WarCat72Has there ever been an in game explanation for why we can't land on Earth-like worlds? I was assuming it was because an FSD would do bad things to a life bearing world's atmosphere.
No. It's strictly a gameplay limitation, not a lore one.

so what will happen if i try to approch the atmosphere of Earth-like planets ? will i get burnt and die by overheating? or just get kicked out the planet and sent to the orbital? or else?

As Isaiah said, try it. And then try flying into a star.
Don't worry, you'll be fine.

HoughtkjCan someone please explain how double engineering works? As in the CG reward of a class 2B railgun which appears to have Long range AND High capacity along with a Feedback cascade experimental. Are these things a unique build? I certainly can’t buy and engineer this myself at Blaster Mcquinn’s . Thanks.
You can add long range OR high capacity. Double engineered modules are unique. You either receive them as reward or in some cases you can buy them from technology brokers for a set of engineering materials.

EpisparhThat rail gun would be far more useful if it was long range + lightweight
Yes it’s a pity we can’t pick and choose. I’ll have a beam laser with overcharged and efficient thanks.

EpisparhThat rail gun would be far more useful if it was long range + lightweight
and if there was more than one. No mention so far of being available in tech brokers after the event, so just the single med hp railgun.
