Title: Losing coin
Post by: fuin996 on August 11, 2023, 12:48:55 pm
hi newb here, just started playing recently on normal/oddity, currently lvl 18, just noticed the combat feed function, toggled it and I noticed that im losing coins at almost every loading space, biggest loss I had at one instance was 90 coins and I need every bit since im saving up for the core city house. Is this a feature? bug? some kind of rng shenanigans?

 help

Does it happen on every zone transition?

Looks like you are using the train? It costs money, and you are told so in the dialogue.

Yep, looks like he was using a train while paying for a proper ticket. Not a bug indeed. Also, certain boat routes also cost similar sums, per trip.

For the sake of completeness, though: there is a certain hacker in the game which, if you've done certain things right for him - will provide forged train tickets, which remove this particular expense altogether. And he'll regularly have more of 'em for a very token price, iirc. However, he's plenty hard to even ever meet, and hard to deal with, and his forged tickets come with a small chance to be detected as forgery (couple percent chance or so) every time one is used - and if it ever happens, then iirc one won't be able to use trains ever again. So his forged tickets are not really worth it, IMO. At least one other thing that guy does, though - is really dope, so you may end up using his tickets as well if you go work for him for other thing(s) he provides. Potential profit may end up being many hundreds coins outta using these forged tickets, if you're lucky enough. YMMV.

Phreak is well-known and I don't think the OP still cares about this a month later.

OP may well not care, yes, but some guy few years in the future may well care when he'll find this topic via some search engine. And some guys prefer no spoilers. So, yeah. Who knows.
