Nightdemon00How long did it take any of you guys to get your minor faction added to the game?


It depends, FD add factions in batches so it can take a while.

Erm.. Unless I'm mistaken, I think they already did? Perhaps it was just the engineer's weaponry stuff. Cause, you know. Gatling Plasma Accelerator Guns.. 0_o

Well hand cranking it like a Gatling would certainly bring down energy use.

Go back to main menu and login again. That should fix it. I had this issue a couple of times too

Earlier i created a document titled "what you should know about barnacle sites" however after listening to feedback i created a much shorter and way better guide to barnacle sites.
it is titled "barnacles a short guide". this guid contains all the system data and detailed surface scans. in addition it also contains every known barnacle location and a criteria on where to look.

https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/275874-Known-Barnacle-Sites-a-Short-guide

It is much better than the first one!

To any of those who are interested, I currently have 3 extra Soontill Relics near Khun. If you need them, pop onto Open Play and look for me.

Ok, so I know some of this is a skill thing and still learning about this game and have not by no means fully mastered it. I make be asking to much from my ships, but  how and  why when ever I get into a dog fight  on my own I seem to just get ripped apart? Example  playing  yesterday  I got jumped my and  NPC  while running a Data Transfer mission I was in a ASP explorer  First time the NPC  jumped me  I was dead before I could even find out what type of ship it was. the second time  same NPC  was flying a Federal gunship. This time I  did at least get to deplot weapons and  target him before  he killed me, but it seems to be the norm any ship just seems to be able to take any ship I have apart in no short order  where I have to pound and most any thing to kill it. Any  suggestions  or help would be  so Welcome.

To be honest, an Asp should not stand a chance against a Federal Gunship. You need to be quick at deciding whether to run or fight and getting info on the target is the first priority. If you're being interdicted, select the interdicting ship before you voluntarily drop. If it's a sidewinder, blow it a away. If it's an Anaconda, run for your life.
