I use L traders in 6.x just because a giant trading ship with that much cargo is cool. I'm very happy they are getting some love to get their performance on par with the M traders, at least for non-highway routes. If the M remains better for highway areas, that's great because it adds depth and purpose for both!
In the live versions 2 times F2 and then use the numbad numbers to rotate the camera and + /- to zoom. With F3 you get the camera of a selected target and the rest accordingly to the first point. In the Beta you only have to press once F2/3 and then use the numpad to navigate the camera
I didn't even know L traders has problem lol. I use a lot of Shuyaku as trader because I hate M traders. They can't ignore a pirate shooting at them. They stop everytime and get destroyed because they stop... L traders are strong enough, can happen when a destroyer pirate shoot it, but happen less. I set the AI to drop a turret and ignore, but they stop all the time and try to flee. Sometimes the ship is 2 km away from the gate, and he turn (directly to the ennemy) and try to reach a station -.-
They are only a very small group of developers of like 20 folks. Priorities I guess... It's impressive how far we have gotten out of this small team and a whole bunch of dedicated modders

Solid feedback, thanks Immi.
That's good to know, I've been avoiding L-class traders for this very reason. Time to re-integrate them into my fleet!
Thank you so much for this (and prior) awesome, in depth, X4 info.
Very cool thank you for your testing.
Thanks for video...
I always used Ls anyway because they were less likely do die to random crap when that mattered.
Nice insight.
For ask someone has been able to capture a XENON ship? I have been in their sectors and by now anithing
Thanks.
Are the 7.0 new sectors accessible in the beta?
yes
sweet
How do you use the camera like that?

How did this take years.. srsly. I remember playing two years ago and avoiding L class traders and miners entirely for inter-system use

Now i know how to win this game
Terran COMBAT engine, not trade engine, the trade engine is a waste of space.
There is no L Combat engine, and there is no L Trade engine.
There are only L All-round Engines and L Travel Engines for L Trader!
