    Chalice Pod spheres and their centers

    TL;DR for those who are just looking to see where they can find Chalice Pods of their own. Now, read on for details. Earlier in May, I was looking at NSP maps, and I realised that I never really looked into the Chalice pods far in the North-East, even though they stand out. Why? Because...

    Thin atmosphere types and their rarities

    Time for a bit more research! I made a count of the various thin atmosphere types, their rarities, and also broke them down per body type. You can see the results at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eFev2Gh182FUporBzgrHGlls1rXVgrEirXbhhqXxrpI/. Note that the various [gas]-rich atmospheres...

    Unlocking the monorail research at a 1-star rating, not 2.

    One small frustration I keep experiencing in my Jurassic World-themed custom challenge mode games is the ability to unlock the monorail at 2 stars. Jurassic World is unique in that you have to manage your guests' transportation needs, something you do not need to worry about in Jurassic Park or...

    Early Access Bugs

    After 3 days of playing the game on 1.3 i can say i love it, but there are a lot of things wrong the weather conditions change instant: i can understand the track can get wet fast, but when its going to dry how in the world is it dry from 2 mm to 0 mm in 1 lap. F1 manager 22 did this better...

    Marx's guide to boxels / subsectors

    This topic seems to come up more and more often lately, so I thought I'd write another guide. Note that this will follow a more practical approach, mostly focused on explorers who heard about boxels and boxels surveys, and it won't go into detail about how sectors and boxel positions are...

    Could the Rana skin pattern be swapped with Papurana? A possible solution for buggy skin confusion.

    Since update 5 I noticed a weird experience with the Rana skin. When incubating dinosaurs with no research done on any skin color modifications, any dinosaurs incubated with either no skin pattern or a default pattern like Papurana would end up having the dinosaur be incubated with Rana...

    Could the indoraptor research not require an Indominus rex to be incubated?

    I liked how the indoraptor was accessible back in Jurassic World Evolution 1, when you simply needed to research the Indominus rex genome before being able to research the indoraptor, as you could jump directly to the indoraptor as your main park hybrid if you wanted a single hybrid from the...

    Analysing Thin Water Atmo bodies' distribution

    With how the payouts for exobio samples have shot through the roof recently, and how thin water atmospheric bodies tend to have the highest payouts on average, I decided to write up the data and analysis on them. Well, I did look into them before, but never cleaned up and posted the data...

    Randomised Dinosaur Tech Tree - returning a feature from JWE1 for replayability

    The sandbox options are amazing, but I am pretty confused as to why this feature was added to JWE1 but not even in a patch for JWE2. I like to use sandbox as a quasi-challenge mode with access to all maps and all dinosaurs. Allowing us to research dinosaurs in a random order is very necessary...

    Could the research menu be updated to match the building set chosen in sandbox mode?

    When doing research in any building set in sandbox mode, you will be seeing the standard research pages that use the Jurassic World buildings. The menus would not only display images appropriate to the building set like Jurassic World Hotel and Jurassic World shelter but would also show the...

    Locked Workshop Items?

    Okay so I read an old tweet from the devs saying to unlock the workshop items in franchise, you have to research the items used in that build, for example items used from the Arctic pack. SO. I literally have researched everything in the mechanic section, everything has a gold medal and says...

    A laboratory upgrade to allow further genetic modifications

    One of my favorite aspects of Jurassic World Evolution 2, like the first game, is being able to modify the genome of the dinosaurs. Being able to engineer your dinosaurs is fun as you could potentially create specimens to fit roles in your parks, especially with Jurassic World Evolution 2's...

    mamba as a new research ship

    hey guys i've been playing elite for quite some time now (1000+ hours) and i have to say that in all the time i've been playing i haven't gotten more aesthetic satisfaction from flying the mamba because it's round, huge and most importantly the uncovered cockpit gives me real pleasure from...

    Analysing class G main stars and ELWs in different mass codes

    Time for some more research! Some of you might remember some curiosities about systems with G main stars: namely, that they are almost evenly split between mass codes C and D. This is in contrast to most other star types, and all others from the main sequence, where each main star type heavily...

    Information on artist that designed the alien life in the game?

    I'm doing my thesis this semester and a big part of my influence comes the xenobiology and design of alien life in Elite. I'm looking for art portfolio's with concept art of the organics that appear in space and on the surface. Also any links to interviews with the art team regarding their...

    Analysing ELW distribution over sectors, crowdsourced data from 2021. July

    We need the option to reset research in sandbox and franchise

    The way it works right now, research is a one and done thing in franchise, amd not a thing at all in sandbox, which is a shame, because I love this feature. I'd love the option to reset research so that we could get the challenge of unlocking limited items as we go back. This used to be a...

    Allow fully-completed research in sandbox to be toggleable

    Maybe this has been posted before, but I would love for fully-completed research in sandbox mode to be either an on/off deal. At the moment, it seems like research is just all done and dusted when you start up a new zoo in sandbox. It's a nice option to have, but I like to work for stuff in my...

    Marx's guides, research, data, and various other stuff

    Research in Sandbox

    I love the feature of Research, but in sandbox everything is researched for you. I would really like a feature that allows you to choose if you want all mechanical/animal research complete before starting a new zoo. Like a checkbox in the new zoo menu. This would allow you the sandbox options +...

    Live Thargoid Close-Up

    Following a hyperdicition event I encountered a Thargoid Interceptor that followed my ship, matched my velocity, but did not scan me or react violently - this was fortunate, as I had a sensor, a probe, and a link in my cargo hold. I took the opportunity to log a visual inspection of the...

    Signs of human life out in the black?

    So I recently stumbled upon this old gem the Hyponia Horizon Mission and I was really intrigued at the fact that they found what appeared to be crashed nav beacons and even an NPC system defense ship roughly 14kly from the nearest starport and its got me wondering if this is something that can...

    Transferring research and more trading storage for CC

    Like many people have said before it's pretty annoying that you have to start over completely every time you open a new franchise zoo and it doesn't actually feel much like a franchise at all without an option to transfer research (and cash but that's another matter) between zoos. It doesn't...

    Outpost Antenna Audio

    Research - what have I unlocked?

    Hi lovely people. First up, amazing game and everything is awesome. Top of my wishlist for a future feature - can we have a "See details" button or something when we've completed some research. At the moment it's really hard to figure out exactly what has been unlocked, particularly with...

    To be able to prioritise research for the staff

    When you assign a staff member to a research project it appears that the game will automatically remove them from the task if there is another job in the game to fulfill. This can mean incomplete research tasks go unnoticed. There should be an option to either force the staff member to remain...

    Common Ostrich Sizes seem wrong

    Might just be in the ones I saw, but male and female ostrich size ratio seems very off. The females I saw in game were much smaller than males, when in reality they are the same size as male ostriches and in some cases larger.

    General Gameplay Immersive Sorting for Research Fossil Screen

    Of course I want to know what dinosaurs and what DLC I've bought. But I can see that on Steam already. I know what content I have and I know what I have bought. Yet in the game while building our parks we also see the dinosaurs divided by their DLC, which isn't very immersive. This kinda takes...
