Back in Skaudai sector

Postby thebs » Sun Sep 17, 2017 8:03 am

Back in Skaudai sector, just landed at Sacaqawea Space Port in Skaudai CH-B d14-34. Took a very indirect route from the bubble, and hit several POI:

I'm still just a Pioneer, up to 55% towards Elite Exploration. Looks like I won't make it to Elite before I get to Colonia. But I'll keep on scanning all the way.

Bad luck today. Was a doing a mission for OoM and was unware of the Skimmer ramming bug as I haven't been active during summer. Result: my Cutter destroyed and payed 20mils rebuy. Support ticked filed, this is ridiculous.

Currently trying to get the last rank level in Fed and Empire Space. This way, if I get killed by the Bugs, which ever side survives (cause one of them is going to start the war, we all know that), give me a full Military or Monarchy burial.

59% more to get to King, and 38 to Admiral. Oh and in case its the Alliance, I am a Staunch Ally. And if no one survives, I have a few anarchy system friends that will shoot my dust into space.

We need to intercept that, or we will get Kharma\Thargoid hybrids..

Doing very little in the game right now apart from the odd hour if I am lucky, due to a medical emergency. Have I broke my arm or leg? No, I have a boil on the butt :D but its in the perfect position to cause maximum discomfort when sitting. Please no one tell me I can play standing up. I was bounty hunting for oom this morning, and I am the type who detests going back to the station until I have exhausted my ammunition. I often curse my ammunition running out but this morning I was praying for it. I played a good 50% of the time standing up and trust me, it totally spoils the effect.

Did some bounty hunting at Azrael 6's High Rez and cashed in about 10mil. Also just got a reply from FDev's support, I got refunded and my bounty was cancelled regarding that encounter with the Skimmer and my Cutter. I think I'll avoid going down to planetary installations of any kind for now until 2.4 is out. Not many days to go after all.

Lost my Python about 3 weeks ago to same issue. They fall from the sky as you approach and if you hit them, dead. Oh well. I knew it was a reported bug but didn't contact support. Now I approach, get my pad assigned, then move out and come in low and slow till I see them on the ground. It adds about 30 seconds to the landing, no big deal, but still a pain in the arse.

I approach the planetary bases from a low altitude, horizontally from assigned landing pad. I slow to a craw about 2.5km away and watch for the skimmer rain. Once they are on the ground i proceed in to land. Very easy to do and I've never been hit by one
