KurakilThey are world renown bug developers. Don't underestimate them.
Ah, a happy coincidence, I've just received my second stick for HOSAS setup and have to rebind everything, but, it was quite unexpected. So, I'll rebind the buttons and then will BACK UP BACK UP BACK UP the crap out of those files!

KarinkaHow to complete CG in Maia? The Bright Sentinel has Mission Board locked.
Other recent AX goals in Delphi/Merope/Meene completed successfully with no problem.


got post from fdev team about the last mission cg in maia:


Hey CMDR,

Thanks for getting in touch and sorry to hear that you are having trouble with this CG.

Our QA team has been made aware of this and the matter is currently under investigation. We aim to resolve this as soon as possible but currently I do not have an ETA on the fix.

In the meantime, we'd appreciate if you could contribute to this issue tracker report via: Cannot access Missions board on Bright Sentinel megaship in MAIA to claim Community Goal rewards as it will help our team with the investigation.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

MeowersOh, crap. My controls setup was reset. FDev, how do you manage to screw up such a primitive thing?


That's the second rule of E:D.

Rule 1: Don't fly without rebuy,
Rule 2: Backup your keybinds because FDev bork them quite frequently. Heck, it used to be every patch broke them in the beginning...

Is it me or has escape from interdiction gotten harder since the patches?
Usually I can escape no problem, now I don’t even get a chance to react to it. And it doesn’t matter what type of ship interdicts.

PvE or PvP?
NPC Interdiction seems to be the same.
The Combat Skill of the NPC might make a slight difference;
but check my profile, I got interdicted around Pleiades a few times in the last days.
Had no big Issue there. Pretty much just like before.

PvP with other Players; I don't know.
PvP was always extreme hard to escape.

PvP is borderline impossible to escape interdiction. I was trying to get into PvP and was looking to get interdicted. When it happened I immediately pulled the throttle all the way back to submit. The interdiction system went so quickly that it still counted as a forced interdiction instead of a submit. In another case the escape vector wasnt even moving so I made sure I was perfectly lined up on it. Still not a snowball's chance in hell of evading it. I can evade NPCs all day even when I'm in a Tyoe 9. Players? I'm practically convinced it's not possible at this rate.

yeah, it's always been this way. Only way to win is on weird bugs or maybe getting lucky and getting an obstacle between you and the attacker. Submit and high wake is the short of it when it comes to PVP

Question. FC interiors are just for Odyssey, right?
17 Dec 2021, 5:19pm
well you couldn't walk into the interior in horizons obviously
17 Dec 2021, 5:44pm
Gryphnnwell you couldn't walk into the interior in horizons obviously


I haven't been keeping up with the news and I was curious if they would have just ported the legs just for FCs for Horizons. Momentary lapse in judgement in forgetting how development works for this game. Won't happen again.

"Exploration data on systems that contain a full-size orbital Starport is freely available to everyone, while data for systems with less infrastructure or none at all can either be purchased for a small fee at a station"

Is it possible to buy exploration data for all explored a.k.a. visited systems, or UC branch only sells data of the system it is in? I did not even know that you could buy exploration data. I was under impression that by the game settings UC does not sell data at all.

If you select a system from the galaxy map, an Icon will appear if the data is purchasable. Beyond that, I am not sure of any specifics.
