Does Awakening have JTLS?

[JoeHawkins]

I did not see info on Jump to light speed here yet, but may have missed it. From what I remember JTLS was pre CU and they did not come out with the ability to fly within the atmosphere until near the end of the game. Does Awakening have space flight, space yachts etc?

At this stage no Pre-CU SWG server has JTL implemented. JTL is planned for addition and SWGEmu has started some of the backend reverse engineering work for it. As of yet no major dedication of development resources has been directed to it though.

It can be assumed that it will be at the very least another 1-2 years before we see any visible progress towards a playable JTL. However we will be implementing it here when it is released by SWGEmu.

Thanks Cyclone ...Please excuse my ignorance, but as I'm researching all these servers I'm seeing things that I'm not sure are related or not. Like " SWGEMU Basilisk " Is this part of Awakening or another emulator entirely? Just asking because you said ...we will be implementing it here when it is released by SWGEmu.

SWGEmu's Basilisk is considered the main vanilla Pre-CU test server for the emulation of Pre-CU (it is a test server so it will be wiped once they have completed their mission statement). SWGEmu works on the core aspects of the game in the state they were up until publish 14.1. They have nothing to do with Awakening apart from the fact that our core code is that of SWGEmu we then build off of and adapt it from the point they provide.

Awakening is what is considered a private play server (we have a no-wipe policy). We try to enhance the experience of Pre-CU in numerous ways which can be seen in the FAQ and About us sections of the website (these are somewhat out of date in some aspects, if you want to clarify anything feel free to do so). The patch notes listed in our forums also contain more specific changes.

Yes from what I have seen Awakening seems much more intuitive in many aspects. I think I've found my new home. I'll be attempting to get into the game over the next few weeks. Thanks for all the information.

My pleasure. We welcome you to Awakening and look forward to seeing you in-game!
