Oh the irony. So which is it, that we could have had dozens of planets covered by now, or that several hundred of us might have been able to do one small planet in a day?

You seem to think every person in Mobius would be even remotely interested in this borderline farce of an 'event', when even some of the staunchest members of Canonn have decided that enough is enough.

I just went to the alpha ruins site to pick up 4 ancient relics and tried out the graphic settings as some said the ruins are better visible with lower settings. When I play on high or ultra settings the ruins become incredibly hart to see above 4 km and vanish entirely above 7.5 km. When I set the graphic options to low. They are really clear and visible up to about 8 km where they start to get a lower res texture and appear not to be in 3d anymore. But I was still able to identify the ruins up until a height of 30 km. It was only at a height of 40km where the ruins become not visible anymore. So forget about playing on ultra terrain settings, the only way to find them is via gliding at 8km and low terrain settings.

I think my theory worked :)

So i thought scan all the landables then check the data before I hand it in.

One of the landables is valued at 41309 credits
far above all other landables.

EDIT ahh its a candidate for terraform. still could be usefull info though right ?

Anyway here is a pic of the cartographic details and of the system map info of the planet.

Just for fun (when I was able to play) at the ruins, I targeted Sirius for the destination. Synuefe NJ-D b46-4 showed up as a first jump to there. If somebody would like to check if that path leads towards Ram Tah's recommendations?

I think he meant in relation to the body they orbit. Obviously they still rotate and the sky changes anywhere but on the poles. Only when you would centre your view on the body they orbit, then it seems they don't rotate. Same as earth and moon. When viewed from earth, the moon always shows us the same side. But when viewed from anywhere else, the moon always shows a different side.

Woowww thats a post worth reading a cmnr that went out and did something. CAn I suggest a 100km square on that body for all you forum whingers.
Except you DArk Helmet you stay at home and play with your burst ball.

Could you please remind us your theory?

I should have said that they always face the same direction in space

There will be a migration of quite randoms who will on and off search the planets in question out, frontier have however copped a lot of flack for the way this has been handled and the lack of tools which i think is the big issue. It shows their weakness in lacking procedural content. I wouldnt call it a farce, but if nothing is found in a few weeks, frontier will merely run another "anaysis" by ram tah and start giving out co ordinates, and given maybe 80% of those searching have given up it might just be the rearkick that is needed to force a rethink into how the game is handled. Its been needed for a while but the community has sort of facilitated a bit of lazy storyline work. But lets see i propose a CG to build a new station in the IC sector (research base) to facilitate npc expansion in science.

Scratch one idea. I'm on Syn XO-P C22-17 planet AB3.
Thought I'd take the coordinates of the "alpha" side and adjust for the new axial tilt here.
Didn't pan out.

But boy, oh boy, have I found a lot of dark dirt. I could be king of Waterworld. I could buy a Costner.

I kept my terrain texture at Ultra and just turned off Shadows and Terrain Material Quality to Low and I could see the circle and line in the ruins at 25Km up. It stood out less above that.

Thanks I'll try that.
Due to how wishy washy this is I suppose a visual search isn't the way forward.
