The Id to overflow is the SystemID not the 64bitAddress.
To get the bits for the Body by adding something to the 64bitAddress you would need to add BodyID* 2^54 (BodyID is always the 9 bit MSBs of 64bitAddress)

To get the SeachString

your sheet is good...

but your missing the Trapezium Sector forsure, its not in your lockup tab, and the calcs dont work
you can try this system:

Yes, in-game comets have been known for a long time, discovered in Pareco around 2017 https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...-drop-into-normal-space-close-to-them.350586/, after which many others have been “detected”. Though I didnt know until yesterday there are 12 in Shinrarta Dezhra alone!
But they currently have no visual implementation. Initially IIRC that was because someone at FD said they couldnt do them visual justice. However I pointed out that with the particle graphics as seen in the surface probes FD have had that technology for some time. They just need to extend the time duration of the tail, thicken it (tail density inversely related to distance from star) and add an extra bit of code to “blow” the tail away from the star. The comet itself could be a non-landable small body.
So, why havent they implemented them visually? Could be low management priority, though it seems there are so many in-game that they would be a quick win for some graphics improvements. So perhaps there’s another reason? Perhaps these comets are too similar to Raxxla and they didn't want to draw attention, or make finding it easier by people actively looking for comets?

Just checked, it works.
Trapezium Sector is not a procedural generated name. the PGN for Trapezium Sector YU-X c1-2 => Oochorrs FL-F c27-2 => 634,547,605,994
There are many renamed Sectors that is why i only care about ID64. Best is to just treat every System as if you don't now its PGN Name.
It's just a different representation for the same Number. The Lockup should only contains PGN Names, only 17 of the Sector names i am unsure about, there are so few Systems in those Sectors that i can't be sure.

I am unsure if it is Proc gen, It seems it is but its a singular one, TBH due to my playtime being very narrow wit hwork I will give the system as a gesture of good will Lyrient KK-C d14-0 ;) its mostly manual navigation through Pludgao and HYPHEEH from IC 1590 and a route wont map, I hope i got my distance correct if not id advise having adleast 40ly jump range or an FC

It is pretty sure 100% a prog gen Name. And a very helpfull as well. No prog gen Name within that Sector has been on EDSM. i will add this to my lockup very helpful thx.

First, you kind of contradic yourself in that statement. If you can drop there, and see the name, isn't that in game?
And this is where I hate saying/fighting about things being "in-game".

Ok. In-game.

Both Raxxla and Comets are very much 'in-game', that shouldn't be in question or even talked about. They are, in simple they are.

The problem is, their level of implementation in game.

I really don't what to go down that rabbit hole to deep. It is a philosophical argument people argued for millennia about.
I do not contradict myself, i only have another concept in mind if i talk about -been in Game-.
If i follow your point of view however, everything is in game. My Carrier is called Tesseract does this make a Regular 4-polytope exist in game.
If you have the blueprint of a house does this make the house exists.

I can accept that saying "not fully implemented" fits better.

Just wanted to share an interesting finding (though i didn't find the system myself).
It's in Musca Dark Region PJ-P B6-1 planet 3, i went to Geological Survey 23B.
Then, i just wanted to get a close human system data - just because - and found this (look for asteroid base station, at line 3):

So it seems that stations inside belt clusters are shown in system map (whatever the distance).
If TDW station is operating at low power, it could be hidden from the left panel but still present in any belt cluster, which is the perfect place to hide!

Stellar Phenomenon, Clouds! Specifically with electrical activity!

Would match one of the imgs too wouldn't it? Of a planet in a cloud.... only, im thinking, What if the DW station is in an an electrical stellar cloud????!!!!

I've been pondering how the station could be ingame and not appear on nav panel, system map, or ect, but there also not be a single other station, even Superpower Owned, that doesn't also "hide" for security reasons, but this could be the explanation, no one else is crazy enough to hide their stations in Electrical Stellar Phenomenon!!

🤯

Edit: anyone know of systems with Electrical Stellar phenomenon and a gas giant with 8 moons 🧐

You weird and sound paranoid I just want to say that.

They thought you were the Twitter account owner, and that person is well established to be unreliable (to be nice and keep it short)

It was mistaken identity and pure annoyance as the Twitter account owner has been sending imgs like that without proof or explanation for well over a year on FB and Twitter. It's quite annoying when you have no context, explanation, conversation, debate, with the person, and they just show up and post random imgs and say " hey look what I found", nothing more.... again, that's where you were mistaken for being them

Hope that clears this up, no one meant any disrespect to you intentionally 😁

Gotcha my apologies.

My apologies to you, too @Godreyfarris - I did not mean to set you up so!

I've been away from ED for a long time, and I'm just getting back into the 'tinfoil' side of things (Thargoids, Guardians, the Search for Raxxla, other mysteries!), and your post both piqued my interest and also sounded a faint alarm in the dark forgotten corners of my brain.

Seeing that twitter feed reminded me that there was once a poster who would spam threads such as this with exactly that stuff on twitter, bereft of any context, explanation or even hints.

It was maddening.

I see you only joined the forums recently - new to ED/the 'tinfoil mysteries' or an old hand de-lurking?

If you'll pardon my intrusion :cool:

And apologies again for making one of your first ED Forum interactions less than welcoming :(

Edit: More line breaks for clarity.
