Ship docks, CQC structures and other new in-game assets

And another non-dockable megaship added by 3.1:

- Sagan Class Tourist Ship TLS-051, currently orbiting Kashyapa 1 in Kashyapa, with the following flight plan: Gandharvi, Kashyapa, Skaudai CH-B d14-34, Colonia, Skaudai CH-B d14-34, Kashyapa

Since we're just a few hours away from server downtime, it should end up in Skaudai CH-B d14-34 next.

This is a truly awesome and comprehensive list - respect sir! I was going to transcribe the one's that I'm missing back into my own but there appear to be so many that I've taken the coward's way out and simply referenced your spreadsheet from the OP.

You're welcome, Thanks

Is anyone else seeing megaships still where they were before the Thursday update?
GRN-542, UVM-617 and LNP-723 are all still in their previous systems, while PNF-542 has not arrived in Colonia from Boewnst KS-S c20-959 as expected.

Wondering if this is a local issue or whether the ones in the Sol bubble are similarly taking the week off?
(Or do they move at a time other than Thursdays?)

Could have been issues with todays jumps - the Aegis megaships didn't jump on the restart, but did do later (FD may have done this manually). Will be annoying if they've messed up all the jumps.

New Dockable megaship "Damask Rose" at Centralis A7A.

Do you have a picture?

It's not listed here https://cdb.sotl.org.uk/megaships so I've asked them on Discord why it's not listed, EDDB and EDSM have it recorded though. It would be intresting to know when it materialised there, but those tools don't offer that info.

Update: It is recorded here: https://cdb.sotl.org.uk/systems/76 Just not as a MEGA SHIP, which is odd.

However this site is quite detailed: https://cdb.sotl.org.uk/installations

Other dockable Mega Ships in Colonia are: https://cdb.sotl.org.uk/stations#Cruiser They have catogorised them as Civilian Cruisers for some reason.

They got back to me on Discord and "Damask Rose" only appeared yesterday, all the others appeared from 3.1

A few of the dockables are a bit older than that - Foster Terminal is 26 July 3303 (2.3.10 release) and Dove Enigma is 11 January 3304 (for the expedition)

The Moore's Charm and Robardin Rock asteroid bases are also from 26 July 3303, while TolaGarf's Junkyard is 25 April 3303.

I didn't mean them, I meant the Installations and Mobile Mega Ships.

But your specific dates bodes the question, "Where did you get the dates from?"

 

[Ian Doncaster]

But your specific dates creates a question, "Where did you get the dates from?"

From watching them being added to the game over the last few years

Most of it I've written down at https://cdb.sotl.org.uk/history ("founded" or "constructed" keywords most useful - you can assume the primary station was constructed on the founding date of the system)

The dockable megaship ACS Overwatch has been moved from Lambda Arae to CF 16001, the first time it has ever moved since it has been added. EDDB says it happened this past Thursday as well.

Interesting, thanks for the update, why did it move though? Is there a story or reason for the move, or is it an accidental bug or something FDev have changed that hasn't been communicated?

I wonder if any other Dockable Mega Ships that have previously been permanent have moved, easy to check though by using EDDB.

---

I've checked all the others that I know off and they are all stationed where they should be and haven't changed, except for the ones that move normally.

Ooops - I've been neglecting this thread! It's too late on a Friday now but I'll be trying to get some of the latest updates into the OP early next week.

[Alec Turner]

Oops (again), still behind on this thread but ... just wanted to say that I decided to go out and try some stealth data piracy today and it's really good fun and a nice change of pace. Had to visit three installations before I found one with hackable data terminals and in the process realised that installations have evolved a fair bit since my early visits. They're no longer all just characterless shinies to go and look at, some seem to have back stories (e.g. I managed to rescue the occupied escape pod from the story at Istanu), some have trespass zones and large fleets of openly hostile guards (Izanagi) and the whole silent running gameplay around stealing data (and wow ... sooo much data!) at Inti was awesome. I'm going to be re-visiting a whole pile of these over the coming days and will be adding brief notes in the OP about what you can find there.

 

[Alec Turner]

OK - all caught up now I believe. Special thanks to bAdBud for his stirling work and also to Ian Doncaster for his detailed installation spreadsheet which I've now linked into the OP.
