PSA: Check system scale before making a claim is potentially good for your mental health (maybe)

[NotThisOne]

So after I finished building in LP 355-64, I started looking around to see if anyone else is needing a hand, and I found this system (and it's despair)...

The Colonization ship is parked more than 200 thousand Ls away, took all my Heatsinks and almost all fuel to reach it...

... and not too surprisingly, the progress has being slow. Poor lad probably only did it a few times before succumb to their depression/boredom...

So, commanders, do a survey first before making a claim.
Also I'm pretty sure that the system can still be built probably in 20 hours of work compare to 5 hours where it is normally took.

Somebody moved the needle big (not me, I only shipped a few times). Either the lad raised again, or some other magic happened.

 

[FrogsFriend]

I think that's going to need a Carrier

 

[Screemonster]

it would be very funny to complete it just for the grief it would inflict upon every mission board in a 15ly radius.

That's pure evil.
So uh... I have done my last delivery. Hope it can serve as a nice surprise for the lad.

In the era of SCO that's like nothing.

Consider that much longer distances were covered with significantly more stuff being trucked before any SCO or even any fleet carriers.

Really wish we get a new large hauler as the next SCO-efficient ship. It would have no problems reaching these far stations.

Maybe a Type-9b. Like a Type-8 but large sized.

Just jump your fleet carrier to the planet the colonization ship is orbiting. Problem solved.

Just a warm welcome to the newbies, I guess.
I also found such ship in Diaguandri, even tho the system is already occupied, not sure if the ship is intended or something.

Have you considered that they wanted the claim to expire to go with another faction or primary port?

No I did not active the port (and potentially spoil the first-time-excitement fun). I left 69 tons of water undelivered so they can still make a choice, either do the honor then the port will be active, or do nothing and let the claim continue to expire.
I'm very thoughtful... you see?
But... I don't really know what has happened after my last delivery. My network has gone so bad it is difficult for me to connect, so

 

[Astrometer]

Just keep hauling.

I would have considered it. Then I would have filled it completely up. There's a fine line between naughty and nice

Same, but for ICZ RY-R b4-5

Although for me I've already done the primary port and now being horrified at the sheer volume needed for an Orbis!

Panther
Clipper

Accept no substitutes.

Orbis/planetary tier 3 port requires circa 60 hours of hauling each. No small commitment.

The majority of players don't have fleet carriers. It only costs 25 million to stake a claim.
