Mac4We need an off-topic smiley
So, ahem. How does one go about gathering 25 occupied space pods? According to the wiki, they can be found in circumstances so general that it bears not mentioning.
(I guess one could run 25 missions for them and pay off the fines for not turning them in, but I was hoping for something less roundabout.)
check out meene ab 5 c/d for recoverable wreckage signals, there are enough occupied escape pod´s to collect

Ah! Ty! But ofc I should've thought of that before setting out to look up ol' Etienne (insert slap-self-on-forehead-pretty-loudly emoticon here).

But it's really tiny. Without the FSS sound I would have mistaken it for a star.

MiseriWhen a CG says MINED materials im gonna have to guess they wont just let you buy this stuff and haul it, its gotta be MINED by you correct?
The game can't really make a difference between honestly mined or easily bought; if you find something for sale, you can bring it there, too.

When Frontier says mined they meant commodities processed by refinery on your own ship. You can store them on your FC but if you sell/buy the attribute mined is gone.

That is not true. The game can tell if the commodity is mined by you. Some people tested it and some people found this out the hard way.
When CG requires mined this means processed by your refinery. Bought, Stolen, Given - overwrites the status of mined.
For example:
If I scrap asteroid and someone else collect chunks and process them in refinery it will work.
If I refine a commodity and abandon/drop/sell/buy it - It will not work.
And again:
Mining and storing on a fleet carrier do not erase the flag for the owner.

Alex Hoffmannyep, true. yesterday i sold bought and stored (mined) materials.. only the own mined material count.. the other brings only money.
So you'll get paid, but no further advantage for the CG?

Yep, bought, stolen, given commodities only give credits, no progress for CG.

If that's what you mean.

Yuna SakashiroIt looks like the anomaly has stopped moving (if it ever moved at all). I took two photos of it from deep space in Oochorrs UF-J c11-0 about four hours apart, and it changed neither its size nor its position relative to other stars in the skybox.
Goids saw miners' frenzy and gave up
