    New Exploration Incentive(s)?

    Random thought --- Rescue stranded explorers (NPCs) or scan ship crashes in faraway systems; when and if completed you get a random DLC ship cosmetics (preferably parts not paints), Pre-engineered weapons/ship parts. These rescues can also have some lore attached or not. Sorry if its been...

    Black Box (you know we need it)

    Greetings, I will try to make it quick :) I lost my data. All of it, the second time ;) First time I made a small 35k lightyear journey around the Center of the Galaxy... made a repair, went to the door to pick up a package, forgot to turn on life support after module repair... popped...

    Medium Gutamaya Ship Idea: Imperial Surveyor

    There was an error with the image, this is meant to house a Class 6 FSD to achieve the numbers found within the calculations Above is something I drew up because it was Sunday, I was bored, and I want a Gutamaya exploration vessel. You may find a full res version of the image here. I was using...

    Has the Diamondback explorer and Asp Explorer been deleted?

    I dropped into Roguey to find the nearestplace to buy one from where I am (kamadhenu - Couper Hub), and it says there is one there....but there isn't. I also tried 5 other stations near there, according to Roguey, and there isn't any there either. The Wiki site doesn't show any locations to buy...

    Colonia bound: mixed bag of questions

    I’ve unlocked Etienne Dorn, so I’m on my way to Colonia in my slightly mis-configured Anaconda to work on getting G5 sensors. It will likely take me a few weeks to get there, and I plan on spending some time (a few weeks?) in that area when I arrive. I’ll have to ’level up’ my engineer friend...

    From True Explorer to Tourist

    I used to be a True Explorer, but since restarting on PC I've become a not-so-true Tourist. This means that I'm purposefully exploring the Bubble itself, without caring about my name on discovery or mapped tags or making zillions of credits through Stellar Cartography. In some ways, tourism is...

    Love the hangarbay, but..

    Am quite new, but love the game. Done some travelling with a fighter on my keelback, but have tried to avoid fighting sofar. Am dreaming about a Defender 10 Explorer with a lander/explorer hangar for orbital srv deployments. Maybe a small mining ship?

    Remove grid overlay on planets when not using DSS

    While the grid overlay is super useful and makes sense while you are mapping with the discovery scanner, it makes very little sense afterwards to have the big blue overlay on afterwards. It might be nice in the niche case that you want to map a lot of bodies right next to eachother and don't...

    Call for Explorers - NGC 188 now reachable

    EDIT: after a more careful look at it, it seems this was done through an exploit, so it is NOT possible to reach NGC 188 yet! it is also in very poor exploration spirit to use exploits to get to a place before everyone else.. I was recently shocked at discovering that on EDSM, it seems like...

    Route plotting - show us the failed route!

    Currently when Route Plotting fails, it just said "Route plotting failed" and doesn't show what it managed to calculate. Can you please change it so that it does? At least that would let us follow the route as far as it goes and then give us the option to recalculate and replot via an...

    Adaptive zoom failed.. Adaptive zoom failed.. Adaptive zoom failed..

    One annoying issue i have with the FSS is how really sensitive the targets are, for both planet selection and tuning. Note, i'm not referring to the actual action of moving the dials over the signal, it's just that the actual "hitbox" for these are smaller than the signals themselves. I use a...

    Can't multicrew explore without multicrew SRV!

    The addition of the turret-style system & planet scanner, which allows multiple people (and crew) to use it at the same time, is great for multicrew! It actually allows players to cooperate together, and scan a system twice as fast, or even thrice as fast if you're wing exploring. (does it work...

    Improving the FSS: More nuanced signals!

    So, i have already read & made many posts about how the new FSS makes it much slower to get quick and honestly, quite important information, so that an explorer can judge if a system is truly notable and worth visiting. However, while a loud minority HAVE complained, there hasn't been that many...

    Diamondback Explorer boosting with low power distributor

    Hey, I currently have a 1D power distributor fitted on my Exploration Diamondback. Of course that's not enough for boosting but how far up do I have to go? And would it be possible to equip a power distributor that won't boost stock but will boost when engineered? If yes, what distributor would...

    How dangerous is Elite?

    Hi, I haven't played Elite for about 2 years, not since I crashed my ship on the return journey after several months of exploration, then got griefed in my T6, and my X52 joystick broke and the customer support basically didn't want to know... (it was a bad day) ... so, traumatised, I put down...

    XENOARCHAEOLOGY and new exploration mechanics

    The new exploration mechanics look very good. But we also need new things to explore. There are many planets with "alien life". But the archaeological findings don't reflect this diversity. In addition to the Guardian sites, I suggest other points of interest: - Ruins of other civilizations...

    Is repairing modules on-the-fly with any Repair Limpet working?

    I, with Explorer ambitions, am far from civilized space, equipped with a Repair Limpet. It seems it repairs Hull Damage but my modules are still in 97-99% health and the limpet doesn't repair them, even after reboot. Is it up only to the too-less-damage? (I've read somewhere that it need min...

    New to exploration - Ship suggestion plz

    Should "firsts" not be worth more than they are?

    Just docked in the Jellyfish nebula, having made the relatively short journey across from the Rosette nebula. It's about 20 to 30 jumps. Almost all systems I stopped at and scanned as first discovery. When I come to cash in, it's worth 2.7million credits. The first bonuses come in at about a...

    Diamondback Explorer SHIP KIT WIP (Proposal/feature request)

    Ship concept: Scorpion Scout & Explorer

    As we're supposedly going to get more for exploration soon. I'll toss out these ideas: Both of these ships look like flying screwdrivers, with long tails at the back. These tails provide mounting points for sensors, scanners, and other small stuff that doesn't have to be in the passenger...

    Adder or Hauler for exploration, and your rec loadout?

    Hi Cmdrs! I've just upgraded and downgraded and regraded across a selection of ships while trying to find the right one for me. I'm stuck between the Hauler and the Adder now. I want a ship capable of exploration, while having a small amount of versatility to throw a bit of cargo on-board to...

    Please can we have a 32t fuel tank for the Chieftain?

    Please could we have the fuel tank in the Chieftain increase to a 32t as standard, as this would make this ship just that bit more perfect for those of us who would like to do more than just combat. I for instance would like to use this tough ship as a secure fast transport for passengers, and...

    Would like a new, different exploration ship from FD:

    Ok, so we have the trusty old ASP Explorer. It certainly will do for most any situation, if you stretch it here or there. But its overly rustic and that B-29 sound can get a bit old after some time. Then we have the "everything-and-the-kitchen-sink" Anaconda, where you don't have to leave...

    WMR flicker fix
