LARGEST SEPARATION BETWEEN TWO CONSECUTIVE RINGS
LAGOON SECTOR FW-W D1-73 3 WITH 1,831,429 KM (hope my calculator did not fail me )

Went out to the approximate coordinates of where the third ring should be, didn't see anything, went closer, did get prox and impact warnings, still didn't see anything, then emergency drop and now whenever I try to get out it will instantly 'too close! dropping' put me back into normal space. Hoping I can get out with repeated FSD activations... otherwise I might be doomed.

EDIT: Got out safely. Few percent of hull and module damage was paid for the mishap. The C ring is apparently invisible.

ps. Do we have category for 'most rings in multiring system'? Or are they limited to 2 or 3 rings only so there's kinda no point for that? (I'd nominate this one with three rings as a starting point for sure )

just had the same problem, solved it by switching to solo mode and this way forcing me into another server, stealing my glory patau

Aight I'm in solo mode right now so I'll switch to open then and try again

Also, since it seems WIDEST RING IN MULTIRING is currently empty...

haha, ninja'd!
also added latest records

Kalpa · Feb 1, 2015

Uh-oh, shouldn't have switched between open/solo... hilarity ensues

is that your invisible ring!
had the same problem with the largest non gas ringed planet in the galaxy
popped over on a tourist visit and couldn't see it's ring,
but I did get a proximity alert as I was flying around it so it must be there just not visible to the naked eye!

ah I've got that too, had a look at some systems I scanned last weekend and now they have lots of ghost planets too

I got out earlier already by chain-spamming FSD - I suppose it managed to move me few tens / hundreds of km away with each try and finally dislodged from the impact zone (rings are not very thick after all). I thought you guys meant I'd get the ring visible by switching server, so I tried it for that - didn't help, the ring stays invisible (I even made a short clip about it, though that was before server switch, kinda immediately after I dislodged myself)

Niddi · Feb 1, 2015

Did you ticket it?

Kalpa · Feb 1, 2015

No. Should I have?

Niddi · Feb 1, 2015

Yeah. I'd always report Bugs / Glitches etc.

Kalpa · Feb 1, 2015

Well you just made me make a ticket. I'm so pessimistic about these ever having any impact at all, though. I'd expect them to receive ten thousand tickets every day, 95% of them being "pls reimbusre my ship creidts",and the remaining 500 tickets hard to spot for anything actually useful.

always just when you go to bed you find one

HOTTEST CLASS III GAS GIANT

HD 19529 A 2 WITH A SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF 799k

ALSO FOUND A RECORD NOT BELONGING TO ME

HOTTEST CLASS IV GAS GIANT
HD 193576 AB 3 WITH A SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF 1399K THE RECORD SHOULD BE GRANTED TO CMDR ZENITH DORAIGLAS

Ferris · Feb 1, 2015

ROCKY ICE PLANET WITH THE HIGHEST SURFACE PRESSURE
PENCIL SECTOR GW-W C1-33 A 2 WITH 1,198,649.50 ATM - FERRIS

Addicted to exploration and this thread just makes it worse...

HOTTEST CLASS I GAS GIANT - HR 4771 B 5 - SURFACE TEMP 150K

SMALLEST ROCKY PLANET - HR 4771 B 6 D - RADIUS OF 373KM

having trouble getting them to stay in caps again :-\

Kalpa · Feb 1, 2015

I seem to have found the gas giant central...

Anyway on to the records:

COLDEST WATER GIANT
BLEIA DRYIAE RF-C D14-166 12 WITH A SURFACE TEMPERATURE OF 157K

Also if you care, use values below for closest/farthest from sagittarius a* / sol for this category...

---

Uhh... we apparently have a 'closest / farthest from Sol' for some categories, so let's make this a bit further then...

IMAGE LINK / IMAGE LINK 2

FURTHEST AMMONIA WORLD FROM SOL
BLEIA DRYIAE RF-C D14-166 11 AT 5,318.86LY

And if we're going that way maybe fill out shortest/farthest from Sagittarius A* as well for the same object... although a bit silly because this planet is neither for certain.

IMAGE LINK 3

BLEIA DRYIAE RF-C D14-166 11 AT 20,605.79LY

---

And if you want to fill in the closest/furthest sagittarius A* / sol for TERRAFORMABLES, you might use the previous numbers for

IMAGE LINK
BLEIA DRYIAE RF-C D14-166 10 A

---

Oh dear lord. There's also class I, III, IV gas giants, gas giant with ammonia-based life, whatnot here. None of the categories have recorded sagittarius a* / sol distances. Could update them with these placeholder values but I can't be bothered to post screenshot of any of them. So just omitting them. And could someone exploring the edge of the galaxy please start posting those 'furthest from sagittarius a*' things, so we don't have to watch at empty records all the time - and likewise if anyone is near the center, could start posting 'closest to sagittarius a*' records please?

Kalpa · Feb 2, 2015

Okay one more and I promise to myself and y'all this will be the last, need to sleep sometime too...

unfortunately this one counts as terraformable, will be making changes to this category as promised later today!

Why exactly a such planet cannot be in both categories?

Kalpa said:

You shouldn't be pessimistic as reimburse tickets are a different category of tickets, I believe. However, your ring issue isn't of the highest priority as you could easily jump to another system. I described this issue in Beta3, here and ticketed it, then, but they have obviously more important issues to deal with.
