The CGs will be decided during the weekend. That's when most players can play. It all depends on how many carriers make the move and how full they are.

That amount can ensure you are in top 75% but will hardly make any difference to completion. Tier 1 maybe unreachable, without serious abuse of zero amount supply or good help from bubble FCs. The initial amount was too low.
You'll get quicker with practice (and it's a tough one - my best run was 6 minutes pad to pad, my worst was almost 8 - where you hit orbit makes a huge amount of difference)Well, my 2nd try was... about 4 minutesI did improve on the approach, coming in fast inside the rings and letting gravity slow me, but then I was just at 3Mm out and slowing hard. Up side, didn't crunch the deck. This place reminds me of Biggs back in FE2... that was a monster to land on too - although I think that was 3g.
If you're only moderately off, stay just below the blue line and fly level with the surface - that'll get you almost 500km/s compared with the normal 200km/s orbital cruise speed limit.
It's definitely another advantage to swapping a few of the bigger locations around - if the EDDB data is more than an hour old you might well get lucky because everyone else has decided it won't be worth it.
Just watched Mriya tick and generate 233 composites; yesterday I think we were saying it usually did 70? Not sure if some background tuning has happened to make it a bit more possible by reducing waiting time?
Any idea if the docking computer can handle high g? It's definitely faster than I am on the small rocks, but I fear what it might do on the big Rock
Mriya was around 120 on average when I was checking yesterday, so maybe you got lucky and picked up two ticks? (Buy at end of one, wait slightly more than ten minutes before checking again so two productions have happened)
It's possible there's been a state change through in the latest political tick, but I can't think of one that could plausibly increase production any further.
A hand-coded boost to production rates at those stations is certainly possible but would be very hard to confirm with this much trade activity ... though if it starts happening consistently that may be it.
I haven't used one - from watching a ship recall to plain surface on a high G environment, it'll probably be safe, but a lot slower than the old "I have shields/HRPs" dart technique...Any idea if the docking computer can handle high g?

Patience, carriers need 15 hours travel time from the bubble and have to be loaded and unloaded. Numbers will rise.
Unless the UI can sometimes lag and you see both back to back?
Just noticed it becase yesterday the ticks did not fill my cargo hold and I would wait on the pad for a 2nd; today one was enough. I arrived to find zero, waited a few mins then plink, 233 available. I will no doubt test this again later today
Yes I use a docking computer to land at the 4G surface base in the Pleiades.Just watched Mriya tick and generate 233 composites; yesterday I think we were saying it usually did 70? Not sure if some background tuning has happened to make it a bit more possible by reducing waiting time?

I'd consider it something of a necessity.
Update; last tick seemed to be for 170 ish. Not sure if that's as expected or a little more generous. Though I do stand by having witnessed a 0-233 this morningwaited a few mins then plink, 233 available. I will no doubt test this again later today
...with a 240t cargo hold, it's probably not worth my worrying about station hopping ^^; On average, it's a 5 minute wait for the 2nd load to fill up.
Excellent!
Anyone know how much Tritium is needed to get to Colonia in my new FC?
I've only tried a few jumps and it seemed to use 80odd T for a 416ly jump but only had 9kT Tritium.
What about if I have 25kT full cargo (mix of 14kT Tritium and 12kT computer components)
Is it worth it? (using 752T T9 both to buy and unload)
And would 14kT Tritium get me there and back?

Just keep in mind Tritium supply in Colonia is close to 0 and you either need to bring your fuel from the bubble, mine it or buy it from other FCs for the return trip.
OK ta.a lovely tool - for precise result enter precise data for your cargo , services etc.Elite: Dangerous Index

It varies. While idling at Mriya yesterday I saw everything from 90's to 250's in a single tick. Usual value in low 100.Just watched Mriya tick and generate 233 composites; yesterday I think we were saying it usually did 70?

Just now I got 284 in one go.

The ten minute countdown starts when you click the Buy button, not when you enter the market. You need a few seconds once the timer has expired to click on the market, click the commodity, increase the amount and click the Buy button. A straight ten minute timer will always sound a few seconds before your market refreshes, and it will get progressively more out of sync as time goes by if it automatically resets after every time it runs out.Edit: Do you have alarm for every 10 min? You can set those in windows or smartphone with 10 min snooze
I have an exercise timer on my phone that does a ten minute countdown and sounds an alarm (to let me know that the market has refreshed), then it has a ten second wait timer and sounds another alarm to let me know the ten minute timer has started again (and I need to have clicked the Buy button before that alarm sounds). I can do it in five seconds, but ten allows me some wiggle room.
This way I can play remotely from my Xbox on my IPad and just make a few clicks every ten minutes while I watch TV or read while filling up on cargo for an hour.

Yes - players who are in the Top 75% receive the modules. Current Inara estimate for the threshold to get in to the Top 75% is about 600t - this will likely rise over the term of the CG.
Current rate requirement is around 18000t/hour - this is slightly higher than we've been actually achieving since the initial stockpiles ran out, but not by very much - increased activity at the weekend and the occasional incoming carrier should get us through, but it'll be very close.
BGS update: Mriya's economy is overheating a bit and if it flips into Investment that will hurt a lot. Now is a good time to stop selling trade goods to it.
In Chrysus, better news - the economy is staying well within the safe range, and the security is rising towards Civil Liberty which will give us a big production rate boost to make it comparable with Mriya.
Good hauling!
