Not possible to reach one system from another in Super Cruise.
You cannot exit a system's instance unless you FSD.

Not possible to reach one system from another in Super Cruise.

The game only loads one system at a time. If you supercruise out of the system at 2000C you find - Nothingness. coz it hasn't been loaded. Yes its been tried - many times. The witchspace screen acts as a sort of loading screen while the game loads the next system.
Maybe the purrs are a serial number - in which case they would be a random looking sequence of numbers and letters, only the last few would change on different UAs.
Just for instance - here is the serial number of a hard drive I have on my bench "5LA3BBXJ" if we found a sequence like that in the purrs, we would discard it as rubbish....
Right so this test was all about the purrs so how many in each test?

Um I didn't do your test because the repeat as wing man wasn't that clear as I don't know if you meant that I don't drop the UA or if I swap positions.

true but i was working on the basis that....the ua knows where it is as it is recieving planet information as morse but that needs to corrolate with another planet(or star) name built into it before anything happens. Now a lot of the star system names are very like that and maybe i gave up too early.
I do think there is another location name in a different form in the sound.
A question for the clever audio decoding/morse people.
Is there an unknown sequence that could be an ID code?
It would be probably alphanumeric - unknown length - The first few digits would be the same on each UA, and the last few would be incremented by an unknown amount.
For instance - one UA might say GR6J8KD4G, another might say GR6J8KF2Y, and yet another might say GR6J8KJ2B etc.....Note that these examples are, of course, invented.

I had some time and checked my theory again. The "microphones" on top of the tower seem to emit the sound. If you are really close to them you also hear the purrs. I am really convinced now that these things on the Towers on civilian outposts make a sound very similar to the ones the UA makes. I would be really happy if someone could confirm this.
I've heard the usual 5 in each test. Always. I'm still waiting for a test with 5 CMDRs at least, in the same instance, close to the UA...
Better if with hafnium in their holds, all of them. Like in the Sleipnir recording.
Good job, Ratking15 and Nirleb! As usual!
that's a bit vague!! what do you mean by different?
5? I thought the usual was 6? Also it will be hard to get that group together again due to some people being currently unavialble.
Thanks to your effort, it is very interesting to note, how much Azaleach is OFF COURSE, compared to the tour route... we should really ask to ourselves the reason of that detour.
I cannot access the game: has Azaleach a particular System description? Is there perhaps some military base? Some important scientific outpost?
What I think is that the Starship One perhaps found an UA, and was taking it to some place there for further analisys.
Or someone found it in Azaleach, and they called the President to go there urgently, to take a look. The president then took the UA on his ship.

6 if you count the one that overlaps to the howl. So yes 6. I usually count just the isolated ones, so 5.
yes - this. The UA was in a smaller ship. The ship docked in the presidents capital ship's docking bay. The UA ate its way out of the smaller ship and attempted to warp away. Explosion.
A good deal of the investigation into the route Spaceship One took when UA's were done was before the discovery of the pseudomorse. While it's definitely not certain, there's a not unreasonable chance that, given nobody would've had reason to pay *close* attention to the chittering during those studies, that something could've been overlooked.
The president then took the UA on her ship. Former president was Jasmina Halsey

For example
Bast is the name of the star
the planet orbiting it is THFC-EST 1882 (a planet name after Tottenham, all I can say if there isn't one named Arsenal I'm not playing any lonnger lol)
Surya is another one where all the planets are named Surya except one is named Arka.

I'm not sure what you mean. I mean, Jupiter is completely different from Mercury, but I don't think that's weird.
While waiting for a refit over in Maridal, I thumbed through the latest copy of Tinfoil Digest. What can I say? I like the film reviews. Anyway, there was one interesting letter to the editor I thought I'd share in case anybody missed it.
Dear Sir,
I was appalled to read that slackwit Professor Blasty Shoot-Shoot's recent article 'proving' the theoretical enhanced muon accelerator to be the greatest threat to humanity since the advent of idiocy. Any fool could plainly tell you what I will plainly tell you: the frameshift drive is far worse.
From the Farraguts to the Sidewinders, from vast naval fleets to lone pirates, take that away - or, more insidiously, control it with impunity - and the Bubble quickly becomes less a stage for roiling conflict outside of any one party's possible control and more a vulnerable mosaic of solitary, isolated pockets. Economies would collapse, unable to retool swiftly enough to previous centuries' constraints. Untold billions would quickly starve, so reliant have we become upon the modern balance of trade. The phrase A New Dark Age would scarcely do the aftermath justice. And don't get me started on Thargoid invasions!
Surely even so moronic a clod as Shoot-Shoot can see that if a conspiratorial group could wield that kind of technological control, they could hold every other faction to ransom and no number of particle accelerators would make a blind bit of difference.
That control is already openly hardwired into our frameshift drives. Permits can be given automatically; what can be given can be taken and lobbed out the airlock with yesterday's petulant slaves. It is also clearly exhibited in the loss of SS1 and the earlier Antares, as I believe members of the Canonn are endeavouring to prove with their research into the Unknown Artefacts.
What if this new reality of improved frameshift drives which underscores our lives is already being held to ransom? Could BLOODY WELL EVERYBODY'S reluctance to come forward with any information be argued to support this?

Interesting thoughts from good old Mental, perhaps. But surely far too derivative of Dune and all that whoever controls the Spice guff.
So! Anyway! In other news and proper posts...

My hope/connection attempts were as follows:
* Spaceship One was a proper Capital ship with two of the most important people in the galaxy on it & presumably hundreds-thousands of enlisted Feds. You shouldn't just "lose" something that massive w/ that many people on board & not find any wreckage.
* It diverted mid-tour for "classified reasons", which sounds suspicious on it's own. And we're dealing with suspicious Federal convoys trying to sneakily transport unknown/toxic cargo.
* The final report indicated it was the result of a "complex, multi-system failure". What else do we know could produce multiple system failures? The Unknown Artefact, as it eats through systems.
* If you become President (both Winters & Hudson were briefly) & become privy to the knowledge Spaceship One disappeared after taking on a UA, you're going to try everything to bury that story so it doesn't become public knowledge.
* The suspicious "THEY'RE LYING TO YOU" GalNet story about the loss of Spaceship One. Seems pretty heavy-handed/foreshadow-y to me.
* We've been told we've had as many clues (plural) as FDev feel they can give without giving the secret/mystery away. Since the sound hasn't changed much & there haven't been many official forum follow-ups, the only other (main) source for hints would be GalNet.
As for what that has to do with the UA, maybe we haven't seen all of its sounds yet. And the Morse changes based on what the nearest mass body (star / planet / station) is, so maybe it acts as a detector or homing device for "gravitational anomalies" & changes its sound, which is what the Azaleach CG was about.
It's super-tentative & there are problems with it, such as:
* We don't know the route exactly, which makes following the trail problematic.
* We don't know what the jump range of a Capital Ship actually is.
* We don't know what the Starflight One ship composition was (which might provide a maximum jump range).
* We don't know if Starship One reached Azaleach or not.
* This leaves us with a pretty massive area to search + not knowing what we're looking for.
* We have no proof they took on an Unknown Artefact or not. If it was just foul-play (like the previous Fed VP - February GalNet, or the Emperor's assassin-to-be), then the theory is straight out.
