[QUOTE="FionaSmythe, post: 9339432, member: 6874389"] [SPOILER]Full-ish restoration, though a lot of people are opting for different modes of FTL travel now, since the Drift is no longer considered the default option. This is having some knock-on effects in manufacturing and economic concerns. Triune resolutely refuses to comment her code, so it's unclear whether the patch-yanking is a feature or a bug. I believe it's still happening, but I can't find a specific quote about it in my quick skimming of the books. [S]The funny thing about Drift Lanes is that you can enter or leave them at any point along their length. It's not a one-to-one correlation between Location In Real Space and Location In Drift Space, but it's a lot less random than the association between zones normally is. [/S] (I just looked it up in Ports of Call and this part isn't true; you can [I]leave[/I] at any point along the length but you'll end up in a random point in the Drift. You can park your ship [I]inside[/I] the Drift Lane and stay in the same spot, so it is a lot easier to navigate and for other ships in the same lane to find you.) So not only are the political and trade relationships of every faction being shaken up due to unprecedented transport logistics, it's now super easy to ambush specific vessels in the Drift if you know they're travelling on a particular lane. The Drift Crisis book describes it as "a new golden age of piracy". [/SPOILER] [/QUOTE]
