Ships Suit engineering question

[SteveWW57]

Just been AFK giving the dog his last walk of the night and had a couple of thoughts that you might not have considered.

Batterys. Stock up before you go (max 100) and use them frugally. If you need to recharge energy, use your ship/SRV.

Have multiple SRVs available on your ship. CMDRs have lost theirs through accidents and it is a long way to get another.

Does not matter. Dock your ship close, and take an APEX.

Contiku has Jansky Vision L 197 ls.
Bard has Arrhenius Terminal L 1,554 ls.

I may have locations for a couple more Maverick Suits.

TY Steve I bought both G3 suits

Can you? I have always obtained new ones from stations or carriers.

I said; More space = LESS TRIPS.

Space for what?

Exobiology does not use Backpack.
It's like scanning planets... but plants. So you dont need to put anything in backpack

Extra backpack capacity is good only for a Maverick since this is the suit you will do mission in settlements and pick stuff.
But since there are no settlements out there in the black, you dont need a Maverick suit, only an Artemis suit

I thought we could, I remember my SRV being destroyed and I had to use materials to build a new one.... I was out in the black driving and I drove off a huge cliff and it blew up, i was back in my ship and i had to syth a new one.... maybe i am remembering wrong.

I see that was a question I couldn't find out anywhere on the net so far, thank you so much for confirming this for me. My plan still requires me to get G5 on all and put engineering into them. Ive got G3 art, G3 Mav, and G1 dom. I do have mats, I know how to get weapon schematics FAST, the rest of the mats I need to farm from military low security over and over again.... anyone wanna join me in my private group to raid? hahaha usually I dont play with others. anyway the mats for the engineering arent they also picked up in the settlements?

 

[Seljdon]

For Suits total mats for upgrades (not engineering)

Suit Schematic	93
Health Monitor	93
Power Regulator	93
Manufacturing Instructions	93
Aerogel	80
Titanium Plating	80
Carbon Fibre Plating	80
Graphene	240

for weapons

Weapon Schematic	124
Manufacturing Instructions	124
Compression-Liquified Gas	62
Ionised Gas	62
Tungsten Carbide	160
Microelectrode	160
Weapon Component	160
Optic Fibre	160

the weapon one is for four different weapons, none of which are plasma, however i am thinking about the shotgun maybe....

Backpack space has zero relevance to exploration.

It will later. Thought i dont plan on going back to the bubble doesn't mean i wont run into others or npc locations to haul stuff off from in the future.
