In the case of EDDB, one thing that does confuse me: if I'm looking to buy a 'Passenger Cabin' or even a 'Cargo Rack'; under what category do I look ?

That is very tough.
I was only 18 when I met my wife, and she went away to study a degree 6 months after we met. I got to see her once every 2 to 3 weeks, and even that long was painful.
I use that kind of experience in my story, except the real love story in the book is between the young price and the princess of their enemy. Quain has 5 children with Hazel by this time and is married to her.
Meanwhile in Elite dangerous Quain is learning that he is not indestructible when going up against a wing of 3 "Dangerous" Anacondas in a hazardous resource extraction site. Escaped with 36% hull left and no shields.
This works for any kind of module you are looking for, just start typing the name of it in the box. You can search for multiple modules at once.In the case of EDDB, one thing that does confuse me: if I'm looking to buy a 'Passenger Cabin' or even a 'Cargo Rack'; under what category do I look ?
How lovely, and lucky. It's only when you lose them do you realize how different life is alone. People say "go for a walk !" or "go and have a coffee down the coffee shop !".
And I say "who with?"
But it's different now, I do have somebody, just that we can't be together at the moment .....
If you have a spare 6 or 7 billion credits, a Fleet Carrier will allow you to bring all your ships and modules with you. The Fleet Carrier can jump 500ly every 20 minutes.Pity you can't carry it with you.
It's not for me, at least not for the foreseeable future. If I really want a ship that can do everything at the same time with me, the Anaconda has so many internal slots, utility slots and weapon hardpoints you can build one that will carry more or less everything you need to do a little bit of everything.
Yes, fair enough, the ship has to be big enough to carry things. Obviously the Hauler is not.
Yes. Ok. I've got it working. I was typing items in the "Jump to a station box" and being told not found. Although I wasn't surprised.
I didn't realize the boxes were for me to type things into, to refine the search. And that what it found was listed further down as you typed.
Anyway, thanks.
I'm at just under 1 billion, and I need 1.2 billion if I want to play with a Cutter as an armed frieghterwhen I get back to the bubble. I'm not focused on maxing credits earned per hour right now. Making pirates go boom!
I can't seem to get stacking pirate massacre missions to double register the kills to work. I think it's a loop hole that has been closed.
It’s not. See my previous post

Can I abandon a passenger mission I'm having trouble with ? Of course. There may or may not be a penalty, a fine or something. It'll say in the mission description if there is. And you'll have to dock somewhere to let the passengers off, I believe. Been a long time since I did one of these.

Bloody pikers. Both of you !
I don't focus on credits per hour either.
I have never done any road to riches, or anything to do with the Thargoids or Guardians, I just play the game and let the money build up gradually.
The only reason I want a carrier is so that I can explore the extreme edges of the galaxy, and a 500 ly jump range will help.
Talking about exploring.... here's my latest video.

500Ly jump range ! Bloody hell ! I need that like a hole in the head !
Indeed! Carriers are for long-time players who have more money than they need -- a luxury item for rich players.500Ly jump range ! Bloody hell ! I need that like a hole in the head !
I have one, and I love it, but I would NOT encourage anyone to grind credits for one.
Or grind anything, ever. That's a good way to ruin your enjoyment of the game!
If you want to get somewhere in a hurry, 500ly once every 20 minutes is not very quick in the context of exploration ships capable of 60 to 70ly+ per jump, especially taking neutron star boosts into account.500Ly jump range ! Bloody hell ! I need that like a hole in the head !
Fleet Carriers are for when you really want to take a whole fleet of ships somewhere fast - including other player ships. They really come into their own with community goals that need many players and ships to cooperate to achieve some goal, such as delivering many 1000s of tons of a certain cargo to a location quickly.
It's amazing how differently we all play ED. You boys jumping to the edge of the Galaxy. Me ? Sticking very close to home. Although I'm sure it will change for me. The temptation to "spread my wings" will inevitably happen. Just not at the moment. There ......... I've admitted it ........
I'm currently at Laplace Ring in the Balante System. It's right next door to the Diagrandri System and I'm here having made a passenger drop.
The crew lounge is very well appointed and the Station has I nice feel about it. Kirby Case, the Station Manager made me very welcome, and the Controlling Authority, Li Yong-Rui, promotes opportunities for all his staff.
I have watched a few of your videos - quite relaxing while doing something else with the music etc.I don't focus on credits per hour either.

I need some credit, so before I start local exploration, I do a couple of passenger drops.
