Mr_b_698Is there a reason when I honk on arriving in some systems it’ll report finding 15 bodies, which can then all be seen in the system map, but then others will tell me I’ve discovered 6 bodies, but on looking in the map, only 1 or 2 stars can be seen. I thought my scanner was supposed to uncover all bodies in the system and display in the system map?

Sir SprockettI must be doing something wrong...

I went mining today. Set up the Cutter, for core mining for one of the new minerals.

Chose a system that had lots of astroid belts icy and rocky, flew in went up to a Ring and did a detailed discovery scan, nothing on this ring, went to next, scanned it yes, ALEXANDRITE hotspot. Brilliant. Super cruised in the area lit up by the scan about 1000 k from the target. I have an Abrasion Blaster and a Siesmic charge miner, with 2 mining lasers, collector limpet and Refinery and all the important Pulse wave analyser.

SO off i go, Plusing the analyser finding the high lighted rocks, popping a prospector limpet on it seeing whats there, 60 limpets later, in 3 totally different areas within the "hotspot" and 2 hours of flying through and astroid belt. For water and methonal crystal. Nothing else what so ever. No small amounts, no readings nothing of the Alexandrite hotspot. NOTHING not small amounts in any of the rocks I prospected.

I appreciate mining is not meant to be super quick or amazing supply of rocks, but to spend 2 hours getting nothing not 1 reading of the mineral.

Is something broken?

I would not mind if to fill my ship up (128 tones) over 2 hours, but not too even mine anything as there was nothing to mine, seems very broken?

Any suggestions?

If it is a system you have been to before, honking it will deliver you no new data other than signal sources. If it is a system with no bodies other then the stars you will not see anything. If it is a system you have not been to before, after honking you need to FSS it and gather the body data.

The pulse wave analyzer is broken. It actually shows behind you now rather then in front of you. No one knows why. I did how ever think Alex was a laser mind product. I may be wrong.

Hm. Is the CG considering previous finds (which are listed on eddb) or new finds only?

Yes, any exploration data for AW counts. Spansh have Amonia plotter as well

It's shit. I mean, nerfing mining (for like the 3rd time) is great and all, but when core mechanics are broken, what do you expect the mining community to do?

Amata LireinSomething I noticed in the last few days, but am not sure if I'm imagining it:

I'm currently still in the Mandh system, helping Artemis Corporation with keeping control of the system.

I'm playing in a private group. I noticed that since the end of the CG the number of NPC traffic going in and out of Miyasaka Orbital has dropped significantly. And during the event the NPC traffic seemed to somewhat mirror what players seemed to be piloting in open, with a lot of Cutters, T7s and T9s coming through.

Has anyone else noticed something similar in their PG or solo play?

NuzioHi, I'm new to talking here. Something I really got interested into in Elite Dangerous is the combat. I have been using a Cobra MK III so far and it has served me well, but I am thinking I will need an upgrade eventually. My friend suggested to me a Diamondback Explorer as a good all-rounder ship, but I started comparing the base stats of the two ships and was concerned if this was the right choice. What would you guys suggest as a good upgrade from the Cobra? I currently have around 20 mil, so if I can buy something now that would be awesome, but I'm fine with having a long term goal.

Asp Explorer works for literally anything, just engineer it to suit your needs. I personally recommend an Alliance Challenger or an Alliance Chieftan if you're going for combat.
