COMPLETED CG Rare Goods Required for Galactic Summit

[Cmdr. Numa]

Hmm... given the fact that you can only purchase a limited supply of those items per run I wonder what the most efficient circle would be including all stops (with start/finish being Luyten’s Star)...

The best route excludes Gerasian Gueuze Beer, unless you want to fly 1 million light seconds every time.

Hell no, I'm not doing that.

If the initiative is successful, Sirius Corporation will make the fully engineered long range fast boot size 5 Frame Shift Drive available for purchase at all human technology brokers.​

​

What experimental effect will this come with, if any?

None, but you can fit any you wish. Mass Manager for the best range, probably thermal spread for a few ships that can't handle the additional heat.

Tbh with a refresh of just 10 mins I think the most efficient route would be just Lave and dropoff.*

Setup an AspX that'll haul 48t with good jump range and you should be able to do it A>B>A fairly well.

FC's open it up a bit more as we can farm 60t/ 10m and store it ready to drop off at our leisure.

*this could change depending on BGS changes affecting allocation amounts.

Thanks! You just answered my second question. o7

What's the optimal cargo hold size assuming you skip Geras?

Thanks

 

[Der Zeitgeist]

Can someone explain the significance of the double engineering on that FSD? How much additional range will this give us?

 

[aRJay]

Thanks

130 tonnes based on the quantities in the first post, 190 if you include Geras.

124t, krait size.

but any optimum might change with next states tick ~90 minutes from now.

Does this mean that if the CG is successful, the double-engineered FSD will be made available permanently for all players through the Tech Broker, even to those who don't take part in this CG?

yes

Im going to configure my Python with 210t and 35ly range laden, that should do and is the least refitting I need to do on any of my ships.

Yes.

Does this mean the drive will be available to purchase, albeit at full price, even to those who didn't take part in the CG?

Fast boot gives +15% optimal mass, increased range gives +55% optimal mass, and an additional Mass Manager experimental can add another +4% for a total of +74%

 

[TrollhunterX]

yes

Er, that's what I was going to ask. Good thing I didn't....

 

[goemon]

Can someone explain the significance of the double engineering on that FSD? How much additional range will this give us?

jumprange depends on ships total mass (+ cargo and fuel in tank) - and the fsd "optimal mass" (+special effect).

so there is no fixed "additional range", but this fsd fitted with additional added special effect gives 15% range above a current "normal" G5 fsd + special.

if the CG reaches tier 1 afaik (tier 1 = successfull)

 

[Nordmarken]

How much faster is the fast boot? Have to decide if its worth travelling 23k ly just to have a shot at this.

48t atm.

35ly range doing a full loop minus Geras is over 20 jumps, not even taking into account the extra mass as you fill up.

I do think it would be nice if all commodities had their own counters to encourage actually doing a loop, but as things stand an ABA loop is the most efficient.

An AspX/Phantom can carry 48t and unladen ahould be able to reach 65ly range. I estimate 2 jumps out, 3/4 back for 48t per loop.
