Hazardous Material Detected : FSD Malfunctioning

FSD @ 73% which didn't used to cause issues. I'll repair just now anyway.

What's this Hazardous substance then? I am a long way from anywhere so I doubt there will be anything spawning.

Modules under 80% have a chance to fail, fwiw. Btw, where is this occuring?

Ship integrity is a measure of the wear and tear to the ship's hull. 0% integrity effectively reduces your otherwise 100% repaired hull down to 70%.

Your hull health percentage shown under modules is relative to damage to the hull, say from a cannon or something. You have a hole in your ship or something has been blown off it, which can be repaired/replaced when you dock.

Your ship's integrity is the hull's condition in context of wear. You may have repaired all of your damage over the years or from your last few trips, but overtime things will need to be replaced due to end of useful life failures.

Someone runs into my car and knocks the bumper off. I go to the shop and they replace it and the tail lights, and now my car's "hull" is back to 100%, as all panels are in place and nothing is missing or broken. My car has 175,000 miles on it though, so I could probably stand to have all of the hoses and seals replaced before they fail (yeah, these things aren't in the "hull" of the car, but you get the point, and I really should get those done....)
 
currently 15k away from home towards Sag A on my cargo-less Dolphin. Hull about 79%. Never met a Thargoid.

Arrived on a star, scooped, and hit around 92% heat right before I left the scoop zone... there it is on the top right panel.


"Hazardous Material Detected".


What. The. .

Had you just performed a neutron star jump? I haven't had this since I stopped using them. I also repaired my sensors though.
 
I got a "Hazardous Material Detected" message last night while I was fighting an assassination target. I was overheating due to using a SCB when out of heat sinks. So I think it's something to do with a module overheating.

never.

aye. i think this is what it is. i overheat.

i wonder what kind of material our FSD use?

hell, what kind of fuel do we use every time we refuel anyway? i never bothered to find out...
 
Have ever multicrewed or hired a shipmate? If so they have left you a little present in your ship. All you have to do now is find it. (And don't forget to use Detol)
 
I had this exact thing last night...wasnt really paying attention at the time and was scooping fuel, assumed I just got too close even though Im very rarely that careless.

Weird thing is where I am right now...4klys from Sag A as the crow flies and Ive been out here since last week. Id all but forgotten about this then read this thread and it all came back...weird ^

I just saw this message myself, and I am a hair over 300 ly from Sag A, on my way back to the bubble.
 
Just had the same thing happened while supercharging my FSD on a neutron star, 16k Ly from home in the middle of nowhere. My FSD health dropped to 76%, hopefully i got an AFM onboard to prevent further disasters, but i would be glad to know what was this "hazardous substance".
