of rented billboards. We will create the content for them for now. Keep it in line with the unfolding storyline, but yes renting shouldn't bee so hard if this system proves succesful. The system is such that we don't need to update the client to update the billboards. When it says "this space for rent" that means that there is an error in reading the news.

Would it too be possible for people to make their own billboards and deploy them?
For example, the Stain Alliance could put one at the gate leading to DSS warning people that they are entering alliance territory, and that they should 'read the news'. Upon reading the news they would get some general information about the alliance and a set of rules, and what will happen to them if we ask them to leave and they resist, or if they break some rules.
It would be nice if they retained their missile defense systems as well (we choose what kind of missiles to load into them, and refill them as neccessary)
Taken from the May 29th 2003 Devchat at EveGate . <Muaddid> Q: When will sentry gun and station and similar construction pods be introduced on the market? <Hellmar> we have various player owned entities already implemented. Sentry guns, power/shield generators, field repair mini-stations, mobile refineries. We are still working out the last tidbits of how they can be over taken, what is the penalty of having a sentry gun kill a n00b etc. and we have been a bit busy with plugging the holes that people have found.I would say that you'd start to see these items on the market in about 2-3 weeks, very expensive to begin with |
