No Time Slot = Fleet Carrier Jump Failed

[[VR] Mad Mike]

i had this too last night. it wasnt a huge issue i just wanted to move my carrier out of the spawn system but as it happens i can live with it where it is for now.

i would say things may calm down soon.......... however now colonisation is a thing i suspect a lot more players will start using carriers and moving them more often, as such the base line use i expect will go up and stay higher than before so maybe FD do need to pay for some more hamsters to go in the wheel.

Then the next ship needs to be a bigger hauler!

I am half expecting the fix to be going back to the fixed jump timer system that was in place at the start of the first phase of the beta for FCs, 2 hours to jump and 30 minutes cooldown.

Maybe people will just go back to hauling the old fashioned way.

i kind of hope not.

imo other than a taxi across the bubble this is a really good (best?) use of a fleet carrier imo, at least until we get the panther clipper

Click the jump button when the clock reads the top of the minute, XX:XX:00 time slots are generated every minute. That should allow you to jump.

worked for me - thanks

With everyone and their cockpit cat jumping around the bubble trying to find CMM Composites, no surprise it is a bit busy...

I finally got a slot a few minutes ago, with just under an hour to jump time.

Hmmm... wonder what the steam charts are showing activity to be?

It's still busy now, even though CMMs are abundant.

I don't think they anticipated the FC demand would be so high.

What time slot???!!! I am an independent Fleet Carrier operator... what central authority do I have to apply for a carrier jump slot? The game god? A server limitation should not show through to the front of the game play! FDev needs to fix it!

Geez, I foolishly canceled my one hour 30 minutes jump slot.... thinking, hey... last time I played this thing years ago, it took 5 minutes to jump the ship! Something is wrong with this 1+ hr .... Whatever that is... this one hour jump slot makes fleet carriers not very useful.

So you are saying that my 5 Billion ship, that I played 1000+ hours to get, is unusable when needed the MOST?
NOT MENTIONNING THE ARKs!

FDEV, FIX TIME SLOTS CARRIER NOW!!!

Exactly that.... not only that.... it appears that there is a "bureaucracy" behind it, and there are limited time slots to jump your $5B ship, probably managed by the Vogons. GET IN LINE! And bring your towels!

Cheers to all

Just keep requesting to get a slot as they clear. The queue's full and you just have to keep submitting.

Finally back to the bubble now I can't log in come on Frontier this game is getting worse not better!!!

They’re great for bulk. But some people seem to have forgotten that our ships can travel outside the system without a carrier when collecting the smaller quantities.

smaller quantities.

So.... Have you seen what building the smallest entry level outpost to get into a system takes?

OMG, thank you so much for that info. I was starting to get upset that i couldn't move my carrier to an administrator to remove some ship packs

Not for me. Long processing spinner and then no time slot. I’m pretty sick of this. You spend hours just trying to move the damn thing.

Jumping the carrier still takes one hour 11 minutes. That's unplayable.

This is completely waste of time. Deactivating all services that can be deactivated, and going dormant. Going back to DCS.
