I have been trying to land at Darnelles Progress for 2 days now to get the meta alloys and move on with the engineering. Every time it hangs during entering orbital cruise then logs and gives me an orange sidewinder connection error. Any ideas on what the issue is at server side ? gameplay is ok everywhere else running on an ASUS ROG Nvidea 860m mid graphics intel 7, no hardware issues at all here.
Planet landing ORANGE SIDEWINDER ERROR
- Thread starter napalm9
- Start date
I have the same problem and connection code but at Farseer Inc, can't leave planet either.
I tried that twice, my ship would be transferred to orbit but once I initiate supercruise the game crashes again.By base game I mean Elite Dangerous, not arena or horizons, just ion case anyone doesn't know what I mean.
this sucks. so after trying for ages, im now 10.mm away from mcquin engineering planet. trying to fly back so i can reload in base game is going to take me 9 days. was told by frontier my ticket would get addressed in one week.. freaking great
bamm, after enough tries it just worked. supercruise that is. intermediate problem. comes and goes i guess. im now free at last. good luck commanders
The frontier support FAQ on Orange Sidewinder does point out that maybe you will need to have your commander re-located by support staff.

What does the connection error I am seeing mean? - PC
CONNECTION ERROR MESSAGES Error message What does it mean? What can I try? Orange Sidewinder This is a generic error which means that you cannot connect to the server. This most often happens ...

5 days ago i submit the ticket regarding orange sidewinder error (with no response from Frontier) and finally today i menage to continue the game following some instructions on various forums.
First thing that i made was to go back on the base station and than exit the game complete.
Then i start game again in original Elite (non Horizon) to be sent to orbit automatically , because base game not support planetary landing.
once i was in orbit i did engage Hyperspace jump to another (any) system that I checked on left panel (need to find some system that is not obscured with planet)
AND THAT IS ALL.
Do not make mistake , like i did, and DO NOT ENGAGE supercruise because you will be stuck in orbit far away from the base and only solution will be self destruct.
Hope that will be helpful to somebody.
