A few of us on here have been working to increase TDWs influence in lft 926 but to no avail. It's be huge if we could work together on this to give TDW control in this system. Perhaps they would show their appreciation.
The Quest To Find Raxxla
- Thread starter Macros Black
- Start date
Several months ago, i got allied with TDW by participating in a war in LFT 926, which they were fighting against the Green Party. I dont know much about BGS, but TDW controlled a few stations and outposts in system at that time (sadly, i think they lost their grip on these). IIRC, they even had the highest influence at the time but were not the controlling faction (was War, not Civil War, the latter of which i think determines controlling faction). Not sure if any of this is useful, but i am surprised to see that they seem to have lost progress in that system since.

Sorry for questioning again, but I just want to make sure I'm following you correctly. Are you saying you:
1. Entered the system
2. Honked
3. Entered the FSS mode
4. Searched for bodies in the FSS mode until there were no signals showing on the signal bar
5. Got the System Scan Complete message
6. Could see the number of bodies scanned as 100%
7. Flew out to a distant body
8. Honked again
9. Got a message saying that more bodies had been detected
10. Entered FSS mode again, and saw a new set of signals on the signal bar
11. Searched for bodies in the FSS mode again until here were no signals showing on the signal bar
12. Got the System Scan Complete message again
What happened to the % of bodies scanned at 10? Did it change down from the previous 100%?
With apologies again - just trying to make absolutely sure that nothing else is going before we get excited and/or start suggesting bug reports.
For reference I've just checked my FSS scan history, and I have detected bodies at more than 550kls (not many though).
Possibly but if you’ve not been able to increase its influence then maybe the developers locked it down for a reason?
I play on pc, that is my platform.
That is one good question...
From what i recall in one case it didnt gave me that, cause when i tried to scan the last planet that was missing the FSS bugged out (that turn the image stuff), and i went all the way, wich was a good thing since was what made me realize that this was possible.
The other times it did say "system scan complete", doe it turned out it wasnt...
Well, like i just answered to another post here, the 1st time this happened to me was during the time we had that awfull bug with the FSS going sideways and didnt let u scan the systems, and that was how i ended up finding that this happened, cause i from that event onwards everytime i see a sun or planet that distant i tend to fly there to check if there isnt anything else, on some i end up finding new things, in others i get bumped cause there is nothing there...
As the percentage goes, that i recall it readjusted, but i cant say with 100% certainty since i wasnt really paying attention to those finner details.
I need to go to my pc log in and check what is in the history of what i did so far, but last trip i did and found this events, was to the left of the bubble, went 10k out before coming back in always on economical planning and i didnt saw that many, so far i got 7 situations like this that i found.
But i have found alot of systems where the system was discovered already by someone, and mapped and still i use the FSS and find new stuff, reason may just be that those systems were visited before the FSS was introduced? So older discoveries and somehow something failed when they switched over but i cant tell ive been playing since January so i only know the FSS and nothing else.
Well light can travel through the worm hole can’t it? Therefore if you go through it at sub light speed and light is also going through it then technically you’ve not gotten there quicker than light as light also went though it and just so happened to do it first
If you want to get really technical, I don't think there is a distance to travel in a worm hole. Speed is needed to get to the worm hole but once you are there, you are on the other side.

How stable/fast is your network connection?
With the ADS and my shonky download speed I'd occasionally get incomplete responses from the initial honk. A second honk would show up additional bodies that the first didn't. I knew when it occurred because it took an unusually long time to return the results from the initial honk.
Mindblowing.
I just love "science-tinfoiling" !
Now, what if I use a Frame Shift Drive inside a wormhole ?

I have posted a question in Drew Wagar's q&a thread pertaining to our only known confirmation of raxxla, and the fact that the original version of David Braben's quote actually read:
"It exists, we know where it is and we know why people haven't been able to find it..."
I find this to be significantly different from "it's out there and we (FD) know where it is"
Take a look here, hopefully we get a response:

Drew, I noticed that the only real confirmation of Raxxla comes from your mouth. The only current reference to this comes from Canonn's article here: https://canonn.science/lore/drewwagar-raxxla/ Of note, the wording here is: “It’s out there and we (FD) know where it is.” However, i know that...
I got fiber at my house 100mb/s no issues with it so far.
Have you raised this in a bug report? It just might be unintended!
Yep essentially teleportationIf you want to get really technical, I don't think there is a distance to travel in a worm hole. Speed is needed to get to the worm hole but once you are there, you are on the other side.
This is to be expected (we discussed this topic earlier in the thread). A rogue planet is one not bound gravitationally to any other body, therefore it will be on its lonesome. ED fsd requires a star to jump to, therefore if rogue planets exist in-game then they must be classed as a star type otherwise you would never be able to reach them, effectively putting them outside the game....
If they are to be found in-game they should appear as very low-mass systems, so will probably have a system designation something like Sectorname XX-X A?, since A type systems have the lowest mass.
Nope didnt.
I will check to see if i find another of this situations, im out atm exploring so if i come across one of this again ill check to see if i got it again and try to document it.
I could understand this happening if there was a server-side problem at FD, possibly exacerbated by an internet problem. Of course the bugged fss was very unreliable so it might have related to that. I suggest keeping an eye open for it & if it happens again then definitely raise a bug report; FD’s response to these is sometimes of interest! It may be that there is a 500kls detection limit inherent in the fss design; whether that is intentional or not would be the interesting bit!
Rogue planets having to be referenced as "stars" to make possible to jump at. Actually, are they ?
