Unfortunately, geysers are somewhat bugged at the moment, it seems FDev re-used the original barnacle code with all the original bugs :-( As a result, the POIs do not always spawn; some players are lucky, some are unlucky.

There are three confirmed locations within the Colonia system itself as well as one in a nearby system.

Yes, Eol Prou RS-T d3-94 is now Colonia, and 80 DD-D 774-CE-2 is now Jaques station.

Good, cause that was needlessly long. I assume that's thanks to the random nature of how systems are named.

I wish Frontier would allow us to purchase the names of stars we've been to. A $5-25 fee or the like to name a star outside the bubble would be awesome. Put the pricing on a sliding scale, from a Class L to a Neutron Star. It would add a nice touch to be out in the void and stumble upon someone's named star.

Hello,
So is Colonia where Jacques station is or is Jacques station in a completely different system? Keep getting confused.

Thanks for the pointers to geysers in Colonia.

Have fun, fly safe. o7

P.S.: Here's hoping to one day FDev having enough time and manpower to fix their code.

Colonia is both the name of the complete nebula as well as the name of a system inside this nebula. Jaques station is in the Colonia system.

Just taking a passenger out on a sightseeing trip in my Cobra. This is a steam screenshot. I wasn't sure what the in-game key was for it.

I'll have to remember that. The resolution in the Steam one just didn't do it any justice.

Steam has really junked screenshots for E:D for some time.. It wasn't always like that though. When Horizons was a separate game, I could swear the screenshots looked better.

Picked up a couple of "kill x number of pirates from this faction in this system". They're not bloody spawning. I've had like 2 in the last hour and they not going on the total in the transactions tab. I'll try handing them in, see what happens.
