Turns out that particular one predates this incident (unless the Federation is slow on the uptake), but that's good enough for me. I'll check it once I can get turned around from the Coalsack Nebula.
On Galnet today: "Over the past few months, several reports have surfaced of Federal convoys coming under fire in the Maia system. While circumstantial evidence strongly suggested Thargoid involvement, the Federation declined to comment, saying only that the matter was 'under investigation'. &q...
They have been in the same instance, but that does not guarantee they show up on your scanner. If you want a quick notification about other human players, hit ctrl-b in game (PC only). This will show the game bandwidth. While you are alone in an instance, almost no data flows, except for the update...
That tab on your Comms Panel, that shows all the other Commanders that you've run into, what's the range on that? How close does another player have to get to you before they show up on that list? Same system, next system over? Because all five people on there, I've never actually seen, and I'm pret...
it's hard to triangulate with only one (moving) satellite :) Fdevs could even make it another engineering fiesta to make it able to detect fainter and fainter signals. That would add a LOT to exploration Lots of possibilities, none in place. fingers crossed So speaking of that, is there a way of su...
I usually nail down the correct latitude first, then zero in on the longitude. So when I approach the planet, I'll orient so the planet's terminator is pointed up and down, because that's usually a decent indicator of what is north and south (not always). I'll zero out the throttle once the coordina...
Yeah, Python is my next ship goal after I fit out this AspX. Not really interested in Clippers or Cutters though, they remind me to much of the pinnaces from the Honorverse novels. I'd be too tempted to name one the Scotty Tremaine . Oh yes, I've also known about Coriolis for awhile. It's where I go...
I want to make sure I'm understanding how shield generators and hull mass interact. I have a ship I'm building, and it's hull mass is as follows: Hull: 280 tons Unladen: 450 tons Laden: 546 tons I want to use my largest module slot for a cargo rack, and still have decent shields for some light comba...
So I've jumped on the Elite bandwagon a lot later than most of you guys, so forgive the rookie unfamiliarity with the lore. But I'd like to think that the relationship between humanity and the Thargoids is the product of one gigantic misunderstanding after another. As in, we got off on the wrong foo...
