Am I don't understand something or it's really a landable planet with size of a gas giant?
Kinda late to check it (system is far away from the bubble and i'm too lazy to go back) but i thought that somebody also found something like thisWell it has the blue arc around it indicating it can be....try it?? Shouldn't work so a bug?
Thanks for replies. I've suggested outfitting Mamba for longer and more spicy trip (probably shieldless Mamba) because why not, i love how this ship looks as well as Krait
Of course. Any suggestion where i can train landing with high gravity?i admire your courage. It will be spicy if you're planning on exploring high-g worlds in a shieldless ship!
Good luck.
I don't know how to check planets gravity in-gameOh your planet is nothing really special. You will find slightly bigger landable ones. They usually have low gravity
6.7G is good testing. In the bubble.

Thanks. Anyway i would first spend some time grinding materials for the engineers. Also i would like to have some rest after my recent returning from Sagittarius A* and Colonia, so it's probably will be after a week at least. Also found myself new favorite song that i would like to use for upcoming video(s) for my channel.Yup, if in doubt, spend some time in the system maps, and you'll get used to recognising them too like @SciTrekker said.
As a rule of thumb (from a non explorer person, so don't see it as gospel!) - I don't tend to have found high g ice cubes, although I imagine they exist. Perhaps someone will point one out.
So, my advice would be to start from planet 1 and work out until you run out of HMC, metal rich, rocky, and so on. The bigger the planet, the better chance of high g. Also, many moons fall into the same group as ice cubes, but that isn't a guarantee.
Some places I know of. Upsilon Aquarii has a 2.4g I think, planet 2, under the coriolis. It also has a station base on the planet - you can always try using a DC to begin with just to see how it gets "tricked by" and deals with higher g, it's useful to watch it try. It shouldn't fail, but I am never fully trusting of them!!
The planet home to Taine Landing in Ra is similar to the above, and gives the same opportunities.
Achenar has a 4.x g planet, but I can't remember which one without looking.
Then go up from there.
I am no expert in this, but learned the hard way that a comedy rebuy makes you look more! Expensive belly flop! Always have 4 pips in shields, but I think already said.
I would advise working up though, as although gravity is linear, it depends on thrusters too, not just linear engine power, so can be a deceptive issue. The one in achenar has a base too I think, but again not certain.
It's oft overlooked, but if you normally land on moons and little things, a 1g planet is also worth practising on, as the behaviour can catch you out. But once you have tried a few you'll be good - try combining a landing with somewhere that has geological sites, so you can collect materials too - it'll make it more interesting than just bump landing, iykwim?
Good luck Cmdr,

PS, nearly forgot - once you get near a body, the visual overlay comes up showing altitude and etc. On the right vertical bar, at the bottom, is the Gravityometericalmeter (I made that up), it shows the relative g based on altitude. Sometimes people forget that at 1000km/1Mm up, the g is lower than at the surface, so keep an eye on it so it doesn't catch you out o7
Also i don't know if i can go to Xibalba on my own or i should straight up bring a fleet carrier for that trip. Probably would scout ahead fi

Coolio if you're grinding materials, and need raw elements, that's why I thought I'd suggest going to higher g planets with geological sites. They'll give you practice at higher g landings passively...
I had very unpleasant experience with shooting crystals on geological sites because of fps drop to 30 and less. Most memorable was geological site in between few huge hills, where most of the crystals was super hard to reachAs well as the fun you'll have while you watch materials shoot down at the ground like they've been blasted out of a cannon!
Ceres Tarn a medium gravity base and planet down towards Maia where you can even see how the DC does it landing at the base, for high gravity there is AchenarOf course. Any suggestion where i can train landing with high gravity?
That's a slightly dangerous suggestion. Not wrong in itself, mind you, but you are still high up when you enter orbital cruise (OC), and the G stat shows up. Which means that at that point/altitude the G stat may read something harmless/managable, like <1G or some such. If you don't keep an eye on that stat on your decent, you may be up for a nasty surprise after dropping out of glide and preparing for the landing, because by then the Gs will be a multiple of what you saw when entering OC..... Get close and HUD will change to OC view, which will include G stat.
