Do you think the highest tiers of station should be a realistic goal for a solo player?Not that I'm complaining but I can see how some people will baulk at the build reqs.
An orbis build needs 238,676 tons of materials (I added up the mats list from a post on page 4 above). For any solo player (sans fleet carrier or squadron to help) that's a lot of grind. I run a shieldless T9 for cargo runs (called bullseye btw) with 786ton cargo capacity, so that'd be 303 trips assuming full cargo on each run from supply station to station construction. Easy to share that amongst a squadron but hell of a lot of runs for solo player. I'm v.close to top 10 in current CG having hauled 90k tons so far in my T9 in just over a week so used to heavy haulin - but very repetitive. The CMM composites may be the toughest part though. Inara shows highest spawn is 178 in LP292 sector so to gather 11000 of these is 62 runs alone for any solo player unless the task is shared by a squad and a FC to do the heavy haulin.
EDIT: tho reading the post above, would have to figure the megaship use and how that works to lighten the load. I'm still waiting for the update to download
People forget that they are building a station. It's already very good that a lone wolf can build an outpost and colonise alone a entire solar system.
Looking good so far, but can somebody please nudge the UI devs to make sure the UI Back button is working in the new UI for the System colonisation selection view please, it's a little irritating
did you figure this out? im seeing it too. Does this mean the surround area around a system is full perhaps?
I found my megaship - it was parked at a random location in my system. I don't want my first base there. How can I change it?
They'll only appear once the Trailblazer CG in the Minerva system is done. The Trade CG still has one week to go and it's currently at Tier 2. Definitely more participation is needed.
The Bounty CG is doing very well but that's not the side the Megaships are linked to.

There’s a section called Refining the Process…you mine a material and then convert to steel
Oh, so helpful lol.
Wow, that's Buckyball fast!
I guess you must refine it out of mined resources into refinery/industrial system.
Geforce Now is again not updating the Epic Games Client of ED ...
You should try jumping through the bubble right now - on a 100 ly trip (there and back again), I got two popups announcing the arrival of colonisation ships.
Has everyone elses Powerplay standings and projected salaries for this period been reset to zero with this update and the cycle ending in ~12 hrs?
