I’ve been playing ED for around six months but have never really understood some of the mechanics of UC, if someone could enlighten me!
1) if I’ve spent days or weeks gathering scan data, when I return to a station why can I only sell one system?
2) what determines whether I can sell a particular system’s data? Is it once per station, faction, superpower, something else?
3) how does the game determine the payout for a particular system? It seems to be more than just the distance from the system as I’ve seen huge variations when selling at systems that are close together.
4) not sure if this is a glitch but soon after I started playing I scanned a system called “Page”, however it doesn’t show up on the galaxy map, eddb, etc. It would have been well inside the bubble as it was soon after I started playing and before I started venturing far. I’m not complaining as it regularly pays well, sometimes up to 1.5MCr! (but sometimes as low as a few thousand).
Thanks in advance!
