Commanders, welcome to New Yembo

Just some screenies...

Had to scale them down from 4K though

Zebarmy · Feb 19, 2015

And it's already serving it's purpose as a base for furthering Exploration:

Sweet, thanks for sharing

Time to swap out the Python for my trusty Asp and head out again.

Just a heads up. There is no Bulletin Board, Outfitting or Shipyard yet.

It does have refuel, rearm and a commodities market (terraforming/extraction).

Excellent... Did whizz off on a couple of rares rounds after this finished. Might mosey over and have a look. Wonder if the 5% discount is sorted yet, might invest in a t7 if it is

Yembo was my base of operations - been away since it all kicked off, won't be back for some time, currently 16,000ly away sulking over Black Holes

There ain't none of them in deep space either, and I didn't miss them the first time I went exploring

True that

Was the new station not supposed to be an Ocellus sphere?

I thought that, but yep, it's an Orbis

But I thought the whole point of the ocellus was that it's the one you can attach engines onto. I thought every new system was going to start with one of those, followed by orbis and coriolis built on-site. Seems like they threw out that bit of lore.

An error I believe...

I'll raise a bug.

And, thankfully, repairs!

Indeed... how did I miss that, first thing I did was fix my Asp up

Can you actually dock with this while it moves?

Undecided · Feb 19, 2015

It is mentioned in the news article that the station was outfitted far beyond "far beyond their original specifications". Maybe an upgrade to the larger Orbis class stations was one of the stretch goals? Those stations definitely seem to be able to fit more modules than the Ocellus.

Edit:

It's already reached its destination. HIP 1011101 was renamed New Yembo.

Either that or, could it be they just re-used the Jaques station model?

ORBIS STATION

Jesus H Christ, Frontier, can you guys at least follow the small lore blurb you've established yourself? Not that elite lore is in any way extensive to begin with.

People swallowed the fact that station is placed manually during server maintenance because the engine works that way, fine. What's the excuse this time? Was it really that hard?

It's like FD seizes every moment to trip and fall comically, even doing simple copy paste stuff. This whole station building shebang reeks of laziness. I begin to wonder, are they doing it on purpose to annoy people?
