No advertizing. It's not nice.

Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Extremely tacky, let's not. But Aurora badly needs a better organized wiki with more information.

Is there a time limit for salvaging? I just got two salvagers to the wreck of that 100,000 ton ship I mentioned a while back. They found...jack squat. No intel, no tech, not even minerals. The wreck of the ship that was rammed provided similar disappointment. What a rip  >:(

Honestly, this thread is my first go-to for Aurora information. It seems to be more active and up-to-date than the entire Aurora board/wiki combined  :P

Your salvagers did have cargo bays correct?

Sounds like the ships were disintigrated. Which is an interesting concept.

Though given it is made by the same people who believe that a reasonable "Interface" is optional then yeah... it could be your lack of cargo bays.

Yep. Salvage ships need cargo to carry away the things they salvage, else you get nothing at all.

Guess I'll just have to wait for the next 100,000 ton wreck to come my way xD

I wonder... can you have cargo ships in the same task group as the salvagers and have the cargo ships load the salvaged components and materials? I'll have to test that.

Apparently Aurora is more like Dwarf Fortress than we thought  ;D

Aurora is a game. Games violate the laws of conservation all the time. How else do you think Mario can hurl fireballs for no reason? Harry Potter can make things float by waving a piece of wood at them.

I don't get why you're so surprised. He salvaged a wreck but had nowhere to store the stuff so it was ejected and lost, no longer in a nice convenient wreck.

Yes, yes you can - which is good, since building a fleet of salvage ships is way more expensive than just one salvager leading a dozen cargo ships.
