SakashiroThe problem is much worse than that. Even if you just drop out of supercruise next to a fleet carrier, that carrier will become your respawn point in subsequent rebuy screens. So if my ship happens to get destroyed on the way back to civilization, I'll have a choice to respawn in a Sidewinder in the Bubble (and lose my current ship forever) or on that carrier in my current ship, but possibly without enough materials to synthesize the FSD injections I need to leave the system again.


I believe the Fuel Rats have FC's to help out in these instances.

I just looked at the system map of Oevasy SG-Y d0 and found that its planets actually have all the materials needed to synthesize premium FSD injections.

Beagle Point journey progress report: I returned from Salomé's Reach to Beagle Point to scan the beacons I skipped on the first visit.

Supercruising through these remote systems is really scary. Sometimes you can't tell if the black void ahead of you is the sky or the dark side of a planet. Without reference points you don't even know if you're flying in a straight line or if your ship is rolling. Always keep orbit lines on and pay attention to impact warnings!

Btw, when I scanned a tourist beacon in Beagle Point, a wing of four ships showed up and scanned me for cargo. I kid you not, there are pirates 65,000 Ly away from the Bubble! Unfortunately I forgot to bring a kill warrant scanner.

I wouldn't even have something on my AspX to kill them...

Excuse me, but could I have a moment of your time to teach you about the Church of Cryptkeeper Torval and her mining lasers of doom?

Ah, well... you probably could, but since I'm in the middle of nowhere on a slow motion trip to Colonia, it doesn't change anything for the near future...

"We have been trying to reach you about your ships extended warranty!"

Not going to lie, if I was a dev at Frontier, I'd see if I could put in an NPC in some random systems way out in the middle of nowhere that would just post this in chat whenever a player shows up in the system.
