p.s. Maybe I got banned for discovering the secret Raxxla-powered levitating steaming giant cow turd.

I have 3 collector limpets all in the same firing group.
Usually holding down the button would send them out till it reaches the max amount. But it just bugs out and only 1 per collector limpet controller gets sent out, even spamming the fire button does nothing.
In 1:10 times it works as it should though. But when it doesn't it is just super annoying.

The system was doing quirky things yesterday. Bots were extra stupid, one Commander posted videos of boomerang probes, and hackers were ganking people near jameson. I found a few bot pirates who were doing donuts in supercruise (really tough to interdict them when they do that.) They just kept looping over and over....?

Having a devil of a job trying to keep it cool - it's okay for just about everything except scooping, where it heats up very quickly even at low rates. I just went to Flic and got it engineered with reduced thermals as a priority and it made zero difference. I'm talking about mid-60's °C at around 50-60t/s fuel scoop. Switching from a 3A to 2A also made no difference. and btw the heat just keeps going up until I have to pull away with a smoke filled cockpit

M0bzgAre Imperial Couriers generally warm running?

Ever since their introduction they have always run hot while scooping for me.

Yes, they run hot, but with a 3A scoop you should be done by the time temperature hits 80%. And anything below 100% is perfectly safe. Just ignore the smoke.

CupcoDoes anyone know of a third party tool that let's you search systems for the Exobiology codex entries? EDSM has some, but they are moving slow to complete it. I need to find alternative sites so I don't have to fly 200,000 or 300,000 ls to a biological signal.
If you're just trying to check flora off your bucket list, the Codex actually gives you the location of the first discovered in each quadrant. If you're trying to figure out which planets are best to find certain flora then the Canonn website is pretty good. In fact it looks like it's got a tool now too so there you go.
If your goal is to just get the Exo grind over with then I recommend doing a spansh search for light water atmosphere type planets with gravity <2g and 100K<temperature<650K.
