fsd

Hi all, Long time lurker here, first time poster. I gathered performance data into a google sheets doc on the new SCO drive in all ships. I posted to reddit here and forgot that the ED forums were a thing. Posting here too in case there are forums-only CMDRs and there's interest in this. The...

Hello CMDRs 07 I recently learned that the 6A pre engineered FSD was only temporarly available during a community goal. I find that really sad since now its hardly valuable for me to move away from my DBX with 5A pre engineered FSD to an Anaconda. (basically no advantage in jump range while the...

Dear Fdev, Any chances for CG for unlock the other FSDs to Tech Broker than A5? There was some chance a year ago and nothing after that. Unfortunately many old and new players missed that opportunity (Colonia Bridge). Could you bring the Community Goal that would unlock the rest of...

Привет. У меня проблема. При выходе из FSD я промазал цель миссии. При стрельбе с привода FSD пропадал маркер миссии и не было целей на радаре, но это не главная проблема. Когда я попытался включить FSD, он зарядился, но ничего не произошло. Отменил задание, поставил цель прыгнуть на соседнюю...

I have never been able to plot a route in the game with jet cone boost. Every time it gives me an error about the jump exceeding the maximum fuel my FSD can use per jump. I don't even have cargo!

Hi folks, I recently saw in the FSD that I can manufacture some kind of boost, and then I saw in the route plotter to use level 1 boost. However, when I try to plot the route it always fails. Is there a way to use the boost to plot a quicker route? I am willing to manufacture the boost at...

Hey CMDRs, I'm a born-again newb, back playing from scratch after a break of several years so pardon my dumb questions. Thing is, I got myself a Cobra and and an invite from Felicity Farseer, so decided to go all out to get a maxxed-out FSD for fun and a sense of achievement. Did the 70 or so...

Ok so I know this has probably been asked in responses to other CG’s but I don’t recall seeing any response as yet. Is there any information as to when/if the Christmas CG FSD’s will be getting the ability to add experimental effects to them or has that been too tricky to achieve? Thank you

Does anyone have any idea where I can find an 8A FSD? They seem to be a Unicorn! :( Thanks!

Just face it, the blueprint is useless in it's current form. My suggestion is: - In addition to existing effects, add new parameter - FSD stability - which will make it harder to interdict. This should be balanced against the FSD Interdictor module and it's engineering upgrades.

Anyone else finding the same thing happening? I'm near the galaxy's core, about to set out on a new journey, and having reached a neutron star I supercharged my FSD as I have done a thousand times. Except, now that I try to target any system - even one ten lightyears from my position - results...

o7 CMDRS! So I've been in love with Elite since the day I got it, since my joining, I've hosted events from time to time, most notably 'The Race at The Top of The Galaxy' which was hosted during Down To Earth Astronomy's carrier event to the locale. During the ride up to the top, I had...

I've been playing ED with mouse + keyboard since the Beta and don't wanna invest into a HOTAS system any time soon. Unfortunately, there is a huge drawback for mouse players. If you use the mouse without the 'relative' (=auto centering) settings, you have a comfortable control scheme in both...

I find it pretty ridiculous that you have to consume lots of resources for a single jump. It should be a 5 minute buff to jump range. As it stands, FSD boosts feel unrewarding. Wanna make a big jump? Here's a slap in the face. Have fun! -_-;

UPDATE: THE ANSWER IS “NO.” Do NOT attempt this or you will ruin your module! Since no one seemed to know the answer, and no one appeared willing to try and find out, I decided to take one for the team and test it myself. Unfortunately, the 2-second reboot time is NOT hardcoded as a base...

Question: I dont remember if the engineer upgrade task on a FSD drive is addtive. If I first do the grade 1 and then I do a grade 2, is the changes from grade 2 added on grade 1 effects? Or is the grade 1 removed and grade 2 added to FSD clean slate? Tried to google it but cant find any...

Simple request, add the star class under the system name, just above the horizontal line. Having the Star Class in the Info data is suboptimal because it clears after a moment. If you think this is a reasonable request, like it to show support.

Hi, I maintain a stock of Meta-Alloys in my Fleet Carrier for new players looking to get started with engineering their ships with Felicity. Felicity is the most useful engineer to unlock first because it will allow you to upgrade the range of your Frame Shift Drive, allowing you to jump...

Hey Frontier, here's something to chew on for New Era. How about a new type of FSD (perhaps a Guardian FSD if you must) that allows players to give up supercruise for the ability to jump to specific planets and points-of-interest. This would be completely optional, so not to take away everyone...

I was hunting bounties in Jalabon when I accidentally shot the wrong ship (earning a bounty on me), eventually took aggro and was shot down. I was able to rebuy in the station I was carted off to (The Sepuchre), but can't make the trip back to Jalabon since every time I try to plot a route, it's...

I don't know if there's a mechanic that I'm not aware of, I'm a fairly new player. But I just got interdicted and instantly killed by another Commander. During the interdiction, I stayed in the circle almost the entire time, but despite that the red progress bar went up far faster than I could...

Hello, First post here, please be gentle! ;) I've been exploring with my DBX for a while now, currently in the Sagittarius-Carina arm, but so far I've always avoided Neutron boosts. So today I thought I'd try it, just to overcome my fears of entering that jet... Maybe I did something wrong...

Hi people I want an HYPERCRUISE, please.... When we travel across the galaxy reaching far destinations, we have to jump, and jump and jump and rejump to stars again and again an then again [zZzZz] . I really love to explore the galaxy and i love to apprehend its vertiginous vastness before...

... to be able to figure this kind'a stuff out. Now, I've been aware of Technology Brokers since the day of their creation when they all magically appeared (can you say witchspace and parallel universe in one breath). I even visited one on day 1 of their creation; a human tech one. After...

This post is essentially a culmination of some experiments I have been doing. At first it started out as a question on the fleetcomm squad chat. What happens when you neutron jump at 1%? Somewhere along the way it balooned into many experiments with people asking various things for me to test...

For me, the most frustrating part of the new exploration mechanics is that you can't use the FSS Scanner whilst charging your FSD for a hyperspace jump. This means that looking out for interesting bodies whilst on a long-distance honk-scoop-jump journey takes much longer than using the old...

I've now upgraded the FSD on 8 ships to level 4 with Elvira Martuuk on Khun (not with pinned blueprints). How do we get her to pop the level five options? Is there a combination of things that we can do/provide her to get off of the level 4 plateau?

Hi! I was dumb enough to exit from supercruise to check a signal near a star. It was interesting but now my system is at 54% heat, can't engage supercruise to go away so my hair is waving at brutal 220. And the 54% heat is permanent. Every unsuccessful tries to engage supercruise cause damage...

Has anyone manged to miss jump in Elite Dangerous other than Hyperdictions? I understand the new fsd tech is supposedly more reliable than older drives, but I am wondering if misjumps can happen at all.

Yeah anyone else notice how all this upgrade does is increase your heat, and boost the optimal mass a little bit? There is absolutely no change to the speed of the charge lol

So Corvas. There are a bunch of voices for them and although I didn't feel like picking up one for money yet. This might change if we get a nice addition to the pack: An Alternative Version, that emphasises "Friendshipdrive" for FSD. It should be come free with any bougth Voice pack and you get...

I've come to the conclusion that what Elite is missing in the realm of Very Large Ships is Even Bigger Ships. Those top tiers of faction rank are empty and don't have much of a purpose at the moment, so why not kill a few birds with one stone? To be clear, these would not simply be...

I think it's time frontier provide the players a way to travel to any planet we wish using the FSD, still keeping the range as is. With the new partial cargo mission system it does make the grind of flying from port to planet and so on longer, partly because of going back to collect the...

I'm not sure this observation is in the right place, but here goes! I accept a lot of contracts that end up with bounty hunters/assassins being sent to eliminate me! I don't very often oblige them with combat, being very often outgunned, so I outfly them in the "mini-game". This has the...

I thay done multiple thousand light year trips across multiple new sites. I have spent hours driving around and hours flying around (yes you can detect the guardian items flying low and slow in a fighter) and found any number of caskets, urns and relics but no orbs. I read in these forums that...

Hello commanders, if this suggestion has been brought up once before then appologies FSD Jump traveling has been up for debate alot but i have a suggestion that while make Jumping still tedious, but also be on schedule even if its a few seconds off. I give you the "Range Limiter". simply put...

There seems to be some debate on how much of the new C&P system is a response to player "griefing", but I think there may be a better way to "cure" this problem that's logical, easy to implement, PvP-friendly, and brings meaning to system security state. Disable FSD Interdictors in HiSec...

Hey there, while jumping around in the core, I've found a star system that has some very interesting FSD behavior when jumped to, and I'm wondering if this is a known occurrence. This system consists of two stars with similar spectrum, but they both have EXACTLY the same solar mass, at 1,5...
