Elite Dangerous: Odyssey | Update 9 Notes

[HRDiagram]

@sallyrnorganrnoore can I install SLF on the SRV Scoprion? I cant find it in the patchnotes!

 

[taniwha-qf]

Commanders will be required to buy a new Scarab SRV to get the new capacity.

I'm sure I can arrange an accident involving a plasma rifle and an empty SRV

COMMANDERS.
So sorry about this, trying to make sure that every expectation is set and this is one hefty update to pick through!

Updated SRV section to the following:

• Scarab Cargo Bay changed from 2 to 4.
  • PLEASE NOTE | KNOWN ISSUE:
  • Your current Scarab's loadouts won't auto update with the new update applied.
  • Commanders will be required to buy a new Scarab SRV to get the new capacity.

Talking this through on dev side, just keeping you in the loop.

Oh, I can see this backfiring...

 

[Andy_Pipkin]

When I fire up the launcher....huh?
(I asume the patch ain't live yet, and sure enough I haven't updated yet lol)

 

[Agony_Aunt]

Just go everywhere and check data ports as you come across them.
Say, while doing those heist missions

Finished with the heist missions now

Makes sense - I mean the cargo capacity can't miraculously just get bigger. Obviously you'd have to buy the upgraded version with the Acme Matter Compression cargo loader builtin!

I also want to increase the passenger capacity of my car from the old two-person model to the latest four person, but apparently that also requires more than just a remote software patch from the manufacturer.

Well, when the FSS was introduced, the system scanner was upgraded to the full version in a similar miraculous method

Fleet Carrier 'Larry Niven', currently offering good prices for scrap Scarabs!

So do some restore, or shutdown or massacre or theft or heist missions (why limit yourself to just the 6+6?).
Don't grind one thing, just do lots of missions and check all the ports.

Pure lies.

I'm willing to give 2-3 extra hours delay to bring the servers up so the Devs to fix this minor slip.
It would be nice to have the Scarabs automagically upgraded instead of having to chase them individually on all my ships...

Edit: can i say Pure lies too?

I sense a disturbance in the Force , as if millions of Scarabs cried out in fear of being scrapped and were suddenly retconned.

Ahhh, but that could just be a firware upgrade right? Delivered over the sub-ether.

There's a reason for that, in this instance - haha.

Wait ... you mean the Scarab's cargo capacity WILL automatically increase to 4t without a refit?

Oof! Mah immerrrrrshuns!

Arrgh. OK.

@sallymorganmoore Sorry to bother you, do you know if this is in this patch?

Elite Dangerous: Odyssey | Update 9 Notes

Thanks for all the hard work, team! Can't wait to get in and try the new SRV. I think my favorite fix in that list would have to be the shunting when taking off FA Off (FA OFF FOR LYFE !!! ).

forums.frontier.co.uk

In Arthur's post it was mentioned there would be a fix for the influence missions not applying influence but I'm not seeing that here. Is that still in?

• Completing high influence missions will now affect Background Simulation as expected.

Ah, wonderful! I should read to the end of the thread before replying.
