There's another bulk carrier (definitely not moving) in PLEIADIES SECTOR IH-V C2-5
It shows up as a target in the nav panel, so easy to find ("THOMAS BULK CLASS CARGO SHIP DFX-056"). Lots of mostly worthless canisters, and not seen any materials.
There's also a thargoid in there giving it a bit of a probe. The Thargoid turns hostile if you scan it (I guess if you shoot it too!), otherwise it mostly ignores you and leaves after a bit.
Cheers.
Always worth checking the front page before posting [up]
Well other than for the fact that he says the one he mentions has no materials (which is why I was looking for one, hence the trip to Dav's Hope) and the fact that the one I asked about was (when in Wolf 485A) only two jumps away from where I was, as opposed to about 450LY away in the Pleiades - bear in mind that I'm in a Corvette that jumps 20Ly. Oh and the fact that the one I asked about is still actually shown as being in Wolf 485A on the front page. Finally, the fact that I didn't particularly want to spend my Sunday tabbing between this thread and the game, sticking systems from the list into the galmap to check how far away they were, especially since the one ship I
had checked indicated that the most recently listed system on the front page might not be current anyway. So yeah, what did the Romans ever do for us?
Heh, always worth checking carefully and not skimming reading it!
I think you've just assumed a few things about what I was actually doing there with your crack about 'skimming the thread'. I didn't come to this thread to
search for a ship at all - I remembered the one in Wolf 485A from a while ago and since I was only two jumps away from there, I just jumped there. Then when I arrived and the ship wasn't there, I googled to see was going on and got links to both the Canonn website (which wouldn't open) and this thread. Then I did a control-F search on this thread to find the entry for the specific ship I asked about, then saw that it was still shown as being in Wolf 485A anyway but with an entry that suggested it may have moved. Then I asked a specific question about it.
It's all good, I've got what I needed now.
