Does anyone have a good handle on level 3 scans?

I've got 5600, but I haven't DSS more than 20. Today I went out 1000ly, honked, scanned, and DSS planets. Came back, sold the data... no change to the level 3 scan figure in my Codex.

Anyone figure out how it works?

update: I just checked me Codex again, and it's gone up 87. Ok, so the Codex is a little slow, I can live with that. But 87, I only DSS about 5 planets.

There's a few things that in E:D. Some things just take a little bit to update on the servers.

Episparh...

P. S. You can try with someone else. I know Rat Catcher going back and forth quite often and you can try also fleet carrier owners club for regular ferry service.


You know me too well, my friend

I'll be flitting out that way again in around 10 days and will post details on the FCOC discord nearer the time,

All things considered I do not find the statue of liberty all that impressive view wise.

Is the Anaconda the only ship that shows the effects of being damaged, as in, looking at it from the outside?

Anaconda damage displayed example

If so, why is it the only one?

I'd love to see the damage displayed being applied to all of the ships.

Idk why but yes it's the only one

Is that battle damage you mean, Synth? Plain wear-and-tear shows on other ships, Don Uggie’s Phantom looked like it had been sand-blasted at the end of DW2

Hello everyone, one of the main reasons i started playing this game is that i saw a video where a cmdr was rescuing ppl from inside a burning station. But since i started playing i havent seen anything on my galaxy map or inara>damaged stations. Is there a schedule for that or they removed that option from the game?

Battle or similar damage, yes. I wore the paint off >60% of my AspX during a long list of exploring systems. I thought of that as a badge of honor.

The link I posted was of my 'Conda after an encounter with an NPC pirate wanting my goodies from mining. It was fitted for mining, not combat, so when I saw the opportunity, I simply rammed him again & again until that glorious ball of fire.

On my way back to the station for repairs, which were easily more than covered by the proceeds, I was noticing the smoking & sparking from various points along that yacht-like foredeck.

A true pity that something similar hasn't (yet?) been enabled by the FDevs for all ships!

Stations burn from targoyd attacks .. or from sabotage of people (but this has not happened for a long time).

The damaged station occurs if there is event such as Thargoids' incursion or attack on station. Both are triggered by Frontier development. Once the Thargoids' incursion is repealed or the event ends the burning effect is removed and rescue missions disappear. The station stay damaged until players fix it by hauling resources and selling them to the station.

Take Unknown probes (several, look for information, how many you need) and break the station.
