is there a master list of rift locations?
So you want to know about the Formidine Rift? (Part 3)
- Thread starter Legacy_LuckyLuke
- Start date
Head out to this system: EAFOTS GL-Y E2
And planet # 6 is where the last Delta site is... somewhere...
(This is what we are all hunting for in the Rift at least)
See you out there!
Yep, already on it
sticking to the light side of the planet for now combing over crevices and craters.... Npc's love craters in this game i have noticed! I'm on PC in Mobius PVE, hopefully someone else is out here aswell in Mobius and not wrapped up in them ruins
this is a lot more interesting! Getting lonely out here haha 
On xbox, loading times change when you are within 1Mm of the facility, so I'm SCing every 500km and dropping out until I detect a longer loading time.
I'm also going down the latitude, starting from 0,0, then 10 degrees to the right every time I do a full loop

Ill try, but despite getting better with co-ordinates im liable to fly off course! Currently at a large crater at:
-35.1134 / -151.9711
Ill have a good scout.
I hate to add to the latitude longitude issues, but how does our nav computers select the reference longitude? On the earth, the prime meridian passes through Greenwich, England for 0° longitude.
The spin of a planet can give you a standard north and south.

I'm out there on a 2nd account (CMDR Reaver One) but I'm in Open.
Not much point flying in a PG so far out, you would only run into other explorers!
I'm assuming everyone else is also searching in open?

With 120kly worth of exploration data on board, I do fear of gankers...
Yeah i don't want to risk it, i haven't died this far out before. I take you you re spawn back at the last space station you came from?. Mine was back in Diaguandri kitting out my asp with all lightweight gear for the better jump range, and AFM's in case i damage something due to gravity lol.
Im glad someone mentioned this. You get a slight delay once hitting glide, if there is something to render.
Can't say I have noticed this on PC, but will test it out.
Of course thanks to cmdr Zach- here:

Every blue POI I have come across has amounted to nothing, and I have seen at least 15 or so.
Sorry, not "nothing", but meant not related to the settlements.

Guys, I have also done some math.
To cover 0.0010 degrees in a straight direction (0 degrees, 90 degrees, etc) you will need to be at almost precisely 125m/s (125 in normal space flight)
That means every full 1.0000 degree covers 125km. I'm covering 5.0000 degrees with every gliding jump so I'm popping in every 675km. The facility should attempt to load within a radius of 1,000km (or 1Mm ingame) so if I or anyone here detects a longer loading time they are at least 1,000km away from the facility in any direction.
Just a thing for you guys to consider
Edit: this is on GL-Y E2 6, by the way. That also means 1,000km is a full 8.0000 degrees in long/lat

Perhaps this is an old observation already accounted for, but has anyone else noticed / observed that at the -23y mark there appears to be large patches of T and Y stars? Around the rift, yes, but other places as well. Is it just a matter of the co-ordinate system originating at Sol, which is above the galactic plane slightly?
It's instant anywhere else, except the bubble. I noticed it when I went to the alpha base, I forced dropped out of sc 30km above and there was a 5-8 second delay, same at the other sites. Dropping in on random spots it's pretty much instant but only outside the bubble, which it also happens on PC for me and on Xbox.
Anybody out here on Xbox atm on open?? Man it's lonely
