Could the second number be the perpendicular distance to the direct line between Merope and Col 70 Sector FY-N c21-3?

Sorry for not checking. I'm on phone only and will be for days.

I don't think so. I was just thinking about the 2nd number, and how it's odd that for set 1 & 2 it doesn't change at all, but the distances from Merope and Col 70 both increase. For this to be the case if it's a fixed point, the resulting coordinates for sets 1 and 2 would have to be EXACTLY 27.001 on either side of the fixed point for the 2nd distance. Very puzzling.

It IS the case though, that the distances for Merope and Col 70 are at least in the ballpark for other known locations. For example, HIP 14909 is 111.29 ly from Merope, and 848.7 from Col 70.

Also, I tried using HIP 14909 as the coordinates for the 2nd measurement, and it did not give a workable trilateration result - for whatever that's worth.
 
Away from the game now, but just occurred me that we get 3 UL per room and 3 messages from the Device. Also, one UL only respond to a concrete message reproduced, so maybe we need to take the 3 UL from any room and try them each in space with the messages from the machine.

Just repeating this method, has worked twice for me so far:

Pleiades sector kc-u b3-1 , planet 8

Fly into the frame of reference (where the planet shows as your current location), slow down a bit an loop round until a USS appears

If it is not Degraded Signal source (threat 2) then head away from planet into Deep Space, and repeat.


I think leaving the planet's frame of reference resets the RNG roll. First attempt got one after 5 or so tries, second attempt got it after 2 tries.

Theories on having to be at a set distantce seem to be bunk - first spawned at 28Mm, 2nd at 13Mm.

Hope that helps, although maybe I'm just lucky.

You must have either be extremely lucky or I'm immune to aliens. I tried that for 2 hours, got total TWO of degraded SS and no anomalies.

That said I was not interdicted even ONCE after about 300 hours played from the moment they started (2,8k hours or so total)

They just seem to ignore me entirely.

I got mine from a threat 2 degraded as.
 
I went to the Alien Crash site in HIP 17862 i got all three artifacts with me. After approaching the crash site you hear the sound from the alien ship but while sitting in my anaconda i heard a second signal coming from my UL in my inventory.

I'm here ;)

Was planing on sciencing stuff but got buggered.

If one can hand me a set of recordings I'll gladly chew them up tomorrow,
I have a day off with some free time. I have still all my notes from the UP,
so it should be rather easy.

Here some recordings: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?p=5666380&viewfull=1#post5666380
And Here what CMDR Starke decoded: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?p=5666959&viewfull=1#post5666959
And a possible interpratation: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?p=5667114&viewfull=1#post5667114

What we need to find is the meaning of these 3 sets of 3 number (ratios) we found, similar to those from the UP. They could pinpoint a location...

Ok - so here's what I get:

Set 1 (old)
Distance Merope: 136.749
Distance ???: 27.001
Distance Col 70: 836.16

Set 2 (mid)
Distance Merope: 125.424
Distance ???: 27.001
Col 70: 823.095

Set 3 (new)
Distance Merope: 131.521
Distance ???: 34.84
Distance Col 70: 816.127

Using 871 as the distance from Merope to Col 70.

Hmm also if those distances are correct they are all within/close to the UA shell right? I guess this is what they were looking for then, more crash sites? Maybe the shell was looking for something within it's wall thickness rather than in its sphere and using merope as a reference point, just like these coords.

New combination tried:

Tablet, Relic, Orb

BOOM baby!

I think it is safe to say whatever Gaurdian artefacts and combinations goes in makes the machine spirit inside this place very angry...

Nothing else left to try except, maybe... UA + Relic + UP?

I went to the alien ship crash site where you obtain UA in HIP 17862. I got all three artifacts with me. After approaching crash site you hear the alien ship noise. While sitting in my anaconda i heard a second sound coming from my UL (still in my inventory). Unfortunately i cant post links to my recorded sound file :( because of mods

Edit: Nevermind seems every Artifact doing that.

Possible Solution to the UA UL UP Usage

Ok so this shows the UA UL and UP.
Look at the bottom circle. Looks alot like our radar screen in ship.

When you put a UL in space and play the unknown devices signal, It reacts.
I WOULD BET!!! Tinfoil hat time, That if 3 people, each with the unknown devices signal, do the following that something cool would happen.
One player takes the UA to the system indicated by the map on the right and line up with it. The Second player takes the UP to the system indicated by the map on the right and line up with it. The third player sits some where in between in the galaxy, between the systems those two players are at. All three players at the same time, Play the unknown device's recording to their respective floating unknown parts.
I have a feeling it would then link all 3 up, and the UL would give the directions to the gridlocation on the top of the map.
Obviously going to take a wing to figure this one out.
 
Hmmmm...

You know what, I'll try get a Relic standing upright under it - may even act like a prism! ^^

Ancient Relics seem to like standing upright on this planet.

Let's just hope it doesn't act lice that beam from independence day and the beam backfires into it's source and destroys the whole thargoid site. Actually, let's hope that happens.

You are right.
 
I followed the Hip 16378 Listening Post to Bhadaba.

The was another listening post there with the:
"I've found something big..." spiel
But I think that one is the first in the chain leading to HIP 16378.

The only clue is the distress call he talks about in orbit of HIP 16378 3B.
I've flown over the planet in OC at between 50-80km but nothing so far.

Cheers bud I'll try that tomoz...turned it off now...getting mightily annoyed.
