Massive Bug in Horizons and Odyssey - Tritium Yields :)

Probably worth mentioning again that you don't have to mine tritium to run a Carrier, even out in the black. The range of a Carrier running on stored tritium is now high enough to get anywhere in the galaxy. I've still never mined any.

If you're trying a circumnavigation, you would need to resupply a few times, but that's manageable with a bit of teamwork or multiple accounts.

Just a sole explorer that likes my own company. Did stock up on tritium before I left the bubble and have enough to travel about 65,000 LY in total but at some point I'll hit bingo fuel and will need to turn around or rely on mining to make it back. :)

For those who are curious, I was interested in seeing how common atmospheric planets are in the deep and whether they have POI's. I can tell you already that they are not as common as you may think (maybe 1 or 2 in every Nth system) but they do have biologicals, so an improvement on Horizons where it was just the same same once you got a few thousand light years out of the bubble. Other POI's have pretty much disappeared as with Horizons.

My carrier is currently in the Empyrean Straits. I found a double overlap last week and went to gather some tritium. I mined for a while and ended up with a decent return (I had thought). Most rocks were 25-27%, which is better than what I saw last time I tried it.

I got bored and travelled to an LTD hotspot. I was finding tritium there too, at the same percentages and frequency as in the so-called double overlap. Awesome.

I'll need to mine some carrier fuel on my way back from Magellan's Star. I wonder if double/triple tritium hotspots are still worth making a detour? Or it's just easier to find a simple hotspot and not bother doing several additional jumps for a double/triple one?

See the post above yours - there's no difference in yields, and in fact you'll get the same Tritium yields in any Icy ring...

That's for months already. If tritium present as spot anywhere in ring (or maybe in system even), it "poisons" all other minerals. I have marked couple systems where there is no tritium spots at all, and then it is better to mine minerals there.

I’ve just bought a fleet carrier and the transportation costs for exploration are so bad. Might just decommission it and keep the cash until they actually make it reasonable. I mean it’s handy and all to have all my ships and modules nearby, but I never get to use them, as I’m just mining to feed the carrier.

is this supposed to be end game gameplay? Rubbish.
