CG: Colonia Expansion - Help Needed!

Postby Roger Wilco Jr » Thu Dec 01, 2016 3:53 pm

So FD made the commodity a rare, and you can only get 10 at a time. It would take forever to fill up an Anaconda's hold. Even if you don't want to make the move out to Colonia (at this time), and if you are not interested in making the trip for the CG, maybe you can still help by picking up the Glactic Travel Guides from Bluford Orbital in LHS 3447 and drop them for players heading out? Hopefully anybody can buy the rares, and not just those that have registered for the Migration Pass. I'd be happy to compensate you by dropping gold (and I can pay for others too).

I suppose players can post intentions here, or just meet up in game?

As for me, I'll try to get on in about 6 hours, buy and outfit an Anaconda, then head over to the station.

Thanks for your assistance! :D


Maybe this should be moved to the CG forum? :oops:
It's time to give this another go.

I moved it to the CG forum, but left a Shadow Topic here in General that will redirect folks to the duplicate thread when they click on it. :)

Damn. I can't do this now. I've already been interdicted and blown up. I can't even take off from a station right now w/o hovering inside for 4 minutes while I try to get the throttle to respond. :x

To do this now, I'd need to switch back to a monitor and Track-IR, and use keyboard control - that is, relearn keyboard control. I've also discovered a problem with Voice Attack. I really don't want to go through all that trouble. I'm just going to wait until I get my new drive and reinstall Windows 7.

Those bastards at Amazon haven't even shipped the drive yet - ordered 2 nights ago. In the past (this time of year), I'd often get 1-2 day deliver with free shipping (since I quit Prime). Now I don't expect the drive for several more days. So it will probably be a week before I can start this CG and try to catch up. :(

Assuming everything works.

Is the commodity limited to 10 per 10 minutes or 10 in total per CMDR?

Not sure of the exact times but you can definitely buy more than one Lot.

I just unsuccessfully tested getting more than 10 units in the following ways:
-logoffsky instance switching
-waiting in station for 10-15 minutes
-waiting outside the station's no-fire-zone for 10-15 minutes
-jumping to another system for 10-15 minutes

The only way I can get a new allocation is to get rid of the current 10 I've got.
So... I think we really need to get this organised, or else the expansion attempt will die by itself in a few days, I'm afraid.

I've heard it both ways. All I know is I have an Anaconda with 452T of cargo space that I need to fill up. Just doing that myself will take 10-15 hours. If I can only buy 10, then I and others will definitely need some help. I'll try again to see if I can head over there (not holding my breath that I can) and hopefully there will be people dropping cargo this weekend.
It's time to give this another go.
