| If I dont have a political, is restricted Personal knowledge specific to individual positions? If so, can it be transferred between them? And, I expect this is unlikely... If a political has been 'killed', do any of the formerly-owned positions still 'Know' the data? | |||||||||||||

If the political hasn't been shot during an invasion you could always claim that he faked its own death... and went into retreat or so... That would solve the issue of the polticial.. Or you can work around and claim its the son or an close personal friend... But in both cases its an SA and thats open for discussions. Sjaak | |||||||||||||

| If you learn restricted information while you don't have a political, the knowledge goes to your aff's archive... not sure what happens if you're IND Dan | |||||||||||||

| Soo... I'm seeded to an AFF, any restricted knowledge that I dont want shared... Like the location of that hidden cove that would make a good pirate harbour... Is automatically shared with my AFF? B****R | |||||||||||||

| Knowledge is stored against your account, you can us the aff info but can not transfer yours/ receive stuff due to no political | |||||||||||||

| Thanks David. So... I must admit to being still a bit confused. A few more questions for whenever you find the time, nothing I need to know urgently. Say I acquired a player-owned position in a restricted location, but I dont have a political. The knowledge of that location definitely wouldn't be passed to the 'parent AFF'? If that position left the secret location, could it re-enter it? Could any other positions under the same order-editor account enter it? Could any positions under the same KJC account enter it? Finally - if a political position is created, I assume it HAS to belong to the legit affiliation? A 'PIR' political would be nice, but pointless if all the other politicals in the affiliation can see it on their weekly printout. Failing that - Two politicals, or two accounts; one with a political one without, are not allowed, are they? JJ | |||||||||||||

being player owned only means the politicals can not see it. You can still use AFF info.
Info can only be passed to the aff via a politial order
if the affiliation has the information. You can be at a location via another players info - ie the aff does not know and you have been given a position by a player with the information. There is no way to give you this info without a political.
Information is acquired on SBs and planets by seeing them. So that goes to your personal information, if you scan them. However system information is only acquired by research projects or other players giving it to you.
KJC account is not the same as phoenix account, which is more of a pointer to a creation of a starter turn. KJC accounts are just attached for charging. If you are talking about a knowing about a planet then all positions 'attached' to your starter ship will know about it. If you have lots of starter ships then they will not have the info.
All politicals are shown as the affiliation, they _could_ be flagged pirate but they should not be. Only player owned positions can be pirates, and player owned positions are not shown on the other politicals printouts |
