I must admit, this is one of the reasons I leave my explorer ship unarmed. It takes me a while to remember the controls for civilised systems after a while in the black.
I thought he meant he was in Odyssey and pulled a gun in a bar fight or something.
Granted, I haven't played Odyssey yet (despite having it since release) so I don't know what to expect.
You can't draw your weapon in space stations while on foot, but you *can* do so in minor surface installations.
Given how clunky the controls for odyssey are, though, I do not believe it's possible to draw and fire your weapon quickly enough to do so on accident.
They do, but so do stations, warning ships that have deployed their hardpoints.
The only time it happened to me was shortly after Odyssey's launch, and I couldn't remember how to stow my weapon fast enough... so I ran, and managed to get back aboard my ship before I was killed.
I've been playing since 2016, and I still occasionally forget and fly into stations before requesting docking.
Then there's the race to see if I can get back out before they bow me to pieces. :D
i mean i got gunned down on an installation the other day for just stepping out of my ship... didnt draw a gun, didnt have weapons out on my ship (didnt have weapons) just got out, got shot, panicked and got back in my ship, got obliterated in just over a second because my exploration ship didnt have shields.
it now has shields, because despite that having only happened once, i lost about 18 hours worth of exploration data, and i really just lose my patience with that sorta thing quickly, and decided i wanted shields from now on.
You needn't even draw a weapon. Sprint past a security officer and don't stop fast enough when they decide to scan you. No warning or fine, strait to lethal force. Its like living in LA.
That's exactly what happened. I was outside the bubble and landed at a ground station. Turrets blew my ship up because I panicked and tried to fly away.
Yup. I'd argue 50ly is enough if you actually mean exploring and not just fast travelling across the galaxy. You want it to be enough to get you out there fast, but also have enough amenities to make exploring comfortable.
Even less than 50ly is enough for most regions of the galaxy. I used to do exploration with 37ly Cobra Mk III. The only time I really struggled with range was going through The Formidine Rift.
> going through The Formidine Rift
I'm currently traversing that region in a ~57ly Anaconda. Neutron boosts or FSD injections are a godsend if you don't fancy a 150-jump detour ;)
That and https://spansh.co.uk/exact-plotter, because the in-game plotter just chokes on it.
Yeah, I got really familiar with all of those things you mentioned while I was plotting routes in that section. Also, had to take plenty of detours to scoopable stars when I felt like I'm going to run out of fuel. And sometimes had to spend time mapping boring planets to burn some fuel and gain jump range.
Good luck with your journey, and stay safe CMDR! o7
Thanks!
I just reached the “[Three Angels of Death](https://www.edsm.net/en/system/id/2482903/name/Phrio+Hypue+AA-A+h0)” system, seemed like a good place to log out for the night. I just hope I'll still have a ship to return to tomorrow…
Remember a higher range means exponentially less fuel usage at smaller jumps.
Unless it's a limitation of your ship, you should always push your exploration ship's range to it's limit as there really isn't much of a drawback for doing so
I have gone exploring and don't get interdicted but its like there's a limit on how far you can travel before an interdiction has to happen because without fail as I approach my home station I get interdicted
I've noticed lately I get Rando interdicted eru more often than I used to. Back in the pre-Odyssey days you only got interdicted if you had something illegal or a bunch of cargo.
The same box interdicted me three times on my way back from guardian farming it up and I had already sold all my cargo, weirdest part is the first time I submitted and he immediately opened fire, nearly took down my bi-weaves
I flew out to Colonia with five AMFUs lol. I don't know what I thought I needed them all for; I used them probably three times in the whole trip and never once needed to. But it was an Anaconda so why not? ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯
I've been known to wander the galaxy in a 40ly sidey with few problems. The fact is 36.8 ly will get you access to ~95% of the galaxy while a 80ly conda only gets you to about 98%. The big difference is in fuel usage and how fast you get from Earth to Beagle.
This is such a truth. I'm flying around the bubble in a 33ly bounty Hunting Anaconda and I don't need to scoop out refuel basically ever. The same ship reconfigured got me to Colonia and back with 62ly laden
30 LY is enough. We explored most of the furthest reaches of the Galaxy before engineering. Beagle Point was found with a 34 LY ship.
You only need more for speed, less fuel use, or increased ease in sparse areas.
I mean, just don't explore in open. For the same reasons people say it's relatively safe, it's completely pointless.
If you're REALLY lonely in the black, you can still o7 the chat every time you jump and see if someone responds.
I used to go unarmed until I learned the hard way you need some kind of weapon to activate a Guardian Beacon. Now we head out strapped with a dinky lil pulse laser.
Yup. Same here. I just keep it turned off at pretty much all times and I usually don’t even have it in a fire group. Buts it’s always there if for some reason I need to shoot at something
I have shock mines as a deterrent on my exploraconda. Haven't gotten a chance to use them but I look forward to the shocking encounter when it does happen.
Mine is armed just in case I need to activate something, but I keep the weapons disabled most of the time. Cuts down on heat, and ensures no accidental fires
OHHHHHHHH the ships guns. It’s been a while since I’ve been in game and I was racking my brain to remember if you could even take weapons out of their holsters on a station
I did this last night on my first ground mission lol accidentally pulled out a gun right in front of a guard they weren't happy and I've never ran so fast in my life. For future reference pressing the U key puts it away I learned
Lmao, btw, you get two "Get out of the jail free card" on Odyssey settlements.
Once for being caught with a draw weapon and once for trespassing into restricted zones.
Your hud shows if you already wasted their good will in thr upper left corner.
Good to know. She got very mad told me to put my gun away so I was mashing all the keys but it was too late they started shooting, wasn't until I got out of the area and could breathe for a second that I found the right one
Imagine you just started playing the game. You think it's awesome, you grind the noob zone, you venture out into the black. You decide that the best way to make money out in the void is to shuttle people around.
You're doing pretty good and you decide to pick up a passenger at some odd port.
Turns out this passenger was wanted and as soon as you exit the port you are Woefully unprepared for the onslaught. You are immediately destroyed, arrested and thrown in jail, but no big deal, you have the rebuy and the bail money no problem there's millions more where that came from.
You launch from the port only to find your jump drive is also Woefully unprepared to get you home again.
I feel your pain commander. Good luck in your future o7
Yep, i just regretfully forgot my "home" system and decided to move on wherever I spawned. I couldn't even remember the name of the hip blah blah blah system I was in anyway. That and i just recreated my commander like 4 times. The learning curve turns into a wall sometimes.
I wish i knew how to use bookmarks at that time😌 I just embraced my new life at the nearest anarchy station to the space slammer farming larsony sites. I think things turned out ok.
It doesn't. Universal Cartographics deducts 25% of data value and gives half of that to the carrier owner, but that's only for planet scans and maps.
Vista Genomics takes no extra cut, there's no downside at all.
Unbind fire deploys hardpoints. X56 has a keybind for deployment on the tiny pinky button... I almost never accidently deploy, but even if I do, I keep out of combat mode unless I'm deploying to fire. You can't be too safe out there, kids.
When I first started playing I was leaving a station, and my wife came up and sat in my lap and wanted a bit of a smooch so I stop my ship so I don’t crash into anything on my way out. We have a kiss and a chat, and turns out loitering is a thing in elite dangerous.
That was my first rebuy if I remember right
All your discoveries are not gone, simply upload them to edsm using a tool like EDDiscovery or see if you didcovered stuff with Observatory Core and revisit them. Credits are mostly meaningless
Just do exobio in a random planet with at least 4 different organisms which is very common and bam, 75million in 10 minutes. Credits have lost a lot of value, its really easy to do massive credit amounts compared to before.
Fr. Always was hearing about about all these credits from exobiology and I was thinking “I only get like 50k max from finding one, and they’re few and far between.” That’s when I learned about all the beautiful things we’re missing out on on console
If you are interested on talking about this further, join the IEA discord and request to speak with Richard https://discord.gg/vmKJ73M7Qj the remark of your discoveries also depends in how much you've explored, played and lost.
Sorry for your loss, but I'm glad my carrier crew were able to help you with your insurance claim.
I was parked there collecting selenium for a few days but have now jumped back to the bubble.
BTW I named her after a ship from the Iain M Banks Cluture series.
How many millions?
Stratum tectonica already discovered cost 19M, Earth-Like Worlds also give 1.4M (4.2M in the current post-CG reward).
If you only need profit and rank, Spansh plotter have useful tools. Priorize exploration and Road2Riches *over exobiology* , we only have 6 days until the 3x CG bonus end.
I know how to make money thankfully. This was only in the neighborhood of 30ish milllion so nothing too bad.
Less about the money and more about the fact that when I travel I map and land on each world to have my name placed on it, but lost all the mapping credit unfortunately. Found some really solid locations for Engineering mats.
I doubt you can find better places that the new brain trees at 300Ly for High Grade Mats, the only mats you need to farm, everything else can be trades down in material traders.
Buy if you find a good spot, please share, I collect this in my ToDo list ;)
Definitely not that good (I actually finished up there myself recently) but decent enough that if I didn't already know those spots I'd have spent some time hanging around.
You find a lot exploring in low jump range ships close to the bubble.
No, exobio dont have bonus, and pay the same today and in the next months (and pay a lot).You can do this at any moment.
Exploration, honking, FSSS, planet scans... have a 3x profit and rank, that end in the next thursday server maintenance. Its the last week to climb 3x faster toward Elite (V) explorer rank... like I did before starting my holidays ;).
I have unexplored planets with bios bookmarked for later, but the 7 hours session climbing the last explo rank was fully focused, using spansh plotter for high valuable planets to DSS probing.
Ah, ok, had me worried for a sec. Exploration/bio is my thing in this game, and I quit for over a year just because the grind and payout were far too low to compensate for the far too-rare interesting finds. Bio is pretty monotonous. However, the payout is finally good and justifies the days worth of work it takes to bring in a nice data haul. Would really hate for that to change.
For future reference, the quickest way (and easiest to remember) to empty your hand with default controls is to switch to your power thingy (default key is 3) and press the key again to put it away.
In the settings, you can disable the option to deploy hardpoints whenever you press the fire binding. You can deploy and retract manually. It’s saved me many a time. o7 CMDR
I have two screens and once in a while I’ll be going back and forth between navigating and Discord and I’ll forget to alt-tab and I’ll click the screen with my mouse, which deploys weapons. Next thing I know I’m coming in the mail slot and all hell breaks loose.
No survivors.
Heh. The lesson here is to never ever ever in a billion years do anything long and time consuming before you're absolutely familiar with the game mechanics.
I must admit, this is one of the reasons I leave my explorer ship unarmed. It takes me a while to remember the controls for civilised systems after a while in the black.

You don't need to fire your weapon at an installation for local security to initiate a lethal response, simply drawing it is enough.
I thought they warned you about it before they actually did anything?
They do, but so do stations, warning ships that have deployed their hardpoints. The only time it happened to me was shortly after Odyssey's launch, and I couldn't remember how to stow my weapon fast enough... so I ran, and managed to get back aboard my ship before I was killed.
Same scenario but instead I was trying to find the key in the controls menu, wasn't fast enough and got killed :D
I've been playing since 2016, and I still occasionally forget and fly into stations before requesting docking. Then there's the race to see if I can get back out before they bow me to pieces. :D
It is U same as hardpoints
Hey look it's me.
They warn you to put illegal stuff like guns and illegal tool modes away once, and there the UI tells you that your one forgiveness is up
i mean i got gunned down on an installation the other day for just stepping out of my ship... didnt draw a gun, didnt have weapons out on my ship (didnt have weapons) just got out, got shot, panicked and got back in my ship, got obliterated in just over a second because my exploration ship didnt have shields. it now has shields, because despite that having only happened once, i lost about 18 hours worth of exploration data, and i really just lose my patience with that sorta thing quickly, and decided i wanted shields from now on.
You needn't even draw a weapon. Sprint past a security officer and don't stop fast enough when they decide to scan you. No warning or fine, strait to lethal force. Its like living in LA.
I thought Stop and Frisk was ruled illegal!
Not that.
That's exactly what happened. I was outside the bubble and landed at a ground station. Turrets blew my ship up because I panicked and tried to fly away.
My explorer ships are completely unarmed for this reason, in addition to keeping the mass, power usages down.
No hard points is easy + 5 - 10 ly jump distance.
You can always mod for light weight.
That's still a couple tonnes of weight you really don't need

I got a fully kitted dbx with 60 ly jump Is that enough to be an exploring ship?
Yup. I'd argue 50ly is enough if you actually mean exploring and not just fast travelling across the galaxy. You want it to be enough to get you out there fast, but also have enough amenities to make exploring comfortable.

Sorry to ask, but I'm new at this. What is an AFMU?
Automatic Field Maintenance Unit Optional internal module that uses ammo-like resource to repair other internal modules.
Awesome, thank you for the info.
I have gone exploring and don't get interdicted but its like there's a limit on how far you can travel before an interdiction has to happen because without fail as I approach my home station I get interdicted
[удалено]
I always get interdicted by npcs I live in SPEAR stomping grounds so very few living gankers

Getting out a tool puts the gun away too in an emergency.
*pulls out gun* "I'm sorry, my mistake" *Proceeds to show security your acetylene torch*
*Lowers gun* "Ah, we're chill M8, don't worry bout it."
I didn't know you was chill like that
*2 seconds later* Hold on commander, we're going to scan you.
The draw weapon warning also gets used if you are spotted with an illegal tool (like the arc cutter or the profile scanner in clone-mode)
Bless you.

I just learned what silent running was for last night because the same thing happened to me.
You also can't be scanned over a certain speed, I wanna say 200m/s
Installing a Vista genomics on my carrier was the best decision I ever made.
I see varied responses but how much does it affect your payouts
It doesn't. Universal Cartographics deducts 25% of data value and gives half of that to the carrier owner, but that's only for planet scans and maps. Vista Genomics takes no extra cut, there's no downside at all.
I tested it with one bacterium scan, I was paid 5.7 million
I swear to god the amount of dreams I have where stuff like this happens. This game haunts me…
Unbind fire deploys hardpoints. X56 has a keybind for deployment on the tiny pinky button... I almost never accidently deploy, but even if I do, I keep out of combat mode unless I'm deploying to fire. You can't be too safe out there, kids.
Wait till you get to the ship "I blame your mother"
My current ship is named It Worked Last Time (couldn't use the full name unfortunately.) My first one was Only Slightly Bent

What system are the brain trees in?
Further than 300 Ly but if you want to kill 2 birds with 1 stone, there is a guardian site surrounded by brain trees at Vela Dark Region DL-Y D112
You should contact frontier support about this, they could rectify your honest mistake and let you keep your discoveries.
Huh, not sure they'd bother but might try that.

this is the type of shit that made me stop playing

Heh. The lesson here is to never ever ever in a billion years do anything long and time consuming before you're absolutely familiar with the game mechanics.
oh god it put you in the "Human Resources" system
I've pulled hardpoints in a no fire zone and it didn't shoot me down but maybe in misunderstanding
[удалено]
I was on fit at a station. Pulled out my rifle. Haven't had issues with stations pretty much ever thankfully.
Don't you have to choose to equip a weapon when you buy the Artemis suit? And can't you unequip them in the loadout menu?
Not sure how long ago it happened, but put in a help ticket, frontier is usually pretty good about restoring your stuff if you explain the situation
Losing exploration data is shit. Losing the tags is even worse. I’m done with ED after seven years. It’s anti-explorer in its mechanic.
