Came across a degraded transmission threat lvl 3 USS in Maia heading toward the black hole. Dropped in and found a Relic AI floating about. Headed toward it and boom, the feds warped in and blew my ass to kingdom come including my UA in my hold. In my mind that adds to the possibility that having both the AI and the UA or UP in your hold might help matters. Or they might actually merge in the cargo hold. Yup tinfoil hat stuff but what the hell.

Actually the three together would make sense. I've had a quick gander at the completed test and it isn't on there as having been tried.

Does anyone know where we left off with the audio that came from infected/ua bombed stations?

I have this sgram I got from somewhere (is it even real? it looks so much like handwriting, if its not fake or just a test image then it's meant to be from a human character in the game):

It was supposed to be taken from station sounds, either in the hangar or outside in the back. But I'm not sure if there was more about that or we just gave up on it.

Merope 5C is definately bugged. I am using a simple assumtion from the UP diagram that comes up with the co-ordinates 90.125 x 65.030. However, having reached VERY close to those co-ordinates a little off the surface the x and y co-ordinates suddenly changed. I reversed to try and get back on track and the game completely crashed. This makes finding stuff on this planet a rather difficult task. Relogging in on solo to see what happens. On a side note I am carrying the UA.

As others pointed out already, more than +/- 90°Lattitude isn´t possible.
So if Your solution gets U that coordinates its in reality 89.875 x 245.030 (-114,97° respectivly) - try that one...

Cool ilo! Already added to the spreadsheet.
THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING! or it's just random like it always has been

random or not - at least it leads to the conclusion that the theories Feds would produce/farm UP somewhere seems to be obsolete -
if other factions (at which costs ?) have access too, concludes they can be collected somewhere - free-floating or surface-bound.

Dear human, can you check what happens if you change sensor scale type from log to linear on the right panel in ship functions and scan UP? Does spectrograph change?

Nowt. :(

One thing though. just spotted that UAs and UPs do not degrade on a planet/moons surface, they only degrade in space. (at least around the barnacle when I was mucking about, can be seen here when I collect the UP)

Was it always like this?

I'm sure UAs at least used to degrade on planets.

It's the same for all cargo. Only things jetisoned from a ship degrades.

If it commes out of a ship, it degrades. Even on a planet.

P. S. I'm keen on that nav beacon test. They do after all send out the same information as the discovery scanner.

Guys, I am in a funny situation just now - and don´t know if it has to do with the whole thing at all, but thought i share so everybody can decide for themselves.
Landed in BYAA THEIA SZ-P D5-13 4b which is a moon of Merope 5C Type, orbiting a World with Ammonia-based lifeforms.
Put the ship down at -20,5606° / 43,7267 on a ridge between a gorgeous crater and a deep gorge. Everthing OK, a bit tricky to align,but no probs. Some 1,5 Km in direction to the gorge i found a shipwreck (nothing spawned)



So I drove on and my ship (as I exceeded the 2 Km radius) went to Orbit.
Later, upon recalling it, the ship neither deploys landing gear nor orientates correctly, it seems for the Onboard-Computer X- & Z-Axis are tilted -90°.
Tried 12 respawns already, going down the crater now and try again - after that its a 1,5 Km jump into the gorge....

Ammonia World, normal spectrograph. :(

We should definitely keep more notes about all this as this gets totally forgotten in posts.


So have you tried honking and not releasing it and jumping anywhere? Just to test "charged UP" theory. Maybe just releasing also UP after jump to see whether charge stayed.

I believe that charging does not require UA for it.
