Yes that was the point of my post.
HIP 22460 Permit Lock Initiated
- Thread starter Paul_Crowther
- Start date
I've heard it said that it crashes lately!
seems like if that happened, then that would have been mentioned already and looking at windows event logs wouldn't have been needed.
I get there is a crash reporter. but it doesn't seem to trigger reliably and it's unclear if there is any monitoring taking place for non-triggered events.
ROFL that is awesome
If there's something I've learned about this game, it's that nothing is impossible no matter what the game designers tell you.
Since when is 10 C permit locked? Wasn't it only B?
Wasn't it only B?Since a particular ED youtuber made a video about "some dude" who yeeted his SRV from 10 C to 10 B...Since when is 10 C permit locked?
Shut up...no they didn't. Really?
See, @Disemboweled Ego , this is why we can't have nice things!
Who made the video?
The youtube video came out 3 hours ago, the permit lock appeared roughly 2 hours ago. The posts detailing the actual event have been in this thread for two weeks.Shut up...no they didn't. Really?
That's faster than when they nerfed the Sagittarius A* payout from over a hundred million credits to a few hundred thousand.
Aww...and it was the Burr Pit video. Shame.
The insane ideas commanders come up with to circumvent the permit locks.
Have you tried doing the same thing in other permit-locked planetary bodies?
One might call it insane, I'd call it audacious and cool!
Congratulations on a marvelous expedition, Commander.
You know, if you play Skyrim and are inside a stronghold, such as Whiterun, and use the console command TCL (toggle collision on/off) you can walk outside the walls without the loading screen you get at the front gate. Of course, all you see is generic trees, maybe a few buildings that are supposed to be nearby, but nothing loads because you didn't go through the loading screen.
I kind of guessed that's why you didn't see anything there - no loading screen as you enter "glide mode" because you didn't go through the regular door.
But it was extremely well-played.
The reality in Elite is much weirder - in one of my failed attempts I managed to land without relogging (which meant taking the collision damage) and ended up in a state in which my SRV was not rotationally or gravitationally locked to the planet I was on and got bounced around by rapidly moving hills.I kind of guessed that's why you didn't see anything there - no loading screen as you enter "glide mode" because you didn't go through the regular door.
I was actually trying this yesterday/today, but the surfaces aren't solid and glitch out instead of getting higher resolution as you get closer. There also aren't actually that many candidates for easily doing this since it requires a low-ish gravity close binary with different planet types -- it's a pretty strict and rare requirement.
Video I made of this, the start is sped up but the entire thing took about 10min after getting a successful launch:
