Linked nodes. How to?
« on: January 09, 2012, 06:41:31 am »
Sorry to ask a stupid question but so far i couldn't link any consciusness nodes to my town.
Can some one tell me how to do it?
So far i could liberate them from the monster that guards that sector/node/square on the map but thats it.
Thanks in advance.

It used to be done from the strategic interface, but that was removed. So right now... I don't think there's a way to do it?

Right, no way to do that right now.

Edit: and actually, linking nodes may ultimately not be one of the things that's done at all, we'll see.  It depends on whether the new mission/settlement/etc system calls for that kind of outside-the-settlement "capturable".

Reminds me, will consciousness shards even stay in the game?

Probably :)  The pinata effect of killing monsters is too cool to not have it in some form, and thus finding some use for the shards is worthwhile.  I have some in mind.

The only monsters that currently drop shards are bosses, regular enemies do the same with health drops. Also you should randomize the initial orientation of these magnetic items, that way they look more like an explosion of stuff.
