    Monday Megathread - your weekly "dumb question" thread

    Posted: 08 Mar 2021 07:12 AM PST

    Welcome to Monday and a new question megathread!

    Post all the questions you may have about anything STO-related. PC? Console? Everyone's welcome to post their questions here.

    A few late entries were added to last weeks thread and understandably unanswered. I'll include them below.

    Stay safe out there and happy flying.

    Tailor Colour Guide for the Colour Blind

    Posted: 08 Mar 2021 03:10 AM PST

    About a year ago, I made this guide to help colour blind players navigate the tailor colour palettes. Thought it might be worth reposting to make it a little easier to find for anyone who might benefit from it! :D

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    A while ago, I saw someone asking if there were any guides of the game's colour palettes for colour blind people. As nothing like that seems to exist, I decided to have my best go at making some. They're not perfect by any means and there's at least one more palette that I have not made a guide for due to the colours not being divided into rows making it very difficult to label clearly, but I hope they're still useful to some people. Each guide has a name but they're just titles I have made up based on when each palette might be used. You can cross reference the number of rows and columns with a palette in-game to make sure you're looking at the relevant guide. If anything is unclear or you have any questions, please feel free to ask and I apologise if any of the links do not work or there are any errors as I have never attempted something like this before. Happy space Barbie-ing! :)

    Guide 7 'Ship' - https://i.redd.it/pdik2nzwj7r41.png

    (If you're looking for which colours to use for a specific uniform to get the 'canon' look, there are plenty of good guides available on the wiki!)

    Warp FX

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 11:13 PM PST

    You know what would be a nice Quality of Life add on? The option to choose what type of Warp Effect you would like for your toon. You can choose one of three options: Kelvin, DSC or TNG. All three have very distinct visuals and sounds so why not just add the Kelvin Warp and let us pick what we want to use.Base game toons are stuck with TNG Warp, DSC Fed toon has its own warp style, but we don't have Kelvin Warp. I also wish DSC Klingons get DSC Warp effect. It would be fitting.

    E'genn doesn´t spawn in "Surface Tension"

    Posted: 08 Mar 2021 07:19 AM PST

    This has happened to me the second time now. In "Surface Tension" on Earth spacedock, after saving Admiral Quinn, one of the Starfleet personell is supposed to reveal himself as a undine, prompting the boss fight. However, both when i leveled up my Klingon recruit and now with my new toon, he simply didn´t spawn, soft-locking the mission and forcing me play the whole ESD section again.

    Is this another case of "if you skip the cutscene too fast the game can´t catch up"? If yes, it´s really dumb. If not, it´s still really dumb.

    Having a challenge that involves getting kills after cloaked but not actually fixing the cloak bug is aggravating.

    Posted: 07 Mar 2021 03:07 PM PST

    I thought it was annoying that I have to chase people all over the map while they crawfish away from my melee attacks...but at least that isn't game breaking.

    Trying to get 2500 kills using a skill that breaks every other time I use it is insanity.

    Phaser quad canons

    Posted: 08 Mar 2021 09:47 AM PST

    Hello all I recently got my hands on the phaser quad canons and was curious if they're still viable. They are currently mk XV epic and deal 1,718 phaser damage (2,061.7 dps) while my pulse phaser dual heavies of the same rarity deal 2,267.2 phaser damage (1,813.8 dps). Do the quad canons just do damage differently or what? I figured they were just stronger.

    Can anyone think of a good reason why Promo/Lockbox/Lobi/Phoenix ship consoles can't be account-bound?

    Posted: 08 Mar 2021 09:30 AM PST

    I was just thinking of this... I appreciate that there can be technical hurdles to suddenly allowing the whole ship to be an account unlock (i.e. it's easily done to say "from now on, all Lobi ships are account unlocks" but harder to determine everyone who's ever bought a lobi ship and make sure they get the corresponding account unlock) but I wonder: why can't their unique consoles be account bound? Character-bound consoles make sense for reclaimable ships, since you can simply reclaim the ship on every character, but for lockbox ships like the Vengeance with its Broadside Emitters or the Atlas with DPRM, why not allow us to at least move the console around via account bank? Seems like a good tradeoff between improving the player experience without harming the sales of lockboxes and promo boxes.

    As a note, I'd pay a one-time fee to allow that...

    Space battle tactics?

    Posted: 08 Mar 2021 08:17 AM PST

    Can anyone recommend any posts or articles with recommendations for space battle tactics? I've seen brief mentions of things like flying alongside a target so beam arrays fore and aft can fire broadside at it. I just wondered if there are any posts dedicated to effective combat styles for other ship classes and weapon configurations.

    I've seens lots of materials on how to fit a ship. Now I'm looking for guidance on how to use a ship once it's fitted.
