Help, I need Ship Rats!
- Thread starter Bomba Luigi
- Start date
A lonely survivor? Multiple helpers? Pinned.
Seeing as I missed the rendezvous yesterday and when I arrived at the tea party camp it was clear that the reality glitches continue as there weren't even any tyre tracks...this planet is not right I tell you, although I'm not in a rush to leave, so I decided to do what explorers do....started exploring.
Just a few pics to start
From 250Km above basecamp I spot a mountain on the horizon
Some extreme features on this planet, great to fly over - a tourist destination perhaps?

I've put it in as a suggestion with all credit to our lonely intrepid explorer.

Yes, but where's the fun in that?
Ok I toned this GalNet article down a little bit in the hopes it will actually get published.

Submitted so cross your fingers.
I think this has taken on a life of it's own and it's not really about getting the ship back.
Although Bomba did try to steel my Sidewinder...
Logged in and out a couple times now over the days, that can't fix an exploed Asp:
btw. great Galnet Articel!
And I did never try to steal a sidewinder, all lies! I... äh... just wanted to go on the Toilet there
Better keep an eye on that one. Seems a bit tricksterous.

I'd log into Open just to do that. LOL!If only we knew where he was... Would be fun to see his face when he logs back into the game only to find his little SRV surrounded by ships, non of which can help him of course but at least we could keep him company until someone figures out what to do.
Ouch! You don't want that :O. I have flown the better part of my pilot life in a sidewinder and if it has a toilet at all it is one of those portable human excretion recycling units. yuk! 300 years of technical advancements and we have still problems with fitting, pipes and hoses, especially around the unit that filters the water from the more substantial part...And I did never try to steal a sidewinder, all lies!

Stay away from it,

If you make it to the exit - it's smooth driving all the way to the top. The other valleys also lead to freedom... eventually. Looks easy from up here, but I'm sure Peregrinus video will show a different reality on the ground. Also "Intersection of Doom" will probably be renamed "Intersection of tea and biscuits" by the time you guys arrive.
Exit point POW the ground. Drove all the way from the bottom.
Cargo left behind could suggest that it was somebody trying to bring you supplies.
Nice one Flankhard, it looks really easy from the air doesn't it!? LOL
If the canyon floor were smooth & flat then it would be a doddle, although Bomba got lucky IMO, I took a cruise around the planet and checked out some of the other canyons and many had no flat areas for landing, making driving even more difficult.
kudos on the avatar BTW, fantastic little game

Yeah, there is mountains and canyons inside the canyon. I had a POI near the intersection which I had to abandon because of it. Not to mention he has got to keep himself supplied to fix and refuel the SRV. If he and the guys helping him make it out - climbing Mount Everest is going to feel like a walk in the park.
I know the positions on the map are approximates. But it is my understanding that most of that distance was covered yesterday. They went from 15.xxxx to 11.xxxx while drinking tea!!! I know I'll get banned for saying this, but if they cut down on tea.....
