WaylongwayThe manual refill sucks big. Hope you still have another account in the bubble or somewhere else you can actually do something.
Multiple FCs per account would actually come in handy for trading. I don't think this will happen, though.


Since FC's are permanently instanced, it makes sense to limit them. There are players with enough credits to buy enough FC's to max out a whole system. There's a player with over 2 trillion credits they could just spend at will. That would be enough to fund the entire Deep Space Support Array of fleet carriers.

As for the refueling, we have to pay an upkeep to maintain the crew on the carriers. Why can't they move tritium from the cargo hold to the FC's fuel tank? I'm paying for a fueling crew to be on board. Part of the crew includes a captain for the FC. When I want to make a long trip, why can't a course be plotted? Why do I have to refuel the carrier and plot each individual jump? What am I paying my crew for?

Also yes, my primary account (and my 4th fleet carrier) are in the bubble.

Sir-Duke We never get a new update without some new bugs, do we?


I lately enjoyed booking my APEX Shuttles and randomly get dropped through the floor I was standing on and end up one deck lower. At another occasion after booking the Lady at the counter wished me a good day moments before I was catapulted backwards, through all the walls and outside the Outpost I was on before descending into space and fading to black moments later, only to find me back inside standing before her again.

Damn that's some strong Onionhead!

I hate to farm Jameson's crash site again, but gathering high grade encoded materials the "normal" way takes forever.

Have you tried hacking a megaship?

Science vessels and researchers drop up to MEF after hacking their comm arrays.

All you need is recon limpet and silent running when attaching limpet and when hack completes

Down to Earth Astronomy did a interesting report on this;

If we still want to go full slaughterhouse on settlements, maybe we should pick those, who will have a forced support.
For example, I´m only farming materials in settlements from Eurybian blue mafia.
Because they will also fin enough supporters, because on Liz Ryder the engineer girl.

Also, for interest sake, pack Planetary vehicle hangar so you can check out the new SRV when it drops next week



The new SRV won't be next week/Update 8, as it's still in development.


But how do you know?
