Solaris / [CLASSIFIED] Sanctioned Reciprocity of Honour and Silence

« Last post by Darius on June 30, 2025, 09:27:03 am »

CLASSIFIED COMMUNIQUÉ — YAMATAN SHOGUNATE

Encoding: Neural-Silk Cipher (Grade 7) 
To: Archon Primarus Sarshar, Combine Apex Council
From: Office of the Ochre Mandate
Via: High Kensei's Evenfall Assembly (Seal: 003-Kokuyō)


Subject: Sanctioned Reciprocity of Honour and Silence 
Directive Code: Ink-Eagle / Orchid Path

"When the surface trembles, the roots must remain still." 
— Treatise of Kurokawa, Vol. VI

Archon Sarshar,

The High Kensei acknowledges and reflects upon the Combine’s formal request for expanded shroudborne coordination in the Sulsian proximity. Heavy is the weight of your appeal, and the Office has considered this such as we would the eye of an astral storm.

It is the judgement of the Shogunate that:

• The Republique’s anarchistic zeal threatens sacred boundaries of order; 
• The Commonwealth’s commercial hunger lays roads without shrines.
• And yet, the path of visible entanglement leads to turmoil, not redress.

After solemn invocation of precedent and the resonance of past obligations, the Yamatan Union, under Orchid Path conditions, will instead undertake vigilant silence.

It has been mandated thus:

1. Task Group Shigure will be deployed to neutral corridors near Sulsian space, under the pretext of pilgrimage observance; 
2. Union sensors will passively relay spatial harmonics to Combine observers under encrypted mutual silence.
3. Shogunate forces will interdict Commonwealth or Jacobine-aligned shipping operating outside registry in Sulsian proximity; 
4. The Union will maintain silence unless spoken to, and undertake action only when deemed necessary. The Union shall raise no banners —but presence will remain, should the balance tilt.


Understand: 
This is not alliance, nor admission, nor endorsement,
nor refusal of sympathy.
This is discipline—of action, of tone, of the blade remaining sheathed.

May order endure,
—Office of the Ochre Mandate 
Kensei Seal #003-Kokuyō

Back then it was set as command line flags, however in modern FSO builds this settings has been moved to the in-game settings available under F2 -> F3.

How do I enable the 3D schockwave? Or the nicer warp-oput effects?

I swear, if  Ididnt' have to breathe every day, I'd forget how to do that.

As always, the quality is amazing and the attention to detail is breathtaking on your end. The Sixth Seal 2 will surely benefit from the PVN variant

FreeSpace Discussion / Re: Was "Capture my Target" ever useful for anything?

« Last post by 0rph3u5 on June 30, 2025, 01:02:16 am »

It is useful if you want to make mission concept without a single fixed outcome, e.g. a cargo raid where you have to weight whocj cargo to steal

On a designer side such mission get complex fast because you have to account for new ways for players to break things

I plan to use it in future
