Your Questions Needed - Join the Elite Tutorial Livestream - Everything You Need to Know About Exploration

because getting ganged up on by a squad of cowardly pilots is one of the few exciting things that can still happen to experienced players? Everyone has a role to play in ED. Except cheaters.

Just a totally open question...

Who are cheaters?

Honestly I have no idea what your view is (or, without reference, what mine is) I'm just (trying) to be scientific about it! It's late so humor me!

In my personal view "cheating" means using technology outside of the intended game mechanics to kill another player. Don't ask me for details, because I don't know the first thing about it. To my own knowledge, I have not ever witnessed it in person, fortunately.
 
Are the materials found planetside completly random? Or is there an algorithm behind it all that dictates percentages somewhat like in mining?

Note I don't want to know how it works if there is. That would be a fun thing for the community to figure out.

Edit: also any plans for exploration limpets? Maybe to reveal poi in a certain radius. Or to make the poi circles on the sensors smaller. Though this might have a negative effect on say search and rescue missions.

Secondly are there any plans for animations between very close stars where they share/steal mass from each other? Blue stragglers t think they are called. Also animations for black holes taking mass from a close orbiting star?

Granted this might be a bit of a programming issue as I'm sure you don't want ships to be able to fly through the animation.

Rock Rats have already figured it all out :)
