System Colonization Assistance Megathread

After two sessions along with help from KOlley, Blaggerdy and those unnamed who dropped materials off as well, the construction progress is now at 50% with just under 20 days remaining and after hauling about 13k of Titanium I'm estimating that I should have the remaining materials delivered with 8-9 days remaining on the timer (as long as I can keep that pace up, but at least I have some wiggle room if I can't haul the same amount of materials per session).

I think that if I ever do this again, I'm going to stick to a coriolis for the primary port.
Wise of you. A Coriolis is 20ish hours of pure hauling, while Orbis/Ocellus is 60+ hours.
 
 
About a week ago I asked for help here to build my primary port on COL 285 SECTOR RR-E B27-2 and I received some help (I dont know who helped but I cant thank it enough guys) and the port is about 28% done.

I still have about 21 days left and even with some dire tactics on my part (sleeping only 6 hours a day) to have time to haul materials for my port I think its going to be a real close call. If anything happens in the following days that stop me from hauling I will fail the task.

My needs of commodities is as follow:

ALUMINUM 44867
CERAMIC COMPOSITES 5022
LIQUID OXYGEN 7125
POLYMERS 2409
STEEL 67023
TITANIUM 40258
WATER 7961

Again I hope any of you guys can help me finish that port faster. In my calculations (using my own T9 that have 776 cargo) it will need another 225 deliveries to finish it.

Again any help will be appreciated. Thank you all again for your time.

Greetings,
I am requesting aid as due to a schedule change for work there is now only 5 days left and I've managed 10% solo.

The system is Crucis Sector IW-N A6-0

My goal for the system is industrial as there are 7 planetary bodies with an abundance of recourses. However in the event of failure to build the station, a search for a "better" one will be conducted as this was the first available system i had found.

Any assistance is appreciated Commanders o7

When its done, you can look at the local news and one of the permanent articles is a list of top contributors. Until then, think of them as secret santas.
 
If anyone is swinging by tucanae sector cl-x c1-7, drop off a load of steel, need 20k of it right now.

While this is achievable it is looking unlikely - 744 CMM composite delivered to assist. You can always try again if you can't find anything better (and I would suggest an outpost rather than coriolis)

My System: [COMPLETED] Col 359 Sector SS-P b7-5

Reason to get this System Colonized: I've chosen this system as it's just about the furthest out I could find in the direction of Colonia/Sag A.

I chose a Coriolis Starport so all necessary services and landing pad sizes are provided. The Port is about 650 Light seconds from the sun.

Thanks in advance for any help!

I'm about to get started... I hope my sanity is intact at the end of this!

EDIT: I just wanted to add that once my system is complete I am happy to use my carrier to help with another colonisation effort in the direction of Colonia/Sag A. On that note, is there a Discord channel where colonisation goals (such as colony bridge to Colonia) are planned?

EDIT 2: I now have the necessary 14k CMM Composites

o7 Cmdrs im currently building a planetary surface port in the System : Col 285 Sector WB-I B24-1

On planet 4 (Konig Enterprise is the Construction Site)
Reason for the system was to build a Jameson Memorial like planetary base at the edge of the bubble where Everyone is able to outfit stuff and store ships to their needs. Having beautiful sceneries aswell with atmospheric planets which have a beautiful green shimmering and be able to get back to sol or shinrarta dezhra pretty quickly (like 3 jumps with mandalay).
Im also trying to get discounts on all my markets. Already built 7 Constructions on my own with my cargo cutter but now its a quite tough job without a carrier and a construction this big. Im really happy about anything that is contributed!
My system is a Hightech/Military system with High safety cuz i built quite a few military settlements so u probably wont get bothered by any criminal scum.
After building the Planetary Port i plan to build more Science settlements or installations to get the Tech level as high as i can so everyone can outfit a huge Variety of Modules and other Stuff.

Current Mat list:
Aluminium x 40.219
Liquid Hydrogen x 10.798
Steel x 62.911
Titanium x 36.243

im currently trying to get all the cmm-composites done which i not listed.
See you out in the black cmdrs.

I've been trying to land cargo on the Orbital Construction Site but pirates keep appearing, even when I'm landed on the pad.

Which is fine, as normally when you're in a station, or very near it, if a pirate opens fire the weapons platforms attack them - so the pirates usually withhold their fire.

However, these pirates don't hold fire, even right by the orbital platform - and when they open fire, the platform joins in the attack WITH the pirate, attacking me, the architect. Result is, of course, insta-death (they're station weapons) and total loss of building commodities.

Is there a thread on this, or other bugs, in this forum? I could only find a discussion about it on Steam, but with no real answers as to whether this bug is being addressed.
 
Do you have any bounties etc. if so pay them off elsewhere. I have been shot while clean, but usually in crossfire between authorities and a wanted NPC, and not more than a couple of stray shots

No, no bounties or anything like that. Totally clean and allied with the faction.

Latest of many, many landings had someone (the platform) launching multiple missiles "incoming missile" warnings appeared and I couldn't see any ships on the contacts panel - that's new!

Here is the Steam thread describing the bug, with some ideas about the triggers (but no conclusions as there seem to be at least two triggers): https://steamcommunity.com/app/359320/discussions/0/600775381612502714/

Apologies if this is the wrong thread to discuss this bug, I couldn't find a more appropriate one when searching this fourm, admins please move if it should be somewhere else in the forum.
 
Heya Commanders! My System is Wregoe EC-D d12-46.

The reason for colonization: It's a really resource rich system from my poking at the planets rings. Its a bit far out along a branch so having a big station here (to me at least) seems advantageous. No only would this serve as a decent base for me and my out of the bubble mining operations and exploration, but I can use it for expanding farther (I mainly fly large ships) This is my first colonization and I realized after registering it I bit off more than I can chew. This is the starting port as well, and i had started it yesterday!

I also lack a freighter, and its a tier 3, so the help is very appreciated, so thank you in advance if you decide to help!

I haven't gotten a chance to give any mats as im still getting some money to comfortably buy them first, but i will swing back soon (hopfully)

Hi all. I'm trying to build T3 port in Pleiades Sector FM-V c2-4 on the A 2 planetk, to see if it can start selling CMMs for the region.
The construction is still under 10%.
It is under 40ls from the sun.
The name is West Habitat.
It is very painful and takes forever. If there are players that likes to help and make credits in the process, would be very appreciated.
There is a station I've build in the same system Bradley Terminal that has main components (Aluminum, Titanium, etc.), but NO CMM Composites and many others.
Thanks in advance for any help I can get!

The port is close to 20% now.
