So does this mean Fuel Rat clients in the sun's Exclusion Zone no longer need a Tactical Face Plant?Dropping out of Supercruise on a wingmate using nav-lock will no longer drop the player a significant distance away.

If it wasn't tested during the beta, it's definitely something i'm happy to help check out post-update.

Just managed to be in need of fuel for the first time, jumped to a dwarf with the last fumes without noticing during a conversation...
3 Months worth of data......
Luckily, I was rescued really fast considering I am still ~23kly out from the bubble.
Thanks again to the Fuelrats and everyone involved, you guys rock!

Does anyone still BGS?
Just I was idly flicking thru our systems, and noticed the 13th Legion have attacked and taken over CD-76 1091. I'm certain it was ours once, but meh, only thing is if they start going for our other systems I guess.
Just brilliant! Single best Fuel Rat documentary video I've ever seen!Cmdr Kahless joined up about a month ago to research for this awesome piece! Deffo worth checking out, it has some orange in it!

Bravo sir! I have to confess it's probably now been years since I was last active as a Fuel Rat (is there a way to get at our personal log of Fuel Rats rescues so I can find out?). How time flies!Silent in here!
Anyway, I finally managed to become Elite in Elite
... and hopefully I'll be able to Rat again soon, my Rattalooga needs a good brush-the-dust-off ^,^/
Watched it all, very extensive, nice job.Cmdr Kahless joined up about a month ago to research for this awesome piece!
Just tested our Kiwi server, it is working normally. There shouldn't be a "custom server" dropdown box, so I doubt you're in the right place. Just click the "Get Help" followed by the "I want to chat" button on the Fuel rats webpage.I'm trying to sign up to be a rat, but I can't get the Kiwi IRC to work. Is it down?
Also, they seem to have changed things since the joining instructions on fuelrats.com were written. There's a drop-down box at the front saying "Custom server" and squillions of choices, but I couldn't find anything "ratty". I filled in the other details, but when I try to connect it says "We couldn't connect to that server Unknown domain name or host."
Sorry if it has been asked before but I am out exploring and currently trying to experiment with the limits of my current ship build (I don't know why jump range displays as null in coriolis?) but it is ~60lys laden (current) with the guardian fsd booster de-activated and around ~ 66-67lys (laden) / 72.5lys (unladen & on fumes) with guardian fsd booster active.
Right now I am trying to see how much distance I can travel in SC with all modules (except the essentials i.e. thrusters, fsd & life support)
de-activated. So now I am at ~4.1 lys from current system and towards my next waypoint. I've got around ~ 30% fuel left, of which about one third is required for the jump to the next star system. So I need to keep an eye on it now v.carefully..
1st Question is, in the scenario that I am at the outskirts of the galaxy where star density is very low and trying to reach an unreachable star system, at which point I must activate guardian booster and attempt the jump? By the looks of it I can travel around a max of 5 lys in supercruise so if a system is at a maximum of 77.5 Lys I can theoretically reach it (unladen of course cause right now I am fully laden - carrying 8 cofins aka oeps). The guardian fsd booster requires more fuel to operate so timing is crucial.
2nd Question: I've got my jumponium mats maxed out (literally.: I've got 250 25% injections, 200 50% and 150 100%). Does use of jumponium require additional fuel? I don't want to spend all my fuel only to find out I can't use jumponium..
Thanks for any advice & fly safe & stay safe.
