I suggest you send another ticket. Other than that, there's not much you can do about it client-side. It may be better to wait a bit longer. In your defence, four days should have been sufficient to receive a reply.

Dual Universe announced Warp Mechanics last month. Along with @le_souriceau of the New Merovia Chronicles and @KurockNotabi of the Dual Universe Historical Society, Outpost Zebra, we talked to prominent members of the Dual Universe Community. These include: 
@majesstic, @Virtual, @Duckimus Maximus, @TheBlacklist and @[BOO] Sylva.
 
You can read 'A Montage of Perspectives' here: https://bit.ly/D-U-Warp  
 
 
 
That's not all, though. le-souriceau went above and beyond. On his website, you'll find the detailed version of the article, including the full questions and replies by all five interviewees. It's definitely a must read if you want to know exactly what the participants think about the warp mechanics.

Greetings Anomolos, 
 
I am a follower of Christ and a gamer as well. I have recently become a patron of Dual Universe. I have been contemplating what to do about an organization to enhance the playing experience. As a Christian it can be difficult dealing with the online world as many do not hold to our core values. I was thinking about staring an org and so I did a quick search first to see what I could find out there. That led me to your post. I would enjoy discussing the possibilities with you. I am a long time player of Emperion Galactic Survival, Space Engineers and No Man's Sky. I have been playing Star Citizen but beleive the best days for them are out in the future somewhere. I am also looking forward to Starbase with anticipation in hopes that will be some good game play.
 
So, let's talk and see if there is a fit.

Biggest thing even done by NMC and not only NMC -- this is collaboration with great guys from Outpost Zebra and DU Historical Society:
 
5 people. 8 questions. 1 warp drive. And NDA...

This was great experience of working with pros of Dual Universe media community, we definitly will be looking to more of this.

If you have been given a ride/rescue and are now capable of providing one to someone else please give back! Many people that need a ride at the start of their gaming experience in DU leave the game once they crashed their first contruct. The purpose of this org has time and time again (over 100 times & counting) helped new players overcome this keeping them interested in the game. If you like DU, show it by helping a new player overcome a game ending experience by offering a ride!

Weekly Update - July 15 - 2020
 
The 822-hour super test (June 11th to July 15th) has finally wrapped up with 23 rescues being made throughout this test. This brings us to 73 for Alpha 3 and 129 rescues overall.
 
-----------
 
I started this test right where I left off on @Rub3n213's ship out in deep space. We traded fuel, parted ways, and I haven’t heard back from them since so rescue 107 is a lock.
 
Alioth's moons have a unique propensity to attract new space fairing players to it like moths to a flame. @sleepydas happened to be one such player that crashed on the moon, luckily @remdawg12 was available to respond and helped them make the needed repairs to their ship and completed rescue 118. Not three days later, @Hostile became another such victim. Once again, remdawg12 responded with scrap for rescue 120.
 
One of the latest features to be added is warp drives. @personality_matrix approached us after their requests to friends had all gone unheeded. After someone had purchased all the warp cells at the market on Jago, the player requested an expedited warp service to deliver them some warp cells. Eyes & Ears quickly met this request by dispatching @Haunty who completed rescue 126 in record time!
 
Finally one of our newer members, @Buck_Rogers, cut their teeth in their first rescue by giving @MRog40 a ride from Alioth to Madis for rescue 129.
 
A big thanks to all the players who made rescues during this test:
 
Welcome to the newest members of the team:
@Assar246 - Rescuer
Buck_Rogers - Pilot, Rescuer

Last month, the topic of in-game advertising took a front and center picture with advertising signs (some, of the grossly huge variety) occupying much of the space near commonly used market entrances. While a great way to get eyeballs, some signs were proving a nuisance to the community. With Beta just over a month away, it became apparent that this issue would only grow if it wasn’t tackled.
 
Eyes & Ears undertook a Lua related project throughout this test. Our goal was to consolidate these in-game advertisements into one construct and present them in a way that was appealing to both the viewers and advertisers. With a minimally viable product now available, we’re getting ready to come forward to the greater community. More details on this will be shared in a dedicated thread, for now though, we are running down the list of organizations for any groups interested in this project. With enough interest, development on this will continue into a somewhat more polished product before we perform our initial launch at Alioths major marketplaces.
 
That aside, it was mentioned in an earlier post that no major projects were going to be delt any progress due to wipes. Well with one month of continuous testing and nothing to do, I decided to initiate work on a small planetary outpost. Now some of you might remember back to Alpha 2, my little spot at the end of Market 1. To say that it was too big to fit any reasonable use case was an understatement. With a tri-large-core design that will serve as a system headquarters for our heavier constructs, a single medium core should serve well for two small constructs.
 
I hope to have multiple outposts spread throughout a system, optimally one on every planet to keep our response time down, but how things will play out remains to be seen.
 
Oh, uh, and apologies for taking most of the rescues. While building this construct, I've just hit a creative dead end. Getting eager for beta I suppose, but more or less for release. More players, more things to do, more places to go. I guess I feel like I'm stuck in a rut in this game, the creative juice is tapped out. Hopefully once things become more, dynamic, maybe I'll get that joy I had back in pre-alpha.
 
So much has changed, and much more is going to change. I hope it's for the best.
 
That's all for now, until next time, fly safe everyone!

Starting a Christian Organization for fellow believers. If you’re an active gamer and sincere believer in Jesus Christ, I’d like to hear from you. This will not be my first time starting a guild for a game (as I’ve been playing PC games exclusively in a competitive setting for 20+ years) but this will be an organization I’m starting from scratch.
 
Feel free to message me here or preferably on Discord at mOG#1711. You should be familiar with comms discipline and avoid profanity if you’re looking to join. Taking the Lord’s name in vain and other forms of casual blasphemy are obviously prohibited. Other than that, there are no real requirements. 
 
Alternatively, if such an organization already exists within Dual Universe, let me know and if there’s not a great turn out from this thread I may end up just putting in an application there.
 
Thanks!

Whether you're new to Dual Universe, or a veteran looking to brush up on their knowledge about the game, we hope you find our new series, 'Tips and Tricks', to be helpful in your journeys.

In today's episode, we'll be looking at Nanocrafting, which helps players construct sub-components for elements, using the game's recipe system.

We'll be featuring lots more great content, including more tips and tricks videos. Be sure to follow us on YouTube, and discuss this video with your fellow Noveans here on our official  forum or Discord! 
 
View episode #1 here:  https://youtu.be/cBuSfShc-Mc

'Read to the End' by @Klorox is a work of literary fiction - and it's online on our website! Click the link here to read it. Don't forget to follow us on Twitter! 
 
 
 
P.S: Both advert spots on our website are currently occupied by the Heimera Trade Xchange. That's one too many (or two if you want). Let us know if you want a spot. It's Quanta free from now until the start of Beta. From Beta onwards, in-game proceeds will go to paying staff and giving incentives. Interested? Let us know right here or on Discord here. 
 
Cheers.
 
 

This should be moved to NDA section, but the problem was that you didn't balance your ship properly. Extra weight (interia) exacerbated the problem.

So! New one, with @Elias Villd, about himself, his unsual org, game potential and lot of interesting talk on Lua (casualy incluing automated killer ships).

It was possible with super-patient help of @KurockNotabi! Thanks! 
 
And we, to compensate little bit of of slacking, doing 2 more. Stay tuned!

Hehe.

Outpost Zebra is back online! Check out our new website and let's talk. With the new formatting and outlay of the platform, we're also introducing some changes. Going forward, individual authors will be allowed and encouraged to post content themselves. Naturally, the staff will offer editing and proof reading services as requested.
 
There are open positions for reporters, contributors and fact-checkers, too. Send us a message via Discord or through the contact form on the website if you're interested in filling any of these roles. 
From now until Beta, advertising on our website is also free. Once Beta starts, the proceeds in Quanta will go to paying the reporters and fact checkers of Outpost Zebra in-game. Talk to us if you want an advertising spot.
 
If you want to share content that's not in English, we're open to the idea. Dual Universe is a diverse place: limiting the platform to one language alone is not our goal. 
 
As always, we're on Twitter, Discord and the Forums. Whether it's stories, news, articles, a friendly conversation or anything Dual Universe related, chat with us sometime.

This is a very interesting idea, I have some questions...
 
This seems a little bit like trading, with Extra Steps?
 
I can envision several use cases for customers (enumerated below) but am struggling to see how this will fit the customer needs. I have only just discovered DU so if I am misunderstanding any mechanics, please correct me.
 
First, I will assume the markets in the ores in question are liquid (buy/sell spread is small, enough buy/sell orders that trading is easy).
1. Let's say I, a potential customer, have just mined a bunch of ore but will not be using it immediately, for one reason or another. I could deposit it in your bank, collect some collateral (I assume this would be in Quanta? in any case, not equal to 100% of the value of the ore) and incur the fees. Or, I could instead sell the ore and pocket the Quanta in my completely secure wallet. I would be risking that the value of ore would change over time, but in return I would not be exposed to any risk from the bank (which I believe others in the thread of outlined), I would not pay bank fees, and I would have the ability to use the Quanta in the intervening period as I saw fit. Once I needed the ore, I would simply buy it from the (liquid) market.
2. On the other hand, maybe I want ore transferred from where I mined it to where I will be using it. I could deposit it in your bank, travel without risk of it getting stolen from me, and then withdraw from another branch. This seems like a good deal for the customer. But if there is aggregate mismatch in supply and demand in these locations, the bank will wind up transporting ore around. And it will not cost me extra to withdraw it in a high-demand location compared to a low-demand location. On the other hand, if I simply sell the ore where I mined it, and then purchase it where I need to use it, any aggregate mismatch in supply and demand should induce a price discrepancy that would incentivize traders to meet the demand. They would be transporting the same amount of ore (in aggregate) as the bank, but without a good deal of the overhead.
 
Things look a little different if we contemplate items with illiquid markets.
1. The first use case is more of a storage facility service. This seems to pretty well match one branch of what you envision building.
2. The second use case is something of a secure courier service. I can certainly see a demand for this too.
 
As others have mentioned, banks may have evolved from institutions that seem similar to what you are describing, but modern banks are redistributors of capital. Mimicing the function of modern banks in DU would be an interesting proposition to try, though I'm a little doubtful it can work in a universe with a fixed amount of currency. I think we're more likely to see redistribution in the downward direction in the form of wealth taxes.

Congratulations to @Lesdecus, who has become a premier player in this Universe.

Introduction

The primary mindset behind our conception is to promote and establish strong bonds through unity and order.
Triumvirate functions like a Brotherhood.
We teach and learn to cooperate in a Tri-force fashion instead of isolated singular units.
 
 
Symbolism
The three colored triangles stand for individual Faction members and the triarchy among our ranks. Their position inside the circle is a reflection of the teamwork required, to support each other. The circle represents the Faction's Unity as a whole. Everyone in line within will find support and sanctuary. Last but not least, the central white triangle reflects the fruits of everyone's labor through unity and cooperation.  
Recruitment
We are looking for people that strive for teamwork and dedication. If you want to be a part of your own small crew then Triumvirate is the right place for you. Here, all new recruits are divided and organized into three manned squads in relation to their aspirations.
Form an application through the Community Portal or join our Discord Server and pm @Armedwithwings directly.
 
 
Choose your Specialization
 
All work within Triumvirate is divided into three specializations.
Members are encouraged to dedicate themselves to work that's related exclusively on their respected profession.
 
 
 Architecture Designer
Builders and Architects of all kinds. Members part of this profession specialize in everything construct related.
From structure designs to room decoration they are responsible for providing the Faction's living and working facilities.
 
Excavation Specialist
People in charge of Ore Prospecting and Resource mining are part of the Excavators.
Through their hard work we create the essentials to operate our Faction. They are the heart and lungs of Triumvirate as without them nothing would be possible.
 
Ship Engineer
Created for ship designers and haulers alike.
The Mechanized Division is in charge of maintaining crafts and run resupply missions. Constantly on the move, there is always something to be done.
 
 
Faction Structure
 
First Echelon - Triumvirate Company
Squad Members - Supervisors
──────────────────
Second Echelon - Triumvirate Officer Party
Commanding Officers - Administrators
──────────────────
Third Echelon - Triumvirate Central Command
Chiefs of Staff - Legionnaires
──────────────────
Senate - Triumvirate High Command
Legates - Triumvirs
──────────────────

 
Tri-Squad Members
Tri-squads are tasked to cooperate united at all times towards a single goal. Triumvirate Brotherhood detachments share the same workspace,living quarters and remain unchangable for their remaining enlistment period. They are charged one vessel and perform duties as a single entity, never divided. Each Tri-squad will be assigned an elected Supervisor. Among other duties, they will be tasked of keeping their squad present at all times  and conveying orders from their superiors.
───────────────────
Commanding Officers
A Commanding Officer will be overseeing one Tri-squad and assign their daily work schedule determined, by either through "job boards"or Administrational orders. The job of a Commanding Officer is to keep a detailed log of his squad's completed assignments and report them to the "Administrator".
─────────────────────────
Administrators
Administrators are individuals in charge of the Faction's needs by coordinating the Brotherhood's workforce/military. Their tasks among others include holding responsibility for two Commanding Officers,regularly updating their designated Platoon's job board and formulating their activity reports. They receive their orders from either the Chiefs of Staff or the Legionnaires.
───────────────────────────────────────────────
Chiefs of Staff
Command of each legion lies in the hands of two Chiefs of Staff along with their Legionnaire. Being the cream of the crop of Triumvirate,these highly skilled individuals hold tremendous authority and equal responsibility. Through their Ranks, a Legionnaire is elected in power though the legion's favor.
────────────────────────────────────────────────
Legates
Generals/Senate along with the Faction Leader are the ones who make the plans to shape the Brotherhood's future. Behind any major decision,a council is organized to determine the best course of action. Each General/Senate party will be held responsible for a Major Faction Asset.
────────────────────────────────────
Triumvirs
The central leadership role of Triumvirate is in the hands of the Faction Leader and two prestigious legates called Triumvirs. These influencial parties can be elected in power through the Senate only once every year

After some work, I present to you the Aether Backstory Part 4: For Blood. Read it over here. I'm currently thinking of ending the series of Aether Backstories at Part 5, to keep in line with what Dual Universe has already laid down. As for the protagonist meeting Sohan, I doubt that's going to happen. I might change my mind in the following week, but all in all, the curtain should be closing for the series. I've enjoyed writing as I always do and I hope you've enjoyed it too. Let me know if you want the Aether to continue with the lore and if not, well, I'll be keeping to the schedule.
