Last engineer unlocked. Phew, all done with that.

Sorry, I meant housing in general, all types. Leisure is where I'm seeing opinion polls, cat media, classic, financial projections, propaganda, etc.

I have done a ton of habitat data downloads, just like many people in this thread. Never seen one, and I was looking for them. I've probably downloaded 50 opinion polls at this point and not one of them has showed up. I'll try a spot and see if they pop up and post here.

Just to be very clear on this, a data port need not be in a HAB to be a habitat data port:

That is in the loading bay of the STO building in an extraction settlement. This is just one example. There are more. When I say "habitat data port" I do not mean HAB. I mean habitat data port, as opposed to an extraction data port, for example.

The type of port isn't restricted to its building type and so can be found in a lot wider locations than just HABs. The issue is the RNG and the stupidly long list of data types in Odyssey:

• Data: 115 (only 50 used!)
• Goods: 43
• Assets: 33
  • Tech: 11
  • Circuits: 12
  • Chemicals: 10

This... is badly designed. If they deleted the 65 data types that aren't used (or made it so they appeared as a separate "loot" table to the stuff that is, so it exists only as "additive" to the data we need) then the problem would rapidly reduce. That would still mean getting data is the slowest method though... most settlements only have 1-4 data ports compared to the vast array of places we can get the other stuff.

The only other way to recitify this is to allow us to trade for data (this would instantly make it OK).

I know and thanks for posting. I'm done with all media and have downloaded tons of it from all settlement types. We were talking about Smear Campaigns, which I am guessing will come from data points that have other related items like propaganda, opinion polls, etc.

Yes, they're the habitat ones. I've never seen opinion polls from any other type of port. This is another issue of course... too few types of data port (so you cannot narrow down your search lower than several dozen types).

 

[Karmix]

My guess is they'll use the other data types at some point. Be easier to introduce new mods, missions and mat requirements if they are already in the data tables.

Wishful thinking to introduce more at this point lol. They'll need to clean everything else up first.

I know I've found at least one in OPR, and I think @Factabulous said the same.

For the past couple of days I've made repeated visits to a mining settlement that has seven data ports of assorted types... kind of a shotgun approach.

Yeah, some of those Mining bases have HUGE Habs, I was finiding quite a few OP.

@Retropolitan and @Factabulous, just being clear as we are talking about a few things in the thread. You both have found Smear Campaigns? Just want to confirm that is what you meant.

Also, Retropolitan, you mentioned visiting a site for the past several days. Have you found any Smear Campaigns at that site in the past couple of days?

No, I was responding to a comment about Opinion Polls.

I've never seen one anywhere.

Ok, that makes sense. I made a video of a great settlement to get everything you need from leisure type settlements pretty quickly at one site if that helps anyone. Below is the link to that thread. Link to video below that. I got all 40 opinion polls, financial projections, cat media, classic entertainment, multimedia entertainment and others at this one place. Only takes 3 mins+ to hit all 6 data ports.

Great farming place for Opinion Polls, Cat, Classic and Multimedia

Hi everyone, I found a decent location to farm all engineering media needed from 6 data points that are very close together and don’t require any combat if you’re careful. Thought I would make a post for the community. You can farm about 60 data points per hour this way. I’ve been rotating...

Now that i'm almost done with engineering suits and weapons, I want to publicly apologize to all the widows, all the families that I broke. Know that it was not your beloved fault, but mine and mine only. I wanted those upgrades and so I killed, killed and killed again. Even the covert missions were done by killing everybody, but only after the alarm was put down. Know that I paid every bounties, and did some ships missions in order to get back that reputation from the factions that I lost, so i'm now clean and back as a valuable member of the pilot federation. Thank you very much.

Got the last engineer on my list unlocked. I guess it depends on the order you do them in which would be the last one for everyone. Screenshot of his mods.

Pretty decent mod list. Night Vision.

Fun stuff.

Where did you find genetic repair meds? I have a couple but no idea where they come from and never seem to find any?

Thanks, I'll change location and shop about

I think genetic repair medicines also can be found in research buildings.

 

[Galafrey]

Thanks guys, found one. Two more to go.

I have specifically seen smear campaign plans 3 days ago. It absolutely has to do with system state and the type of building. It's not on habitat downloads. It came from either operation or security.

Sounds like Election + OPT, might take a look on this.

 

[Karmix]

Can you take a screenshot of the ones you looted in the data panel and post them here?

Its not election I checked yesterday. It might be civil liberty or at a system in war but the factions settlement you go to isnt in conflict. It's likely one of those.

Dude, I just want a surpressor on my plasma pistol. I don't have half the mats... and I have 28M Cr worth of Odyssey stuff!

Engaging, deep, and fun game design at his best

(and yes, i'm in a really bad mood)
