Flying spaceship....drinking gin...tunes on...then passed out at the controls, adrift

[TiberiusDuval]

Once I did one those money making passanger runs with my Clipper. And managed to pass out. When I woke up, well ship has flied half a light year and message log told that my desperate passangers had jumped out with escape capsules

Tea with milk... thats like a kipper with whipped cream. I hope they never gonna dig up this civilization

Tea with strawberry jam....

Tea with strawberry jam....

Now that is something I can get my head around. But milk...

 

[LordFerret]

Ok... well.....

Sipping rum, is a weekend thing for me. Just to test and appraise the product; you understand.

I too, have found, that keeping one eye closed, helps, with the damage reduction, of my spaceships. That said. When I log back in, after such sessions. I find that my ship is docked, at locations, I have no memory of travelling too and for reasons, I have no idea, why. Last time, I was inside a rock/station, about 2,500Lys, outside my normal comfort zone; without having any logical reason for being there. Even getting drunk again, to refresh the memory cells, made no difference.

Alcohol is not a good thing, when handling complicated machinery, or making expensive decisions. I brought a Clipper once, almost stripping out my credit account; due to the dreaded drink.

Best spacecraft purchases are always done when drunk

‘arry!? Are you a brewer too? You sound as though you know the art!
Gonna be post roast Sunday dinner on cqc later if anyone fancies an easy target?!
Bloody mining down cubeo in game trying to get prismatic access. Realise part of my bodge up oculus has fallen on the floor. While i’m scraping around looking for it my bully-vulture gets destroyed in station having accidentally pressed launch. At prison with no fuel scoop. Tedious! CQC will lift my spirits. Always fall about laughing at my ineptitude when I’ve had a drink! See you all there!

 

[VR micmacmoc]

Tea. Still my favourite drink. Black, usually earl grey. No sugar.

 

[Asmodeus]

I drink coffee most of the time No sugar and No milk. I like it to taste of Coffee.
The same for tea also.

Ok, but what's the result? How far you get beyond? C'mon, we're missing the most valuable information here.
Don't leave us suspended.

SC Autopilot??

Is it called 'supercruise assist', that's what I meant.

I awoke somewhere near the edge of the galactic arm, while passed out I had traveled in a line from Reorte to Riedquat and beyond...

 

[Leadfoot]

Docking while drunk is the best. Just remember to close one eye. Or both, it doesn't matter much.

Edsel: I think... you're coming in a little high, man.
Zeke: Look, man, if there's one thing I know, it's how to drive while I'm stoned. It's like you know your perspective's f****d so you just let your hands work the controls as if you were straight.

Been there, done that, woke up on strange planets.

Ahh, I'd never heard of this. I can see the option to toggle it on, but the module is physically missing from my ship, and I'm about 30KLy from the bubble and 28KLy from Colonia

It just dawned to me... They should create a module transfer limpet controller and the module rats would be born.

I'm glad there's no such thing as credit transfer limpets or new players would never get out of their Sidewinders .

Yeah, it only arrived with last game update. Actually, it'd be really hand out in the black I think. You won't be jumped, so could same you all the tedium.

lmao this happend to me a few days ago, i was on a trip to Hutton orbital, the Moment i passed out i was like 30min on the target, the Moment i did woke up i was around 2hours away, i did manage to reach Hutton orbital with my main fuel tank 100% empty and with the thin bar on 5%!!! really lucky but the whole moment/event was really funny

Tea or coffee myself when at the sticks. Drinking some spirits can be nice when playing but it also makes me boost into the back of stations too regularly or makes me go “what if THIS black hole is a worm hole to Raxxla? Let’s find out!!”
