Ah, Blue Stahli.
Never thought that I'll say it, but you have a good taste, phah.


I kind of like this style for years. Here is one for you:

Not Blue Stahli, but I track I found today.

SalmoneaRecapitulation:
my current ship is in diferent system
I arrived with apex to starport where I havent a ship
I transfer diferent ship with inter astra to my current location
I cant use this ship,because I have set my current ship in diferent system



You can change your current ship with inter Astra. Just go there and select the ship and switch to it after it arrives before using the lift.

Thats weird.

Yeah, I agree, it is a bit counter intuitive but if you think for a moment you will realize that this is logical.
Which will be your default ships if you transfer 10 ships to your current station? There are just two actions - transfer and switch. If you do not do the latter, your current ship remains whatever it was. Switch can be done only to ships at the current port.

Aw, thank you.
Kinda... Fits me well.

Can anyone point me to systems with landable water atmosphere planets or moons they may have found around the Bubble? Preferably populated with planetary ports or settlements. EDSM filters aren´t working for me anymore, and I would very much like to visit more of those.

It appears no water/water-rich atmospheres are landable at this moment, I am afraid.
You can try this and fiddle with different atmosphere types instead.

Hmm, they do exist:



None of the third-party tools I´ve tried seem to be able to find these anymore.

Today I fixed another minor annoyance of the Mamba. Previously, when I fired the beam lasers and boosted at the same time, temperature would go into critical range and sometimes even hit 100%. Heat damage, if any, was always minor but annoying nonetheless. Thermal vent on an efficient beam doesn't work well (hitting a floor at 24%), but if stacked on four efficient beams, it does! So I added the effect to all of them, and now when I boost and roast, temp goes not up but down, sometimes even to the point of freezing. Haven't heard any heat warnings ever since, and the NPCs also seem to have more trouble hitting me.

But you had thermal conduit on them before so you should be happy about more than 100% heat

Interesting, thanks for the information. I will check what is/was going on with it.

Edit: There was indeed some problem with the "landable" flag not being set sometimes. I made a fix and updated around 13k celestial bodies with the proper flags. More will be updated during the regular updates, when missing. Thank you for bringing this into my attention.

That was the original plan, but I never overheated long enough for that effect to become useful.

Mining in Odyssey is a bad joke. Thargoid megaforest is empty, old known location for grinding raw materials are gone. All bookmars with overlaping hotspots are useless. I dont want switch to Horizons,then back to Odyssey..

And you better not without at least 2 MRPs.

EpisparhAnd you better not without at least 2 MRPs.

Yup, I had some MRPs in the beginning but ditched them for SRPs later. Kept thermal conduit because I didn't know what else to put on instead. Also didn't know thermal vent would stack so well.

Testing and tweaking builds like this is really the one thing that sets ED apart from other games. If only the suit engineering system was like that. Permanent mods that can't be replaced? Who came up with that stupid idea?

Btw, now I'm glad I engineered my shield for high absolute damage resistance. With the bi-weave's faster recovery, ramming has become a viable tactic. Saves some ammo, too.
