I Tryed out the Sysop Ship in one of my games I had never had time to try this out :( What good is this ship if you can not land on planets check to see the Corps members list and other stuff in the game?
If I im in the wrong ship please let me know, but if am in the right ship how come we cannt land on planets and tally the fights and things at the end of a game. or get to the corps list or see how colonist is on terra and the list goes on of things we can check in the game. This is what we need as sysops.

I personally wouldn't use the Sysop ship in a game I am running. Say you see Player A planet farming sector 1000 (and he knows you saw him) and tomorrow he gets invaded...

The very few times I go into a game I am running I sit in a Merchant Cruiser at Terra. If someone gets me because I got towed, it's no big deal.

There were some big arguements about this in Ygroups. Most players do not like having a "Sysop" or "Ambassador" wandering around loose.

That is the way I have done it up untill this game just logged in the game in a reg. ship and anwsered any questions then quit and let them have fun finding my ship and killing me after extern. :)

I never leave sector one! At the end of a close game I had to go in to tedit and check all the planets and stuff to see who the winner was. this was a pain. So the new game I setup the sysop ship to make it easier, and I never leave sector 1 but I can'nt look at anything when the game is over :( so what good is this ship ?

If there is a easier way of checking who has the most stuff at the end of a game please let me know Thanks

Standard Sysop Issued Ship is called a Pod.

Visit slbbs.com port 2002 for a rip roaring game of TW where you also have to battle the Klingons, Romulans, Orians and the Borg.

I scroll thru the list of planets to see what is on the planets (since most resources will be located on the planets anyway.
After that then i'll hop in my sysop ship and go visit sectors.
Since you can have multiple admin connections at once, you can do both at the same time :)

There is a better way , I've seen it ..
Someone made a zoc script to go throught the work of counting fighters , planets and $$ . for sysop to run on a completed game to
help find game winners.
I dont know who wrote it or where to find it .. I didnt have zoc at the time and didnt download it.
But if he/she reads this .. please post it here for sysops to use.
