A military-grade, Steele Tech-branded data probe.
Trials in Tainted Space. 0.7.05 Changelog: Fixed Haley things. Fixed Curdsonwhey looting. Woah woah woah, there’s a crashed probe on Uveto? When did that happen? I thought Uveto was a side planet like New Texas, in that it was too close to the core to even be a candidate for the probes. Tiwick the purple cabbit returns to Trials in Tainted Space with this let's play series. A text-based adventure game with a 'furries in space' theme.Enterin. TRIALS IN TAINTED SPACE Fen here, parasitizing myself onto the CoC2 bois’ post to hit you all with some quick bugfixes. Tomorrow I’m going to be trying to unfuck some damage to my sleep schedule, so probably just going to be fixing bugs if anything.
Description
In the spirit of the Planet Rush, Victor has placed data probes in undisclosed locations on each planet-of-interest for Captain Steele to find. Each probe is gene-locked and can only be accessed using biometrics. Upon opening, they will reveal data containing coordinates of the next probe. Essentially, the trail of probes will lead to Victor's personal probe, which contains an encrypted key that opens his deposit box in the Tavros Station bank, winning the rights to inherit his company and his accumulated fortune.
Captain Steele isn't alone in the hunt however--A rival cousin, offspring of Victor's greedy brother Maximilian Steele, has also made an appearance to beat Steele to the fortune. Due to similar genetics, the cousin can also access the information in the probes. If Steele is interested in the fortune Victor has set out, Steele can choose to capture each probe before the rival does and ultimately claim the boon.
Quests
Locations
Each data probe, or pod, can be found in sequence from the main story's questline:
- First Pod: East jungle of Mhen'ga, at the end of a narrow path.
- After beating Dane in combat, it can be reclaimed for a bounty of 10,000 credits.
- Second Pod: Auctioned in Shekka's shop after the Stellar Tether mission.
- After attaining the probe, it can be reclaimed for a bounty of 20,000 credits, sold to Shekka for 14,000 credits, or given to Shekka.
- Third Pod: Located at Queen Taivra's Palace in the Deep Caverns of Myrellion.
- After defeating Taivra in combat or after marrying her and negotiating to give her a replacement throne, it can be reclaimed for a bounty of 20,000 credits.
- Fourth Pod: Located in the cargohold of 'The Sidewinder' in the Scaffolds of Zheng Shi.
- Unlike the previous pods, the pirates of Zheng Shi recognized the potential value of the pod. Even though they couldn't access it, they did seal it away in a cargohold of The Sidewinder in the Scaffolds behind a highly advanced encryption lock, meaning that it can only be accessed after obtaining the password from the LDC or by using an even more advanced decryption software. The Sidewinder's hatchway to the Captain's Quarters is also locked and needs advanced decryption software or Dr. Teyaal's key card so that you can meet the LDC. Also, unlike the previous pods, you can't sell this one back to Steele Tech since, realistically, some poor transport unit can't come all the way to a top-secret, heavily fortified Pirate Base in the middle of an asteroid, in the middle of nowhere, in space.
- Fifth Pod: ???
There’s some legwork to be done before meeting Feruze on Dhaal – namely attending a high class party to make connections and perhaps gain some intel on who – if anyone – knows where the probe is! This patch includes an early version of the party, still lacking some polish (and prizes), but I will be looking at adding a cheat code so that it can be revisited if you want to try it now without missing out on rewards.
0.8.111 Changelog:
Trials In Tainted Space Uveto Probes
- New Party even on Dhaal! To start it off, head to the northmost Taxi station (and I don’t mean the one in the spaceport). Depending on your actions at the party, you’ll get to meet one of Dhaal’s CEOs and, perhaps, even curry enough favor to receive a gift (PRIZES NOT YET IMPLIMENTED).
- Note: you need appropriate party attire to attend. Appropriate clothing is sold on Dhaal. If you think other classy outerwear should also be tagged as appropriate, feel free to report it as a bug, and I’ll make a call on it tomorrow.
- New Busts: Zaika Peers (3x + Nude variants), XOs (Dhaal cybernetic security gals), Male Zil.

Trials In Tainted Space Uveto Probe -
Tomorrow’s patch should polish up bugs, add in the missing rewards, and give you guys a cheat code to replay it. Savin did fantastic work on writing the event, and I hope you guys enjoy it.
P.S. There’s two hidden mini-events in the party that can proc featuring Anno or Beth Carver, depending on their states and previous interactions.
