What exactly constitutes a green gas giant?

Flippin' 'eck... remember that 5km jaunt through the mountains the other day? Turns out that was a First!
Just realised that I handed that in at a PP 2.0 Reinforcing system, but didn't get a popup for merits. Do I recall correctly I probably got a bunch of merits but exo doesn't show the popup and you have to go and look at the merit score elsewhere? (Which I can't do really because I don't know what the merit numbers were before I handed it in!)
 
Hi :)

It's one of the reasons I like Tactical Ice. And this of course:

That takes me back!....I used to love watching that program. :D
Strangely enough I wouldn't mind seeing something like this design for a dedicated trading ship in Elite Dangerous. It's almost like a Panther Clipper (If you close one eye and squint a little) it's got those four thrusters / undercarriage legs so it's roughly similar. I also like the cockpit design, but perhaps without the centre piece.

Jack :)

There was a time where exobio wouldn't count towards the merits. But I think that's history, now.
What I could think of is that it wasn't a strobghold of your power...
 
Well, I just found out you can't max out a T-8 with cargo racks unless you uprate the thrusters first. But sometimes these things work out, because that forced me to go looking for the highest-population system nearby to have a decent chance of buying 5A engines. And that system turned out to have two surface refineries I didn't know were there, and it's one hop away from my nice new system, and because it's a huge system, there's enough refresh of supply I can't exhaust it by hauling.

Oh, also, I claimed a system.

EDIT: Posted about it a bit in the thread, you know, that one. https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...on-beta-details-feedback.634055/post-10577220
