Right click the name on the D-scan and pull up the 'info' window, of course.


I meant pilots not flying...... Just from memory (I kinda' wanna fly my cheetah now..... Thanks)

Market Window.

ISIS.

Pick either. Or both.

I do believe that there's a number of Gal net sites accessible to baseliners that will give that information as well.

I want to paint my ship Periwinkle.

In this day and age, information is readily available for whoever wishes to access it. Appeal to ignorance is even more deplorable than it was previously.

Though there are still information that does not circulate among the general public.

Still no excuse for a veteran to not know what certain ships can or cannot do. Information's everywhere now. Not knowing where to look is the hallmark of a new pilot, but they should, in due time, know exactly where to look.

Remember that there's still a data repository you can access on Galnet without needing to use the Neocom.

ISIS is supposed to help sort that out, though new pilots still occasionally need to be reminded that the info-tab is not window dressing.

What the devil are you talking about?

ISIS stands for The Interbus Ship Identification System, implemented earlier this year.

Good point, I keep forgetting about that thing. And what's "edgy" about that?

Arkoth 24 had been trying to push his half-baked Nanoblack thingy and when challenged about his stance, goes 'Oh, I don't care'.

You can check it out from his recent posts.

Yes, I called him out on that.

what's the deal with that guy anyway? Is nanoblack some sort of hivemind or something? Or is it just a cult?

I switch between tasks very fast. It's easy when you are wearing a Galnet-connection capable headset that you can control by thinking about it and waving your arms around

No, it's not multitasking!

It seems to be some sort of nanite infestation version of Sansha's Nation with, ah, necromantic overtones? He talks about death like some form of salvation, and he does more or less look the part.

I've been trying to think what the origins might be, and, given the name, the best I've come up with is that it's a rogue prototype for high-end shoe polish.

"Tired of your footwear losing its sparkle? Try Nanoblack (TM)! Our patented self-repairing Sapientech (TM) nanite coating will keep your shoes shining for a decade, or your money back!"

... that sort of thing.

He does seem to like black leather, so....

If it's a real thing, it only seems to have the one (capsuleer) host at the moment, so if you find yourself looking at his frozen corpse, it might be a good idea to just vaporize it to be on the safe side.

If you find yourself dealing with his leather goods, it might be a good idea to vaporize those, too.
