Every server you need to make a new character

Also you need to save your multiplayer ID number, yoiu get thius when you first go online, if you dont save this then you will lose any chars you have online

When you say about multiplayer ID and characters (chars?) does this mean i can still use the same character on a different server? I'm still not sure :confused:
 
No you cant. When you create a character on a server its stored server side. When you play on a different server you will have to create a new character for that server. Your characters do get stored though, so you can come back to the server you played on years ago and use your character again (assuming they havent deleted it due to inactivity).
You'll see how this becomes obvious when you play servers which use different mods and different ships, so using the same character for all would be impossible.
Also concerning Multiplayer ID's; If you ever have to for some reason re-install Freelancer, you'll do well to write down your MP ID as you need it to access your characters again. I guess characters get stored along with your MP ID so it knows who is who.
Hope this helps :)
 
Ok thanks for the help. :)

But what is the actual point of the MP ID? To remember your characters yes, but whats the point if you must creat a new character when you visit a different server anywho?
 
Exactly, when you first click multiplayer -> online, it asks you to enter a MP ID (this is only once, you wont need to do this every time). so say you created a character on a particular server, then you re-installed FL, now when you get to that stage of entering the MP ID again - say you entered a different one to the one you entered last time, you wont be able to see the characters you created on the 'Character Selection' screen of the said server.
