Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

I don't know if I trust the formulas for calculating combat rank increase. I think experience points are assigned some other way. Each threat 8 wing pirate assassination mission I do vs. 3 x master or dangerous Vultures and a dangerous or deadly FDL gets me 1% combat rank on my way from Dangerous to Deadly.
I don't get that much for killing 3 Elite Vipers or Eagles.
56 wing pirate assassination missions to go....
 
And I just gained a combat rank shooting some guard behind a building. I imagined that would happen in some space battle. It was dark maybe the Pilot's Federation got confused. No actually last I knew I had about 1/3 of that rank left. So on foot missions have .. I didn't know that. 🎵 And that's one to grow on. But what I was even more excited about was the prize of 1 Manufacturing Instruction.
 
Decided to turn back to the bubble for several reason
  1. See how much money I actually made.
  2. Get back up to speed with hauling and combat.*
  3. *So I can join in some lucrative CGs
  4. Fix up the DBX so it is better for Planetary exploring.
  5. Fly ships I enjoy rather than just think they work well.
  6. Be in range if anything fun and festive turns up.
  7. If 1 & 3 work well actually get my own Fleet Carrier.
I am around 3,700 light years out.

I'm sure you'll come to love the FC!
 
Well that's a result. Even though I had to abandon my exploration trip due hull damage when only 1700 LY out and return to the bubble asap, after I sold what I did manage to get to Cartographics I've now gone from Elite to Elite I as an explorer. (y)
Congrats! You might want to fit a couple of Auto Field-Maintenance Unit to your ship, it will avoid you to have to abort when this sort of accident occurs.

Thanks!

Actually I do have one of those already (only got room for one) and used it a few times in the past as well. I don't think it can fix hull damage though, only modules as far as I know.

Correct AFMU is only for modules including cockpit window so long as its not broken. Repair limpet control and at least 4t cargo space into which you can synthesise 4 limpets at a time for 10 iron needed to self repair hull. And strong shields.... Did I mention strong shields are good on exploration ships 😆
 
Me feel like Mandalorian~!!
