Dirniviri am getting 8A prismatic for my cutter on Thursday when the powerplay turns over and my merits become ranks.


Be sure to buy few of each size unless you plan to serve the ue haired bimbo for eternity.

lol i have 400,000,000 cr so serving the bimbo is the way to go.
this is my second time unlocking prisses from her

I remember I've spent initially 1+ bil for green shields but I had to serve for 4 weeks again one year later because I couldn't buy size 1 - 3 initially.

i am going straight for the 8 to make the cutter shields that we all want in life that take like an hour to regen.

SakashiroSince I might be far away for an extended period of time, it's very important for me to know whether a raw material is available in deep space. I can't rely on unique sources such as thargoid sites, the crystal shards, or material traders. I can stock up before leaving, but that's only a temporary solution.


EDSM list systems that have all the materials avaialble for jumponium so if your out there you can search nearby systems for the mats you need.

Here is an example.

So this week we are expecting 30 new megaship spread on the road to Colonia. I wonder what their tritium supply will look like.

Yeah, I dumped 1.2b on her a while back for 24 green shields. I don't intend to get pally with her again.

Just have to rant a little, right now...
Haven´t been mining a while...

The amount of fragments being spawned inside an asteroid mesh is ridiciolous!

It´s a limpet genocide out there!
They are constantly commiting suicide, though collision...

Mine in Horizons. ED:O is borked

Not fragments only materials. Either put them all on ignore list till they fix that or as man said... mine in Horizons... Well amount of Selenium spawned in Odyssey is also insane... almost every 15-20 mats one selenium, shame half of them inside asteroid

Right!
I´ve noticed too, that the problem is caused my the materials.
It seemed, like there dropped at least one material while laser mining an asteroid.
And as far as I´ve seen, all of them spawned inside the asteroid.

You where right, mining in horizons worked around that.
But it also seemed, like only every fourth asteroid there dropped some material.
Shame.
But still OK.

Thanks to you both!

SakashiroI'd love to double my scoop rate with two fuel scoops, but FDev won't let me.


Oh, the joy of size 8 fuel scoop

Flying Chronus to Colonia was such joy!

Or how about a engineering mod which can increase scoop rate ? At the moment , all we can do is make a shielded fuel scoop ? who does that ? Seems wasted . But an increase in scoop rate would be useful and logical

I was surprised that wasn't there to begin with back then (not surprised any more given FDev tendencies), but yeah that was the ONE THING I was wanting for it.

FDev, useful and logical. Hmmm ????????

SakashiroI wonder if there's a technical reason for FDev to make traveling with a carrier so expensive. I like the option of mining for fuel, but why does it have to be such a grind?

I agree, i've spent so many hours mining tritium and got to 4000 tons but this amount gets lost so fast when you travel a little

There's a reason I hadn't planned on buying one of those...
