Help with finding secret shipyard

[ValenL]

Hi there,

first off I am enjoying playing the mod and I have an eye out to destroy those dam Yaki's and there dam warhawks... However I don't have ships to take them on. One of my flower farms was attacked by a Yaki Raven and 2 warhawks so I sent 2 Centaur's to deal with them and well the battle was swift and quick and Yaki took them out quick!

So I went on search of these Shipyards but with no luck! I have found some... One in Affluence which has the Evader fighter and frigate and the giant mobile fortress and one in Renewed Success which has much of same minus the fortress. But I am unable to find with the Spectre are hiding there shipyard at.

I went to the "So what have you found out there?" thread and search areas people had posted like the 2 Unknown sectors off Unholy Descent and I looked for a West gate at Rhy's Vision but didnt find one.

Anyone able to let me know were I can find these sectors at?

Also I started the Trader Game if that makes a difference?

Edit: I keep finding these shipyards named Marche de l'occasion but they are all empty do I have a bad installation?

There are quite a lot of questions in your post. Might be better to create one topic per question. ;)
However, I am glad you like the Mod.

Regarding the famous Spectre's sectors, you might better fly South-East. :)

"Marche de l'occasion" is in french... Strange as the Mod is fully translated. Can you please better describe what is the issue in another thread please.

Thx

Just to save you some possible confusion, when you do find the Spectre's sectors, they are labeled as one of the main race's sectors. They just have different factories then anyone else. I had already found their sectors but kept on looking for another week because I was looking for a sector owned by the Spectre. I finally stumbled onto a post which stated that they don't actually exist or own sectors. Their factories just exist under another race's name. As for the shipyards, I have the same thing. Only good for repairs, selling ships and BBS messages as far as I can tell

You can very well trade with them. ;)

Are they supposed to sell ships? When I first started the game, I went to a lot of them looking for clues and information, but I have never seen a ship for sale. After I started capping ships, I sold them there thinking maybe they needed blueprints or actual ships for resale but that didn't do anything either. And it's the same in my installation, the shipyards are labeled Marche de l'occasion. Does that mean Walk of Opportunity, or something close to that?

Is the relevant AL Plugin "ON"?

If yes, some BBS will offer you different kind of ships in different shapes at random. ;)

I'm not sure which one is the relevant Plugin, but all my NH AL's are set to yes, except the Yaki Presence and ISF Presence, and I'm not even sure what they are for. If it's a bbs message we are looking for, that could be part of the problem. Usually when I dock at one of the Marche de l'occasion's, there are no bbs messages. As with any station I wait around for a few minutes, and then some bbs messages start to appear, or change, but I do not recall any ships being offered to me. I will check this out again in the near future. I don't suppose I could get you to check out the thread I started about the khaak sectors could I?
Thanks Phlt
