Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

[Miscellaneous]

It tilts slightly like that for me. I'm only aware of that slight tilt - but I have had the cockpit, system map, and main menu all bug out and become sort of unhinged.

Now I have collected about 3/5 of the materials for my grand plans to upgrade two suits and a few guns. I had to shoot a lot of people. I'm intermittently pretty dumb and pretty deadly

So they never know what they're gonna get when rupee noon comes to town

Just installed my double engineered Johnson rods on my landing struts enabling me to land virtually anywhere as long as one touches the ground....

In a double engineered entendre, last time I visited Elvira, in Khun, I proposed to install the double engineered johnson rod on her landing struts.

Regarding personal equipment upgrade, I have a pre-engineered (mag size) G2 TK Aphelion, will upgrading it to G3 remove the mod??
Would be real nice to have G3+mag size on it.

I can tilt it a little with the T and G keys (galaxy map pitch keys), but it's not as pronounced as I remember. Maybe there's another way yet.

Iirc, you pick a planet then zoom right into it. Then zoom back out. Then you can do something like right mouse hold and move it around to give a 3D rendition.

Sorry if that sounds vague. I'll give it a go when I'm awake.

How do I get the passport photo part of the INARA sigpic to show up here?

I don’t know but there is a photo looking like your forum avatar showing in your sig as I look at it so unless your passport photo is different it has worked.

Oh. Okay.
I take it this means I will have to purge my browser cache so it shows up to me...

No it shouldn't do.

OK, I knew I'd seen this before - @Codger posted about it then I tried:

Newcomer / Intro - What are you up to?

What's the rationale? I can imagine it will be busy week. Are you trying to achieve high rewards or trying to avoid too negative a rep by the end of the week? Better massacre and combat payouts.

forums.frontier.co.uk

However, it no longer seems to work.

I think - I may be wong - that if you got to Commander --> Commander Settings then scroll. down to "My Name and Avatar" you can select it there. Obvisouly, you'll have to upload an image. This is in the "new" Inara. If you siwtch to the "old" Inara, there's a separate section for "signatures".

It works just fine in INARA itself. But here, I do not see my profile picture in the signature pic.

Besides, does this sigpic automatically update (here in the forum), if changes in my status occur?

Oh, do you mean the avatar pciture you have on these boards? Like the one for me:

Well, sort of. You can put this picture also into your INARA signature (You have a pic of one of your ships (a Mamba?) in that place, it seems). I see many commanders who have chosen to do so. But for some reason, the picture does not show up for me when I put the link INARA provides into the according box on this forum. My stats and all show up, but the mugshot (the same as in my avatar) is nowhere to be seen.
@aRJay is apparently able to see it, though.

Hmm - to me, your face in your Inara signature is the same as your avatar on these boards.

When you read this post, press CTRL-F5 on your keyboard which will force the browser to reload all images for this page and you should then see your up to date image. You have the older version of the image cached in your browser and I think it takes about a month for it to expire and reload it unless you force it to reload like this.

Yes, there's a way to tilt the map, but I forget the keys and/or mouse controls required. I used to do it now and then.

Ditto. Didn't even know it still works.
IIRC it had something to do with zooming out of planetary map while rotating it.

EDIT: Tried that (3.8), doesn't work anymore - getting out of planet map doesn't happen until rotation stops.

Hashtag meetoo.

Ship recalled and about to land. Got some Osseus and some Tussock (neither were new codex ones for me though.) Was about to leave this moon then suddenly noticed my SRV is right next to some bacterium, so I might try to get a full set of those as long as it doesn't take a month of Sundays...

I'm almost 7,000 LY from Sol now and still heading towards Temple, but going in this direction the Inner Orion Spur seems like it goes on forever. I want to see what the exobiology is like when I get to the next region. I had a pretty good 130-odd jump route plotted towards Temple Region that I found on EDSM, but lost it when the Mauve Adder decided to intervene and I'm now plotting routes again in bits and pieces, with jumps of ten or so at a time going in roughly the same direction...

You need to close all copy's of IE or whatever browser you use and reopen them, I can see a picture of what I assume you put there (green skin, purple hair).

I use the SRV external camera to find bacteria and fungi, it's so much easier with it. When I make plots on the galmap I always choose a fuel star as the last and I always bookmark it in the plot in case I need to replot, the number of jumps in your plot can grow or shrink every time you log out and back in.

THanks for that advice. I'll give the external camera a try but will probably give up on this lot of bacterium as the one sample I have isn't a new one for me and I would now like to move on.

The routes I plot are all stars apart from red dwarfs as there's more chance of finding the valuable bodies such as water worlds and terraformables (unless I'm in an area where there's few stars but right now there are plenty as I've reached a spiral arm.)
