A.G.DuranJust a question I'm thinking about (because building my version of ASPX with interiors)
How you can detach and install modular bays and systems inside? How you can swap the big reactors and hyperdrives, how can you change the fuel tanks INSIDE of ship's geometry, without obligatory disassembling it on half. Each time.


When docked on a Hub or port go to out fitting in starport services. There you can change out all your ship inners

It is logically, but that's strongly against modularity. Mmmm, seems like that.

Have you noticed that vehicle and fighter hangars always end up at the same physical locations in the ship, no matter which slots you install them to?

What is mind blowing is that you still have fighter/hanger deployment doors even if you do not have the modules /s


Modules are where the stuff is stored. Deployment point is always same for the ship model.

The game will show where the modules are if you target them.

Check this.


Not sure if the guy made AspX but more or less this is the concept of modular design

You target hangar doors not the module itself.

Cmdr Geoff64reedYou guys on pc or ps?

If you click on any CMDR name you will be sent to the profile page. There is a commander info section where platform is shown... given the CMDR synchronize profile with inara.

since thursday morning, after the servers maintenance apparently, mainy cmdrs have reported crash to desktop on PC in CQC.
Those crashes could happened before the game or at the end of the game.
All platforms, instances, & game mode are concerned : PS4, XBOX, PC, Horizon, Odyssey, DM, TDM...
This makes CQC litterally unplayable.

A ticket has been raised, all cmdrs who are enjoying CQC, or just to support, are invited to vote for this bug in the issue tracker.

many thanks in advance

So what is the best avenue for trading these days that does not involve mining? I haven't done any amount of proper trading in years.

Well.. i used to check trade routes and apprently buying bauxite for <1000 cr per unit, then selling for around 25-35k cr per unit is the way without involving mining. Its faster than doing mining platinum or monazite. With fc is even better.
