You need route plan to make it easy. For example I mined 130t each 4 jump. Went 60000ly 1 way, now coming back in relaxed mode. I need occasional mining now.So how much of a hassle is it to mine the tritium? That's the main thing that's holding me back. I don't know how much tritium per LY the FC uses so I don't know how often I'll have to mine.
Thanks, I had not thought of following the FC and scanning systems. Were you doing a quick "honk" or doing the FSS for all the bodies then mapping the worlds that pay $$$$?You need route plan to make it easy. For example I mined 130t each 4 jump.

Install Vista Genomics. Usually, I just follow the carrier, = 7 jumps of the ship. Scan everything. Than sell & 50% to the carrier. I doubled my and carrier balance while flying 60000. However, this takes time. Expect years long trip.
You will need to mine the tritium if you have 1 way over 35000ly. Otherwise it is possible just to spend what you've loaded in the Bubble.
As for short trips, you can load foods, machines, etc. And visit distant stations around the Bubble, sell some juice for the scientistsPretty RP fun I should say. I think you can have 10000t of the tritium + 10000t of the goods.
Yes, even when jumping with my carrier I have made it my habit of exiting my carrier each jump and doing a minimum of FSS'ing the system, this can slow you down a lot when you find what's been left out there.it is surprising what has been missed.
I have a second tank on my Sidewinder for that reason, sco is only viable with the extra fuel.The SCO drinks juice, that's why I have a second tank fitted![]()
If you ask me what I do ...Thanks, I had not thought of following the FC and scanning systems. Were you doing a quick "honk" or doing the FSS for all the bodies then mapping the worlds that pay $$$$?
I think I'll do at least 5 jumps to get away from the bubble before I start doing the follow routine.
So here is your numbers:I topped off the gas tank and I now have 20,198T of Tritium, 21,368/25,000 slots taken.
That's why I work ahead of my carrierThe "following the FC" thing hit a snag yesterday. I set the destination and started the countdown then starting jumping ahead. The 2nd system had rings with Tritium but it was too late to stop the jump. I would have had to backtrack the FC 400LY or take a mining ship that far. Now I'm not going to start the FC jump until I'm halfway to the destination.
