    Railen Q&A, Hull B Change

    Interesting, learned something new there. Anyhow, I kinda figure that anything with less than 1k SCU would be more of a in-system or neighboring system trader, don't see how taking 300 SCUs on an hour long perilous journey could possibly be profitable.

    Guys, if you don't hear from me, it's because I've melted.

    Yeah, I'm moving out next year or so. Heating elements are so much cheaper than cooling elements, at least around here. I can get like 10-20€ space heater and that's more than enough to get a room or two toasty when need be, but proper ACs cost hundreds. Even the cheapest 'air cooler' (not...

    Guys, if you don't hear from me, it's because I've melted.

    Bit of a progress update: Having 1.5l bottle filled with frozen water reduced relative humidity from 49% to 44%, so that seems pretty significant. Had to put it in a bucket, it's condensing a lot of water. In another room, a 1.5L bottle of ice reduced relative humidity from 57% to 49%. Though...

    Guys, if you don't hear from me, it's because I've melted.

    Umm, what do you mean by 'dark side'? They're white, both sides. I don't see any difference in the shade of white either on the different sides. On either set (got blackout curtains for two rooms).

    Guys, if you don't hear from me, it's because I've melted.

    There isn't really a great aftermarket for AC units here, this sort of heat doesn't come even every year, and even when it does it's just a week or two. (Well, I suppose with global warming it's been happening more often lately, but still not every year). Almost nobody I know owns an AC unit...

    Guys, if you don't hear from me, it's because I've melted.

    Thank you @vahadar @Vavrik @Cugino83 @Lorddarthvik @maynard @FlyCasual @Aramsolari for your input. The wet towel idea seems good, I'll try that, I'll try to setup a fan as well. (Well, let's hope the humidity won't spike). Hmm, having ice in some sort of sealed container works as a...

    Guys, if you don't hear from me, it's because I've melted.

    It's 35 degrees Celsius outside. It's 30 degrees Celsius inside. Night it "drops" to 27 degrees outside and if I'm lucky it'll drop to 27 degrees inside. I don't have AC, this'll be just 1-3 weeks a year and I'm moving out sometime next year so getting an AC for a couple weeks seems a bit...

    let's talk about desks

    This is just my opinion, but BOY DO I FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT IT! Get an electric desk. Even if you're not the kind of person who constantly switches between standing and sitting, being able to easily adjust your table to the perfect height for you improves your gaming experience immensely. Sure...

    New system to be announced at the end of the year?

    I certainly wouldn't rule it out, but I can also definitely see them starting with just one system to have us test out the mechanisms and see how players interact with a 'popular' jump point. Like see what sort of bottleneck it'll be, does it result in pirate ambushes etc.

    Planetary pressure on Gas Giants!

    Sure, it's kinda cheap to just have a floating rectangle after another and call that a staircase, but that's really not just sci-fi fantasy. It could be just a really advanced quantum locking method (for actually levitating stairs) or it could be the struts are just optically imperceptible...

    New system to be announced at the end of the year?

    Well, you only need to have the assets done to make a teaser and announce it. I didn't mean that we'd necessarily go from having just Stanton to flying around Pyro, Nyx and the third one.

    3.14 Leaked images and info. Orison landing zone, clones, refueling and more.

    Those red splodges look more like islands than anything gaseous. That landing zone looks real interesting. I was kind of wondering how would they make Orison lag as much as the other capital cities, but I see the answer now. Hmmm. Wasn't expecting anything related to perma death in this patch...

    BMM Price increase?

    Wait, $20 CCU from Aquila to BMM? Was that like a deal at some point or how'd that happen?

    CIG taking questions for Railen QnA

    I still want to see a weapons platform module for Endeavor though. Y'know like, just 1x1 modules with two twin S4 turrets, 1x1 modules with one S8 crewed cannon mount, 2x2 module with a S25 artillery piece... Maybe bit exaggerated... But like, a very big gun with slow fire rate but extreme range...

    Singe-1

    It is my understanding that singe-1 got included as part of the 3.5 patch. Think they've done several balance passes for the guns that are actually in use, but think Singe-1 is just forgotten in the corner with some weird older values. AFAIK it is currently unobtainable.

    Don't touch your mouse. Then just W, use A / D to strafe past obstacles instead of turning your screen.

    entry level mining?

    Interestingly enough, I did some math here: Take daymar, it has ingame radius of 295km, which conveniently gives us 1.09mil sqkm surface area. If you are landed on the planet mining with 10k EM rating and some guy with a ship with s3 radars flies to the planet and stops at 3km height, (this...

    entry level mining?

    With prospector, as long as you swap to Eclipse stealth powerplant, your EM drops from 30k to 10k while mining & maneuvering. I'd say that's pretty stealthy as well, considering you'll be on some random spot right at the surface of the planet or at like a million meter wide asteroid belt.

    BMM Price increase?

    Yeah, that'd make sense, to an extent. Kraken having two different versions of it, the privateer and the... Kraken. Where the privateer replaces cargo hold 1 and cargo hold 2 with a market. And both of those are carriers to begin with, not cargo haulers. Meanwhile BMM has always been classed as...

    BMM Hype!

    @TomcatTrader Everything that Talonsbane said. Sage advice. Commit it to memory, rent and crash an Aurora to commemorate. To add, during IAE some of those warbond CCUs MAY come with an insurance upgrade as well. So keep an eye out for those. That's how I upgraded my game package ship to LTI.
