I started to mess arround with hull tanks last weekend. Can someone confirm, that engineering life support to either shielded or reinforced will make your canopy more durable too? Or is it just the AFM that keeps them alive?

That's something I would like to know, the ai does a real bangup job of targeting subs and they LOVE your canopy; just like PB loves J on sammiches.

I put in one of those defensive modules that absorb 60% of subsystem dmg (till it reaches it's integrity capacity) and I think that helped.

The module reinforcement does absorb canopy damage, but i think it's repairaible only using repair limpets, not afmu.

As Kuroro said, MRPs can help. Life Support engineering will not affect canopy. AFMU can indeed repair the canopy, though.

Usually most remain somewhat protective online of their identity but Personal Messaging can work if there is any interest shown. There is certainly no mechanic designed for that.

Hello El Puerco.. You are new to us today it looks like.


Well personal messaging works but takes ages with people being all over the world lol

Oh Im an old timer just not been on here for a while :-)

Mmmh, if it is about the credits, I would not suggest either. With a Cutter and as a squadron leader, why not do a couple of wing trade missions. Besides, the Cutter is not the best choice for mining anyway, imo.

Okay thank you for the info but why is the cutter not good for mining?

Mining takes quite a lot of time (currently) in order to get a decent return.

Wing trade missions guarantee a good return (excess if 10 million usually) typically inside of an hours work.

Okay can i do wing missions solo with the Cutter? I did one wing mission with a trade vette solo and made it and the Cutter has a lot more cargo space...that tells me that i can solo wing missions with the Cutter but i think it was a small mission that i did with the vette i think it was like 1500T or something
