New Tourist Beacons

[CMDR Lucienn]

Some of you might know me as that "crazy tourist beacon guy", for good reason, too.

Anyway, I've noticed that since 2.4, we've gotten new tourist beacons in Elite, but unlike previous patches, they have not been mentioned at all in the patch notes (the last three times they were added they were included in patch notes).

Has anyone seen mention of these new beacons anywhere? They are numbered 0708+ in the game.

As this is the first time I hear about it, I guess the answer is no.

But I would also like to know. I love touring the beacons.

I've been seeing missions to "Shadragon's Home", I think that's new?

Well, Shadragon was always a friendly chap.

I noticed some destinations I had't seen before after 2.4 dropped but I assumed that was just due to shuffling the deck so to speak, as there are so many that I am sure I haven't seen them all (despite having done literally hundreds of sightseeing tours).

Shadragons is an old one I'm afraid. Last year abouts.

The missions have been shuffled a bit with 2.4, but the last documented addition was last year, while we now have beacons referencing events that happened this October. So there's definitely at least 3 new ones based on my listing, but could be more.

The ones I'm interested in are listed as series 4 here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...wD1Ax_GaDz4d7l8KD76kSzX4DEk/edit?usp=drivesdk
