Jump clones: Difference between revisions

Line 6:

When you activate a jump clone, your current body, with all its implants, is left behind at the station where you are. Your old body effectively turns into a new jump clone and you can jump back into it later. After jumping, you have to wait for at least 24 hours before jumping into another clone. Think of it as jumping with your 'mind' or 'soul' between the bodies. You bring all your skills and standings, but leave the body (and its implants) behind.

Both skill clones and jump clones are purchased at medical facilities in stations. But you can also get a jump clone installed aboard a capital vessel that has Clone Vat Bays fitted. ~~So far,~~ the only ~~type~~ of ships that may use Clone Vat Bays are ~~Motherships~~ and the Rorqual.

Both skill clones and jump clones are purchased at medical facilities in stations. But you can also get a jump clone installed aboard a capital vessel that has Clone Vat Bays fitted. At this time the only types of ships that may use Clone Vat Bays are Titans and the Rorqual.

If you die (get podded), your jump clone is not affected at all. You will end up wherever your skill clone is and all your jump clones will still be available. Your skill clones are independent of your jumpclones, so even if you have a jump clone somewhere, you still need a skill clone to make sure you don't lose skillpoints when you die.

Line 21:

===Can Jump Clones be lost?===

Yes, if the location your clone is at gets destroyed, so will the jump clone and any implants that were on it (e.g. when the ~~Mothership~~ that is carrying your Jump Clone ~~get~~ destroyed, The installed Jump Clone is lost).

Yes, if the location your clone is at gets destroyed, so will the jump clone and any implants that were on it (e.g. when the capital ship that is carrying your Jump Clone is destroyed, The installed Jump Clone is lost).

===Careful, careful===
