all discovered


It seems this can mean several completely different things ED.

  1. You arrive, check the map and it only shows you the star -you honk (Discovery Scanner) and then scan with the FSS (Full Spectrum System Scan) etc.
  2. or you arrive check the map and it has all the planets already visible (someone else has FSS'ed) but you have never scanned (FSS) the system?
  3. Or did you mean you just honked the system
186 systems is still a nice stack, no matter what.
Regardless, good job. This can pay surprisingly well.

I have no idea how may I have discovered first because I have not sold the second half of my map stack (on my way back). Nobody out here from Empire to buy it.
Did not screenshot the sale of the first half and I can't remember.

I'm working my way through most of the Elite-related books, from decades ago, and just purchased some of the more recent ones from Frontier.

I noticed that some of the books (three, specifically) are not available through Frontier. They are: "Wanted" by Gavin Deas, "Nemorensis" by Simon Spurrier, and "Docking is Difficult" by Gideon Defoe.

They seem to have mixed reviews online. Would anyone say they are worth the purchase? Or can/should I just skip over them to get to "Lave Revolution" by Allen Stroud (which would be after them, by publish date)?

Do any of you use Thrustmaster Warthog? I ask because T 16000M I have, has a really short range of motion and there is no centre (speed zero) you can feel or hear on the throttle. Is it available on Warthog?

The TFlight has the centering thing you're mentioning. When I used it, I quite liked that feature. However, it's lacking in the number of buttons.
I now use the T16000M as well, so I know what you're referring to with trying to use the throttle for both forward and backward movement. My workaround is to use the full throttle range as either forward or backward and then toggle whether I want forward or backward thrust.

I know that doesn't answer your question about the Warthog throttle, but maybe it will help in the interim with the throttle we both use.
