Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

The departure wake shows up as a white marker in the radar? Or should I just keep checking the contacts?

To me it has always shown as a white icon on the sensor display. That shows up even when the actual ship icon has not been showing - must have a longer detection range.

It will be on the contacts page too, this is why I always turn to scan the scum as the wake marker in the contacts page then shows their name - so I know it is the low-life not some miner.

As usual, i find myself on the other side of the galaxy when interesting stuff happens.I still haven't got to grips with the intricacies of core mining, nor am i likely to in the forseeable future.And though i could, i suppose, have taken the swift road to the bubble for the beta, i chose not too, instead wandering along my somewhat erratic and seemingly purposeless way amongst the stars.

Having forded the Arcadian Stream along it's western boundary, picking up the odd notable feature amongst the plethora that abound, I eventually pierced
the southern border of The Veils, plunging ever onward and after an incursion of several hundred light years, paused to consider my options.

I spent a pleasant hour or so examining the map,eating dinner and enjoying the view as a nearby planet rolled across the sky..
To my right the Trojan Belt, to my left, the Formorian Frontier. Ahead lies Acheron. Names rich in history and redolent in lore But which direction to choose?

Or perhaps i'll get a better view from the roof, or the basement, it's not too far, either way.

Great post!!
 
Um... well, I didn't go into the black as planned. Instead, I ised the 'Conda and made my Cutter a miner. It's called "Mass Sponge Migration" until I find a better name. Not sure how it will pan out yet as I'm just working out an inexpensive loadout with what I have. Good fun though!

EDIT - eek, the "ised" had something before that got filtered out. Ah well.

Here's Mass Sponge Migration doing her best to impersonate a Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird:

I'm being dense...what did you do to your Conda? You didn't sell her did you?

I owned a hauler once ... the VR view was ... traumatic.

LOLOLOL


Are you guys tired of me posting Cutter mining shots yet? :p

I promise it won't be for much longer! At least it's pretty, right?

I never tire of great photography, and there's a lot of it on this page!
