Feeling much better. Should have time for a single Neutron run a little later this evening - with chance for a normal run as well if everything goes wrong.
It'll be my first neutron run ever, so I'll probably need that short run as a backup!
Good luck! I was able to get two non neutron highway runs in yesterday and was happy to improve by 6+ minutes from the 'trial' to the one I've just submitted. There are some nice vistas on the course, and I was getting lucky with station/moon/star orbit positioning to make some dramatic views as I was on approach or departure.
Fly fast all you last day racers!
Couple of quick questions on that - is an AMFU essential (due to the unavoidable FSD degradation)? - and - where spansh comes up with a whole series of neutrons in a row each 1 jump to the next, did you have to manually plot to some scoopables in-between to keep the fuel levels topped up?.
I liked the 100 minute bonus:
- Those that made the long run in a good time deserved the big bonus I think - and it was great to have a quick race that included a big trip out of the bubble (and back).
- Anything with a chance of a negative time is going to attract Space Bears.
- If my outbound trip had been as good as my inbound one, I'd have had an adjusted time of about 10 minutes, so I think 100 minutes was good to encourage giving neutron runs a go, 80 minutes might have appeared to be for experts.
- Crotalus would have done it even for a 10 minute bonus.
I've never tried using spansh to run a neutron highway route). Couple of quick questions on that - is an AMFU essential (due to the unavoidable FSD degradation)?
Basically, every single time you get the "Frameshift operating beyond safety limits" warning come up on the screen it knocks 1% off your FSD. So if you don't managed to hit the supercharge on your first pass through and can't very quickly get back into the trail to finish it off, then you're going to end up taking 2% hit on each one.
I had thought the same, but it appears that it's actually slightly less than 1% per supercharge. My outbound route featured 21 neutron stars, and I certainly didn't manage to do all of them in a single pass through the jet cone, but I arrived at Amunden with my FSD at 80%. Similarly, while the return journey had 22 neutron stars which matches up with the final FSD integrity of 78%, there were at least a couple where I had to pass through the jet cone (and thus got the "Frameshift operating beyond safety limits" message) more than once.

Quick question.... Why the exotic fuel tank configuration?Didn’t really have the time this week, had looked at taking the fram class out to lagoon sector
