3308 Holiday Event

Hehe
Would it be really stupid idea to try this in my AX ship???

Thanks FDev :)
I finally got the paint wear I've been looking for on a ship... that's probably going to get blown up tomorrow.
 
I was going to post once I realized where I was going, but got ninjad...

If you've never seen it, then have a look at your ship before you repaint or lose it.
 
Pilots’ Federation ALERT

Independent pilots report that the notorious hacker and anti Xmas activist Grin Che has exploited a known weakness in the onboard Codex database system, preventing the ship OS from storing backups of messages relayed by Sandra Corrs.
Pilots are advised to not delete their original inbox copies at the peril of losing vital delivery information.

My joystick decided to go haywire yesterday, deleting two of the inbox messages from the listening post. Scanning a second time isn't possible and the messages aren't saved anywhere else, effectively preventing me from solving the puzzles by myself. Minor annoyance in the grand scheme of things but it highlights again that the Codex is in dire need of some TLC.

Maybe it's a stupid idea, but these text messages could be saved in your cmdr log file ?
 
Don't open 'til Xmas after delivery 6
Not that I need another one but wasn't this THE opportunity for a free conda? I'm not complaining (Hutton was still on my bucket list) just puzzled


Not stupid at all, I'd love to have them in there. Sadly none of the inbox messages are written out.
Maybe it would have been a bit much in terms of value, but I agree it would have been worth it just for the meme value!
 
Has this event ended? I could not find the beacon near the station
The beacon isn't close to Frost Station, it is closer to one of the other outposts. Look in your contacts panel for Sandra's Mailbox.

Do take care though. There I was, just a few days into my shiny new 'Live' experience with my transferred-from-console cmdr, and one of my first experiences is getting blown up whilst scanning the beacon. It's just not on, it wouldn't happen in legacy mode.:ROFLMAO:

Yeah just figured this out. I filtered only stations and the beacon is a signal/POI...

Omw to the children, thanks and o7
 
I might have some sad news for Sandra this Xmess. I mean, where exactly are Dolph’s Routes operating? There is absolutely nobody other than myself and these Thargoids at 63 Tauri.
 
In a typically stupid move, I'd set off to do the 5,000 LY trip to unlock Palin on my alt earlier in the week lol, now I'm going to have to finish that off and suicide back to the bubble to save my limited game time for gift delivery. Ho ho ho indeed. 😁 🎅

(My main account is currently on the other side of Sag A* and will not be returning for Christmas.)
I am heading back to the bubble now. about 7kly out......... unfortunately I didn't take a field maintanence unit and my FSD keeps cutting out which is making it take longer than it should.
 
I applaud Frontier for trolling us with a delivery to Hutton, and then doubling down with only a credits reward so people who don't want to go there don't miss out on anything awesome or exclusive.
I think it was a very missed opportunity by Fdev to give us a 2nd bobblehead, of an anaconda... That would have been priceless. But I agree that was a good call, I have been playing for over 2 years and had no previously visited there and probably would not have otherwise, so well done.
 
aaaaand what did I do? click to sell all at the first destination X(
I did slightly better and waited to the next to last destination to do that.

Other than the nice commander with a Mamba who was providing a rebuy for making the trip
 
Any carriers going to Hutton ? Asking for a friend... or better said two... :giggle:
It's my two Alt commanders but I don't have the time to fly out there again twice... :confused:
I've been watching for a space out at Hutton since the event started. If any of the carriers there have moved I haven't seen it.
Without active carrier movement we're stuck with the slog.
