Use the galactic map filter to find the scoopable stars close to you. Always plan ahead, if you are below half tank, start checking the stars enroute to see if scoopable. Else, find one that is and get topped up.

I tend to be very cautious when exploring cause there is a problem where if the match making server disconnects in mid jump, you are back to the system where the jump started minus the fuel required to make the jump.

Have fun, fly safe. o7

Thank you to all Commanders who flew with me (most funilliey with The Team (who I have apparently legally adopted for wealth management reasons)).

The bad ships Irritant now sport two 'E's

Back at work after two 4-day weekends. :(

Right now my Sidey is parked about 1/3 of the way to Colonia. I got distracted watching football and ran out of fuel - luckily I jumped to a scoopable star. Phew! :roll:

Clearing my save and starting over in a Sidey is the best thing I've done in over a year. When I do things, working for it, I feel like I'm actually accomplishing something. I was just bored silly being able to do whatever I wanted by just paying for it. I think I'll still slow play my advancement in hopes of more fun things to learn and do in Season 3 - especially as a low ranked player. :)
It's time to give this another go.

I have to agree the "outlander" challenge gave the game direction for me in a fun and a very challenging way, 8-)
good luck and o7 CMDR!

and if you are interested I got a writeup in the Colonia Gazette as the 3rd to make it :mrgreen:

I had no Imperial rank but bought the iCourier midnight paintjob so I've been working on ranking up. I swear getting allied with a faction is like watching a kettle boil; seems to take no time at all when your not waiting for it!

Aliens. Aliens?!?!

For real?

I saw that eRayzor was speaking with the pilot. Was this an EPVE pilot that made the discovery?

We've already seen crashed alien ships, why do people still think those videos are "photoshopped" ?
