Hutton orbital?

Calebe · Mar 27, 2016

Been to Hutton a few times in my Python for the CG, and enjoyed the voyage. It didn't seem to take all that long, and was a very relaxing trip each time. Just set the course and let her fly and enjoy the solitude, and the enormity of space. It is a trip each person should make at least once, just to say you did it.

Didn't log off properly and left to do some other stuff. I thought I'd logged off about 5 mins from Hutton but I hadn't. Luckily I had enough fuel to jump to the next star.

If you ever need help Fuel Rats are always on the job

Haven't visited for a while. Did they ever fix cubicle 3?

They got an engineer in to fix it, but he thought to himself "a black hole is far more efficent at waste disposal" so installed a mini-one.
After 3 cmdrs disappeared, thats when they locked the toilets and put up that "Beware of the tiger" sign.

<<really should of checked if he was taking his medication or the ship's cat's medication this morning [yesnod]

Ahhh, that embarrassing moment when you've just jumped out of Proxima and notice the cat has drunk all your gin and recycled it into your mug.

Reminds me, I've not taken my newest ship out there yet. She'll be getting jealous if I don't take her soon...

Aha! Thank you! I *knew* my Asp was moaning at me for a reason.

Hutton doesn't need fixing, after all even Trap 3 is vaguely not-entriely-broken thanks to a certain person who is missing his Python right now, please help him find it . . . for the mug!

They are likely not deselecting the station for most of it.

Pff yeah, who DOESN'T know about that?!

[SUB] -> That really would've been nice to know when I participated in the CG xD[/SUB]

Take your stinking paws off my Mug, you damed dirty ape!

The ludicrous supercruise travel time is what gives Hutton Orbital (and some other places) its distinct charm.

Remove that, and it will become just yet another unremarkable outpost in a yet another unremarkable system.

If someone cannot bear travelling to Hutton, its not like it is the only destination around... There are hundreds of thousands of stations and outposts.

Even if drives become available to jump to different stars in a system, we will find away to break it so you still have to do the full trip.

We would blow up the star or move it .44ly away.

Don't think the OP is getting a lot of support...

knowles2 · Mar 27, 2016

Not a bug and certainly not one most people want to see fixed.

Infidel Deity · Mar 28, 2016

If I want to try the trip to Hutton, in my Cobra Mk III; do I need to have an extra fuel tank?

Thank you!

As far as I remember the Cobra should be fine. If you're worried you can turn off all unnecessary modules to improve your fuel economy

I have played this game for more than a year, and still have not found the courage to take the trip...
It is on my to-do list though

..one day..

Wylie28 · Mar 28, 2016

if your to-do list is anything like mine in a year it will 3x farther down the list than it is right now

Tell you what. I notice you are not Elite in exploration rank.... go exploring and bring 10M of data to Hutton Orbital and the team here will send you (as we have with a couple of hundred others) a Hutton Orbital Truckers Flight Patch #forthemug

Kill two birds with one stone.
