I've got 2 ships upgraded nicely, thought I'd go put a grade 5 fsd, some thrusters and shield update to my asp tonight so I can nip out from the bubble 500ls and back to appease that engie that expects me to.
I got ripped by an Elite NPC cobra en route just before entering the atmosphere (he used at least 6 shield cells??). So my cockpit gets smashed, plenty of hull left, so i did a Sir Robin, just wanted to get the ship sorted and carry on.
7 minutes air left, so I near blindly head for the engie camp, cruise in and have 5 mins left before I suffocate. Nice.
But lol. I was stuck in the transition graphic for 4 mins 30 secs. I come out, my commander starts coughing up his spag bol and just as I request docking, kaboom.
Was FUN trying to fly to a planet outpost with no instruments to help out, a first for me, but omg sort that g lag out on planet transitions!!
Only lost 1.7 on a rebuy and as I just spent the evening taking my time scanning every planet on the way there and handed it in to the outpost next to the planet, I only have to get some more coils and mod terminals in the nearby systems, but no thats probably another 2 evenings of gameplay to track them down on the mission boards.
