The Quest To Find Raxxla

[[PS4] Filthymick420]

Nicely spotted!
So if Triton is the first part of the puzzle, how do we get the permit??
I have long suspected that FD are using permits to 1) slow us down and 2) highlight systems.

I read somewhere once that mother gaia has put the permit lock there. ( Clearly not fdev as everyone thinks lol jk). Maybe somehow from then you could get it? Im going to look for the source for this.


Edit: first result...
Triton was first discovered by the British astronomer William Lassell on 10 October 1846, just 17 days after Neptune was discovered by the German astronomer Johann Gottfried Galle and Heinrich Louis d'Arrest. Triton is permit-locked by the minor faction Mother Gaia.

But I’ve been allied with Mother Gaia for a while & not been offered it. There must be something in addition, perhaps Fed ranking?

Sure, ping me here and we shall meet... I'll try to make a video out of it so Vetinari can find his way there.

But when you drop down out of SC there are no asteroids visible or on the scanner?

Here, give it a go.

Strange thing, as I dropped into the 'hidden' belt a Search and Rescue anaconda appeared. And kept insisting on keeping me safe, circling me at ~2km. I moved and it moved with me.
It stayed for about 7-8 minutes or so.
I did not notice anything else peculiar with it though. No communication in local.

EDIT: Ehm, while writing this post; 7-10 minutes after the Conda jumped out another Search & Rescue appeared. This time an ASP. Is this normal?
I've been idling in space in quite many times & locations, but never been randomly visited by Search & Rescue like this.
Perhaps it's new due to the system status in Sol. Hm alright.

I had the same S&R ship behaviour when I was looking for Cupid & Bellinda in the roid belts at Uranus. Sol is definitely looking a little peculiar.

You can target the asteroids between Mars and Jupiter

Spoiler

First mark them as a favorite, and from the favorite trace route.

Any volunteers to get in there?

This jogs my memory-asteroid belt appearing inside the sun - it's the same bug I reported 3 or 4 years ago!!

mmm, major bug in Sol, humanity's birthplace & they haven't fixed a major bug in the system in 3-4 years??
Something is smelling very fishy!;
& no, I don't have a cargo hold at the moment!

The point is that as we cannot target it, we're most likely dropping on the Asteroid Belt "Region", not at the center of it... and as I wrote before, the area is a disc about 600ls in diameter... so, quite a big area to cover... x3 because I found at least 3 of these Asteroid Belt locations.

Ah yes, I agree, a huge area to search even if we stood a chance of finding it (which I currently doubt until we've reached some unknown threshold);
however I misunderstood what your previous post - I thought you had found a rock there!

Agree. And it seems that the innermost part (closer to mars orbit) appears to give better hits and show the cluster-icon.
However if all the belts appear inside the sun, while having a location out in the belt I suspect it's still bugged.
There's a big chance the triggers (if any) for 'stuff' is also linked to the bugged state inside the Sun.

 

[Koben]

I guess having the "target" point inside the Sun was a way FD found to prevent us from using the feature "target to drop"... requiring us to manually search for whatever is inside.

Been allied for ages (1-2 years), nothing out of the ordinary. Had a good nice personal mission yesterday, seek out a strange signal over at 90482 Orcus.

Scanned a beacon at an outpost and received a followup mission (by the Federal Congress) to kill a particular elite pirate in another system, ~7mill credit.
Nice short story, I did like the format of it however these mission comes at a regular pace it seems.

 

[[PS4] Filthymick420]

And/or it could have been fixed by now. Go have a look, perhaps there's something new to find. o7

I guess it was a bust. In fixing it they must have just removed the server bank.

Crash site

Comms

Unless this text is relevant in some way im missing (which is why i bothered to post it tbh) ?

 

[[PS4] Filthymick420]

Just noticed this, under notable signals it has 'other'

Or is that just my crash site?

Should be your crash site, yes.

 

[Koben]

I guess it was relevant in the past trying to guide you to the 29 barnacles...

 

[John Stoutbeard]

Yeah, many of the tip-offs back then was to provide a story pre Thargoids & barnacle hunting I guess. So nice to have the hindsight a few years later.
It doesn't mean they are irrelevant today, perhaps we just need to discover the right one's.
It could very well be that more clues are delivered this way but it's hard to sift through it with all the previous stories.

 

[John Stoutbeard]

I'll keep on working with scoring brownie points with the factions in Sol.

My reputation must have preceded me. That's why you're contacting me out in deep-space in Sol, 480,000 LS from the Sun, correct?
I'm the right Cmdr for the job.
Cummings, afterwards, perhaps you could share with me some more insider information or secrets surrounding Raxxla?

Have you noticed that the "IPv4 Address" on the top of you DBX cockpit frame does not fit a regular IPv4 address:

 

[alexzk]

/tinfoil ON
There are 2 crashes near by each other on Mercury. However, when I tried to fly close they started "tresspassing" ...
anybody knows what is there?
/tinfoil OFF

/tinfoil ON

/tinfoil OFF

POI by design, 100% normal behavior in most inhabited systems.

I havent noticed that before. And, apologies, idk what it means. I used to have a vape mod that was an ipv4 and that is an amazing coincidence, which i tend not to believe in. What does that mean about the ipv4 address?
