If the duplicate gave different data I'd agree. But why use the CG to give us a site we already have?


perhaps just a bit of backfill by Fdev to overlay the open bug that gave us more data than we should have got, so they gave us the other ruin site to "catch up" once all current 4 are found i think we can move onto the new elements of the guardian ruins

Yup. Considering the enormity of this CG and the effort involved in finding the ruins, *and* the fact the Open/PG thing is still all bugged to hell, to put an exact duplicate set of ruins is just daft.

EDIT: And if the reason is to increase the chances of us finding the ruins, just do what's needed already and give us ingame tools to locate this kinda thing, like I've suggested ever since UAs got discovered...

Great finds. Ruin 3 looks great.

We have some patterns:

- Orbits red dwarf
- Latitude is close to -30°
- Has a moon.

Unfortunately non to the two remaining systems have a planet with these properties. Most likely the red dwarf is not relevant.

Ruin 2 and Ruin 3 has a planet tilt (total orbital inclination + Axial tilt) of approximately 30° as well.

R2 has OI of -26.6 and 0,15 and AT of 58.28. Giving a planet tilt of 31.38°

R3 has OI of -12.87 and 0.02 and AT of 42.1. Giving a planet tilt of 29.25°

R1 does not quite fit. It has a planet tilt of 95.45°. However, it has a Ruin bearing of about 65°. If this is to correct the weird tilt, we get approximately 30.45°.

R2 and R3 have longitude nicely placed close to the 30° intervals (-30.51 and -59.54). R1 is a bit far of the 120° mark at -128.97°.

So looks like moons are very important.
Almost same planet tilt... it's interesting but why?

The obvious questions...
- is the glowing pattern on the obelisks the same?
- is the pattern on the pylon base the same?

But this does look to be a much simpler site than the first ruins.
 
I do not agree.

IMHO, it's not a bug at all.
There are different instances of the same sites around, to raise the chances to find them.

What I mean is: there are 3 unique different layouts to find, but there are different instances of them scattered around the area.
either this, and then we still have to discover how to re-activate the obelisks in solo to get the full set of messages from each site (e.g. 8-15) in site1&2, or they are different instances which should provide 13 messages (but different ones from each copy) each, in which case there is a problem as site 1 & 2 provide the same messages in solo.
 
This is totem cluster

of the two defaults
Inner one (left one on my screenie) is tot - rel, gives cult 1/20
Outer one cant find a match its tot but couldn't find a secondary.

Gratz CMDR Khenistry!

I'm thinking the other sites will be like sites 1-2, and this is some sort of "network hub" or master site, perhaps.

Stuck at work today, and I have IRL stuff to take care of tonight, so will only have a couple of hours to bore you all with my moon waffle later!

Hmmmm, moon waffles...
 
1. I presume people are now going to stop having hissy fits over two sites being the same, despite having zero information why, and just assuming laziness (despite there being thousands of identical human ground ports).

2. This site seems much less distinct that the other two, with the walls being 'softer' and more blended.

If you bothered to read the 'hissy fits' it wasn't about the layout of the ruins. Everyone accepts that buildings look the same. The issue was that the erosion was identical and the same bugs were occuring.
 


Erm update what ?
Has the site been mapped and assigned cluster letters and obelisk numbers as a standard ?

- - - Updated - - -

Guarantee you it's not the only Totem cluster. There's three on the opposite side on the ruins, shared with an orb cluster.

Well the only two that light up in the cluster I showed in the screenie are both Totem. Hard to guarantee if none of the others light up :)

Ahh yes thats for sure I see what ya mean now
Same as site one has 4 casket clusters
Yes yes was just saying this is a totem cluster :)

Taken from measurements from my cockpit with the degree HUD, and this is what I got while scouring -30 -90 on Planet 1 in Synuefe ZL-J d10-119: (see post, here)

300 degrees: IC 2391 Sector ZE-A d101

298 degrees: IC 2391 Sector GW-V b2-4

313 degrees: Synuefe XO-P c22-17

315 degrees: Synuefe XR-H D11-102

100 degrees: Synuefe ZL-J d10-119 Star (measured from centre)

65 degrees: Barnard's Loop (measured from centre)
