So I'm getting major torque imbalance on a prospector on microtech, no damage to the ship, get it in both hover and flight mode.
ocean trench
Any cool mining locations where i can use the prospector with default laser? (Small rocks)
pliant matrix
anywhere is fine. I usually go to crusader and it's moon since PO is closer and easy to access
ocean trench
Okay, i hope i gotta buy a new laser then.
ocean trench
are gems worth collecting?
pliant matrix
honestly if you've a fighter capable of doing bounties go to crusader and farm bounties. you'll make 100k in around an hour (activate call at arms for bonuses)
it can be a plus ofc. hand mining is more profitable than shit rock imo
ocean trench
oh k
pliant matrix
advantage with hand mining now is you can scan with any ships even small and faster ones than prospector. and you doesn't have to be picky on what to gather.
just be prepared with adapted suit for atmosphere conditions

@fleet temple Unfortunately there's no way to pull data straight from the live servers at the moment 😦 The moment there is, I'll be sure to include it!
Even if people reported prices, they would stay accurate for less than an hour.
@lethal cedar Sorry to hear that! I'm open to any feedback though, so feel free to let me know what you think could use some work. As for help/tutorials, there's these explanations (https://sc-trade.tools/home#faq) and this video (https://youtu.be/dqVhs1cGhmo).
@fathom silo I'm always happy to give some advice!
last flame
Ola, please someone can tell me if hand mining is bugged or not?
Hand mining isn’t bugged. It’s likely you’re attempting to mine something too large for your tool. The size of hand mineable nodes are about 0.11 mass or so. If you see a node with mass 0.75 or higher, that requires the ROC. And if mass is in the thousands, that requires a ship.
crimson mantle
You can see the mass is above 0.1 in the third number
verbal wagon
yes, I understand, what is ROC exactly?
crimson mantle
verbal wagon
Thanks ! But I never found a little rock to exploit with my multitool, where can I find this kind of stuff?
crimson mantle
Mostly in closed mines/caves
verbal wagon
I newer saw mines or caves too 😦
crimson mantle
Closed mines appear on the planet map. Caves can be found through "missing clients" P.I. quests.
Technically there are hand-minables on the surface as well, but you have to fly very close to them for them to show up on the radar.
verbal wagon
Well thanks for informations

do i need to make any upgrades to the ROC for it to be effective? (a la the helix on a mining ship)
crimson mantle
As the dev of SC Trade Tools I can say it's up-to-date (from the game's files of 3.11.1).
*Live server data may vary with player activity
pliant matrix
I'd avoid famous cargo road like arial lorville. availability of laranite is already at minimum
couldn't even fill an MSR just half an hour ago
crimson mantle
Usually titanium traders fill on Laranite first, hence it's always empty.
pliant matrix
ik that's what i tried xD
problem is laranite is very very lucrative even in low quantity
crimson mantle
Indeed, after the vices, it's the best profit per unit
pliant matrix
39scu of laranite available at bezdek now xD
crimson mantle
If you trade rare stuff, you can always use the "Alternative commodities" button: https://i.imgur.com/vPay6FM.png
This way you know what sells at your destination.
pliant matrix
yeah well titanium is almost always second better. just it doesn't make a lot of profit
with a39scu of laranite and 76scu titanium I made 20k profit
Bezdek-Lorville
is there still the vice lab near lorville on the coast? I can't find it on sc tool?
crimson mantle
pliant matrix
yup thx. it doesn't appear if I put vice commodities only
actually neon and e'tam doesn't have road
nvm there are but not for nomad. too big probably
crimson mantle
Make sure you uncheck "Avoid hidden locations" in locations
pliant matrix
or my 500k invest cap wasn't enough
crimson mantle
Also most vice trades only show up with "Allow wait times" enabled
pliant matrix
I'd all that. just if you make a too big amount nothing appear
or too low idk
for example if I put 100 000 uec nothing appear but if I put 80 000 there is roads
crimson mantle
It's easier if you send the long link you get from the result page
But the reason is because you haven't checked "Allow wait times"
Vice buyers only take very small amounts 🙂

With big bulk trading like that, going for high refresh rate commodities (https://i.imgur.com/3XNgXCy.png) or rare stuff with a plan B (https://i.imgur.com/OGiEvFW.png) is usually how it goes.
I usually only trade in commodities with >25-33% of my cargo capacity in refresh rate, personally. Of course, you can adjust with your risk level.

If your are cargo trading, that video that was posted higher up is very informative.
Do not Cargo trade if you are looking for massive gains; You will make much, but you have to be smart. Find a product that not many people are trading. You'll be directly competing for other players, so go a little bit off the beaten path; Like Cellin to Lorville will get you approximately a 18-21% profit for some goods there.
I have a very, VERY, particular resource I trade, which isn't traded often, so every run I can max my capacity between the two points and make max profits. Best of luck space truckers.

What's best spot for prospector mining
crisp prism
Can the ROC mine FPS rocks?
azure prawn
No @crisp prism ROC can mine rocks between the prospector and hand mining
imagine it like trying to fit 1L of water into a 250ml cup
crisp prism
So ROC overcompensates for hand mining, but can't make it to S1 prospecting?
azure prawn
Yea, if i remember correctly ROC is the passage between hand mining and ship mining
crisp prism
Where are some ROC mining locations?
pliant matrix
every moons
crisp prism
Can't seem to find any on surfaces and the Daymar cave is too shallow to enter
pliant matrix
best is to put the roc into a ship like cutlass and scan around for mining ore
crisp prism
I tried that for a good while, but I only found 5-7 t rocks
pliant matrix
you wont find as much as with a prospector for sure. filling a roc can take an hour sometimes more if unlucky. but it's a 200k 💰

Every scanner can tell you rock type and composition. When you find a rock, hold left click when you’re close (about 500m or less) and it will do a scan to tell you what it is and what it has.

Is there a decent and cheap upgrade for cutlass black? mostly for cargo running
connie or freelancer?
steel monolith
right but I do want some sort of firepower while chilling solo xd
MAX is not really that right
green sundial
hmm
well past the cutlass its really a choice you have to make. do you want to haul more or kick more ass?
Corsair may be better for you then
steel monolith
I have a sabre to kick ass I guess
green sundial
it has guns guns guns and alot of cargo
steel monolith
corsair has a lot of cargo? O.o
steel monolith
interesting
green sundial
but it really needs a crew in irder to use all the guns
steel monolith
I mean it has amazing pilot guns it seems
green sundial
it does
green sundial
I don't know you'd have to look at the brochure
steel monolith
green sundial
but it may be your best bet for a compromise to firepower and cargo
in general though after the cutlass its a choice of cargo or pewpew with varying degrees one way or the other
could do an MSR, don't need to fight when you can zoom zoom
steel monolith
msr fast you mean?
green sundial
it is
can also carry data later when that gets in the game
you can rent one ingame now at a rental terminal iirc
go check it out

yeah I've talked with someone about MSR but seems like a pretty annoying ship
steel monolith
can imagine
steel monolith
yeah seems like that
last flame
Note: The Freelancer MAX will do 120 SCU of Cargo, and still mounts the same amount of firepower of any other Freelancer: 4x S3 Gimbals on the waist, with a turret on the back
steel monolith
pilot guns? xd
last flame
That's more than the Connie, MSR, and very likely the Corsair, in a Freelancer-sized package
Yes, those 4x S3s are pilot guns
steel monolith
how is that more than corsair?
last flame
Sorry, I wasn't clear. The cargo capacity is more than the Corsair
last flame
ship costs about 2.1mil aUEC in-game, as well.
pliant matrix
isn't it slower than basic freelancer tho?
steel monolith
probably
pliant matrix
which is already a small brick
last flame
Very probably. But if the intent is "more cargo with some guns to defend myself", the MAX will get it done
steel monolith
yeah that is kinda of the point.. just slowly want to get myself set up to make money xd
mostly with a combat ship and a medium cargo hauler I guess
pliant matrix
money is about mining today. cargo is too unstable. you'll earn 300k by betting 1.5mil two or three times and then lose 1.5mil. back at the start if you didn't lose
combat and bounties are decent but takes way more time than mining
last flame
I fully suspect he's talking closer to release, Theadriel.
steel monolith
yeah not really for today xd
pliant matrix
so yeah. once the game is stabilized cargo will be interesting
sorry I didn't got that part xD
steel monolith
I basically meant after it get's fully persistent (and when there's an actual reason to make money)
last flame
honestly, if that's your goal, MAX is probably a good way to go. Fairly cost effective, just the right size for a solo pilot without missing out on too much functionality, and gives you plenty of paths to upgrade in the future when you start hauling cargo
steel monolith
mining also seems interesting but idk how viable that is.. and I think it's not too bad to make money with cargo/combat and then purchase a prospector.. they are quite cheap ingame right
pliant matrix
mining also seems interesting but idk how viable that is.. and I think it's not ...
actually mining is maybe the most viable solution to make money. A roc is 170k and is a better income than prospector who cost idk something like 3mil
In the future there wont be mining without cargo so both should be viable
steel monolith
i can bring a roc in MAX? xd
pliant matrix
yeah but it's not the best. it's very tight and glitchy
last flame
The MAX is actually one of those best suited for carrying a ROC just because of how wide the bay is
the regular Freelancer is a very tight squeeze, by comparison
and the ROC is dirt cheap in-game; 172k
steel monolith
yeah I mean that does sound perfect then
really seems like upgrading cutlass to MAX almost has no downsides besides a little maneuverability
last flame
In your specific use cases, I'd agree
if you were planning on using your MAX for... more nefarious purposes, I'd probably suggest sticking with the Cutty, but
steel monolith
like what exactly?
last flame
since the Cutty is more offensively-minded, it's probably going to be a better hunter/pirate than a Freelancer MAX. That maneuverability and extra pair of S3 guns will be important on imposing your will on other people, and the side doors make getting in and out easy in zero-G. But a lot of that gameplay isn't in, yet.
steel monolith
fair enough.. but I also have a Sabre for combat and might upgrade that sometime to warden or something else for hunting/pirate purposes
or even corsair
I don't need 1 ship to do everything I guess
last flame
Corsair seems like it will be interesting in the future. You know a Drake Explorer isn't built just for exploring stars
steel monolith
yes I'm aware and very interested xd
sabre is a good starting point to upgrade to something like that and it has lti aswell
So i'd be fine with losing some "combat" potential going to MAX
I feel like MAX is mostly gonna be used for chill hauling and if a friend or two play it seems like a more fun ship aswell
thorny copper
I love my MAX
its not too terrible in pve combat either tbh
you'll take a few hits, but its such a tank you rarely get hit thru the shields anyway

If you reclaimed the ship through insurance it's gone. Otherwise it should be there. Go check at the trading terminal. Boxes don't always visually show in the ship.

I cant sell it
crimson mantle
Or you can try to go sell it elsewhere, like in the big cities
dusky shoal
it says server error
crimson mantle
Yeah you have to quit the terminal and come back every once in a while.
green sundial
that 2 SCU/min is a limit shared between ALL active servers
crimson mantle
Might take some time at Tressler as they don't drink that much booze 😄
green sundial
so you're competing to sell your goods against everyone else

If you have another ship you can do some missions and come back later, there's no problem.

dusky shoal
Well
crimson mantle
Yeah, always keep an eye on that pesky "refresh rate" next time. https://i.imgur.com/3XNgXCy.png
I recommend putting in something like >25-33% of your cargo capacity.

No problem: stored ships are saved

You only lose money if the last place you landed was an outpost that cannot spawn your ship back.
Do not claim your ship through insurance: that will empty it.

If you insurance claim a ship, the previous ship is gone and you get a new one: no more cargo.

just a simple cute question
how much does it take to have 1 million UEC assuming i have a caterpillar or the biggest solo minning ship please ?

it's gonna take ages to build some money with cargo though

you fly in a ship, tab to use scanner. You find gems, you land and roll car out.
Press M to extend mining arm
mouse scroll to regulate power. Get it to stay in green zone. Red - boom.
Right mouse click to switch modes. Left click to vacuum.
if you will carry it in cutlass, doubletap M when powering up car.
Always power down AND close door before liftoff.

There's that. But as long as you're not flying like an idiot, you're more likely to lose your cargo to some obnoxious glitch rather than a mistake on your part. And unfortunately, there's not much you can do about that
fallen blaze
i have on occasion been extremely lucky and had my ship and cargo intact after a 30k

it's worth checking the admin panel and seeing if you got lucky before claiming your ship

yeah it happened to me once. got 30k while entering hurston hangar
I went to trade terminal and sold it all
fallen blaze
one day, far from now, the game will be bug free (enough) and have a dynamic economy (enough) and stop resetting progress to be worth investing serious time into
because you'll be way more likely to get a valuable return for your time, unlike right now where you can play for a whole day but lose everything to bugs
pliant matrix
you can play a whole day without losing anything. just don't trade
fallen blaze
my experiences with the roc say otherwise, that buggy is cursed

made two runs last night. except I barely got hadanite (shame luck then) everything went right.
sure you've to manage server lags for energy but well it's playable

what do you mean for server lags?
pliant matrix
when scrolling your laser power the reaction on the rock energy lvl is somehow always laggy. sometimes you'll see your rock explode suddenly too
fallen blaze
yeah that's happened a lot
my main problem is flipping, i haven't managed to successfully right it yet
pliant matrix
good point is it's not as punishing with roc than with prospector where it can literally blow up your ship too
haaa yeah I got that too a lot at first
well drive slow and land your ship so the door touch the ground well
also don't mine on too edgy cliffs

If you request landing, your ship is saved at that position.
No need to land per-say, just request it.
So you can "checkpoint" your run by requesting landing at an orbital station on the way.
The only problem really is when your "saved" location is an outpost that cannot spawn your ship.
fallen blaze
also don't mine on too edgy cliffs
i learned the the hard way yesterday
pliant matrix
I meant when carrying your roc on a planet. it's buggy sometimes when you try to climb the ramp and there is a gap between the ramp and the floor
that's why I now avoid aberdeen. it's full of cliffs and rocks making landing a pain
fallen blaze
yeah and i have an msr and she's a big girl
pliant matrix
I'm thinking about renting a cutlass. lighter and easier to land than msr. it's a shame since I took msr to make roc run easier xD
fallen blaze
im all about that smuggler life but after playing for 4 years i realised that mining is the only way to make decent money in the current game
ive like never had over 200k aUEC at any point in the alpha
because the payouts for missions are crap and you can only make good money trading once you have lots of capital
woeful moss
how can I reach the aaron halo best?
pliant matrix
you can make 200k by farming bounties in like an hour and half. Less depending of your ship and if you doesn't have to repair or resupply
pliant matrix
🤔 I'm doing cs4 and it's 5-6k each (not counting call at arms bonuses)
dunno how to get more. if there are more
pliant matrix
It's a nice starter for making money without risk. Once you get enough you'll be able to do cargo without losing it all and starting over. I advice getting a million before starting light cargo. 2-3mil before going cat
fallen blaze
and here i was doing full MSR runs with like 90% of my funds at stake 
putting all 80k on the line for a 14k return
willow girder
What annoys me the most right now is that consumables mostly don't work in my mole turret.
pliant matrix
putting all 80k on the line for a 14k return
xD good luck
steel monolith
prospector worth getting or just get roc ingame?
last flame
Prospector's nice because it can be pretty consistent mining that isn't reliant on another vehicle. Having both honestly isn't a bad idea
steel monolith
kind of just thinking to melt my sabre and get prospector + cutty black and just earn other ships ingame I guess
pliant matrix
If you've another fighter it's a nice plan
Or if you doesn't do fight
There is an arrow or hornet loan with prospector if I remember right
steel monolith
for SC you mean?
I mean later I can just earn money for fighters.. I feel like it's just smarter to get money making sorted instead of "fun" ships
pliant matrix
Yeah well gladius or arrow are around the million so with a prospector you'll do it quite fast
And roc is 172k and is more profitable when everything goes right
steel monolith
still weird to me that the little go cart can make more than a prospector
pliant matrix
Yeah. Prospector mineable goods should get a rise. How can a full roc do two or three times a prospector?
steel monolith
that kind of makes prospector useless it seems
pliant matrix
It does
I melt my prospector actually
I'm making as much with dolivine with roc and faster
pallid temple
Yeah don't mine Dolivine
pliant matrix
And dolivine isn't hard to find
pallid temple
You'll make it faster with Hadanite
pliant matrix
Yes but on last run I mostly found doli so after a while I took it instead of keep searching
Better than nothing kinda
quasi forge
Where were you mining?
quasi forge
Always had good results on Arial
pliant matrix
Too cliffy and field is a pain to land properly
quasi forge
I stick within a few 10s of kilometers of Bezdek
pliant matrix
Yeah I made a full Arial run in less than an hour once on arial
Full hadanite I mean
quasi forge
I don't know if it's real, but feels like there's more stuff to be found near the mining stations
I've dropped in other places far from the outposts and found nothing for miles and miles
quasi forge
I'm talking relatively near
Like at least a couple minutes flying time at full speed
quasi forge
I keep Bezdek locked as a reference point
Just so I don't start backtracking by mistake
pliant matrix
Yeah same so I can retrieve roc and go back selling there
Too bad I can't refuel msr there
quasi forge
Why not?
pliant matrix
It never worked. Maybe the size not being accepted
quasi forge
There's a dumb bug that it won't let you refuel anywhere if you have a roc inside
pliant matrix
Maybe because landing request failed because of the size
quasi forge
I don't think the landing services apply to any ship at these small outposts
pliant matrix
I'm thinking about renting a curry for Roc mining
quasi forge
PB is only for land vehicles I think
pliant matrix
Seems way easier
Cutty*
Msr is great but too big to land anywhere. I'm losing lot of time finding a good landing spot so roc can climb back in
Does cutty need any trick to put roc inside? Or is it going in smooth?
pliant matrix
Not like freelancer where you need to push for it to enter?
steel monolith
lol no
pliant matrix
(just realized that convo could work in a very different context 🤣)
steel monolith
for sure
pliant matrix
Anyway will try that next time. Cutty sure would make me earn time and won't require me to refuel every 45 min
Shame that nomad isn't working well for now
I took two ships for roc carrying that doesn't work well atm
pliant matrix
Yeah but too expansive
pliant matrix
Yeah it fit pretty great. Just need to be careful to have all wheels on ramp
steel monolith
yeah ramp is a bit narrow at the end
bit it fits fine
you can bring 2 I think
xD
pliant matrix
If you doesn't close the door maybe
I heard some people made three roc enter an msr
steel monolith
yikes

Anyone with a Mole? I wanna do some mining

peak grove
Hello I have a question, if I quit game but my ship have cargo, will I lost the Cargo ? I need to stock my ship in a station ?
pliant matrix
I'd say most likely yes
you'll lose it
even if stocked.
also if you have time to stock it then just go to the closest location possible and sell it
peak grove
I can’t sell it that the problem, trading consol broken haha
pliant matrix
aww. never had a console being broken actually. what does it do?
peak grove
Yep, in outpost impossible to see my ship in the trading console
pliant matrix
🤔 I see. maybe a sign server will crash. is your ship landed on a pad or close enough to the station?
sand sail
Is it area 45?
peak grove
No, moon of Hurston, Arial
fallen blaze
aaaand this is why i never make any money in SC
peak grove
Hooo so sorry for your mining
last flame
is the elevator of nomad going to get an fix at some point? I mean all elevator ...
Yes. It's an issue with every elevator right now that extends outside of the ship's static physics grid. It affects a huge number of ships in varying different ways, so expect it to get a fix at some point
pliant matrix
it actually sucks since a year or more from what I heard. with connies and mustang mostly
last flame
It's been a while, yes. But one of the ships they've been actively working on involves working on dynamic physics grids, so it shouldn't be much longer, hopefully
pliant matrix
I hope too. I took nomad for carrying roc but it's bugging too much. I wasted two run about it
I'm considering upgrading it to cutlass but I don't like it xD
steel monolith
what's wrong with cutlass
pliant matrix
I don't like it's design. too rustic I guess xD
steel monolith
freelancer xd
pliant matrix
even worse xD
steel monolith
connie?
pliant matrix
I like ^^
steel monolith
get aquila
pliant matrix
too expansive and would prefer phoenix actually. just for luxury xD
steel monolith
rather have taurus lol
pliant matrix
lool I'd like to know what it'll be. And connies rework too
steel monolith
if taurus gets 150+ scu it's a good deal
they just seem way too sluggish to fly
even a freelancer runs circles around it
pliant matrix
connies are fine but barely made to defend themselves with turrets or shoot from 4km. out of that they're useless in battle
steel monolith
did you melt the MSR yet
pliant matrix
🤔 not planning on melting it
steel monolith
how come
pliant matrix
why would I?
sand sail
I'm lookin' for folks who are hauling cargo; who either don't want to do the flying themselves or have a spare ship that they need someone to fly. Any takers?
steel monolith
lol
pliant matrix
MSR except hydrogen issue is working fine. just not perfect to mining with roc but so far I'm good with it xD
steel monolith
don't really see any other reason to get MSR atm
pliant matrix
I've made bounties with it with a friend. works fine too with the turret. and it's a pretty ship ^^
steel monolith
I've have bought it if it had 4 s3 pilot guns
2 s3 is a bit of a joke
I'd almost ccu to wb msr for ccu value
sabre (170$) > msr (260$) is only 50$
🤔
pliant matrix
I've nothing in sight to replace it honestly. Maybe vanguard but I can buy one ingame soon
steel monolith
idk if I want to do it xD it's a great deal I guess
if it gets fixed it seems like a good replacement as multi role ship from cutty black
what do you think
pliant matrix
totally. I mean except pilot firepower it does everything better than cutlass
steel monolith
yeah that's definitely a concern though
I basically still have a nomad ccu after i'd get MSR, so I could get some cheap fighter for bounty/pve
Thing that really interests me is that I could use msr as a bit of an explorer since it should be able to traverse long distances without refueling? 🤔
pliant matrix
should be yeah but it's more of a fast cargo kinda. It's like take the data and deliver is asap other way of the galaxy
steel monolith
data gameplay seems interesting aswell tbh
@pliant matrix would it be better to upgrade sabre to like a corsair > msr.. or melt sabre and start with nomad first xd
think melting is better
tender sky
I'm planning on getting the Cutlass, but figured I'd buy the Nomad game package first then upgrade for LTI
But then you don't get a hangar that cna fit the Cutlass it appears?
steel monolith
ofc you do
tender sky
You do? So the Nomad comes with the Self land
But if I CCU that to Cutlass, then I wouldn't get the industrial hangar from the cutlass game package right?
Pretty new so just trying to figure out best option
steel monolith
no clue how the hangars work with ccus
tender sky
Cool thx anyhow, I guess ill have to see what happens haha
steel monolith
the hangars aren't that important anyway I guess xD
tender sky
Yeah I don't know much about them, I guess no one really spends much time in them lol
Might as well be out in the game
Although supposedly eventually you can spawn from them in game
tender sky
Something look off?

Can the ROC fit in a Constellation?
woeful moss
Yes
boreal raven
yes
pliant matrix
Sorry @steel monolith went to sleep. It was 4am and was dead. Congrats on msr
pliant matrix
Can the ROC fit in a Constellation?
Yes but it's the same problem than with nomad (in worst). Your roc might glitch out of elevator sometimes
sand sail
Uh oh
pliant matrix
Also tbh you'll lose lot of time moving from point to point and finding a decent spot to land
woeful moss
Cutty way better for roc(king) in the verse
mental wing
Hello! What are the recommended commodities to running trade with on my MSR?
fair fog
Constellation Phoenix + Roc = no go. Roof of cargo bay is lower and glitched arm will stick into the ceiling causing ROC to bump all around until fixed. Since arm glitches often, it is possible to lose ROC during transport between spots or en route to selling gems.
Andromeda is fine, if slow in atmo. Aquila is best out of all constelations.
pliant matrix
But same elevator issues for all tho. Your roc might fall while you raise it
fair fog
if you look at ROC while it's raised and see all 4 wheels, it glitches less
I usually place ROC in bottom right quadrant of platform if you look at ship from above. Character stands in top left quadrant of platform.
Arm almost touches right wall, but should just be a bit not touching.

Could you make good profit with ROC ?? It's better then mining with Prospector for example ?

LoL 172k so cheep 🤣
fallow wagon
buying one with credits is my #1 goal right now, but I keep losing cargo to server jank and haven't even quite had 100k at once yet

just do an hour or two of bounty mission and you'll get your 172k easy

Is a hauling with cat still a think ?

what fighter or assimilate ship do you've?
atomic forum
Well I have made like 2 millions with my cat in 3.9 patch and a still got them 😅
Cool
pliant matrix
I see. well either you find someone to get into a turret in MSR and it'll be easy to farm bounties or go with 125a. it's decent for some missions. you'll struggle on some of them but I think it's doingable and still better income than losing your cargo
atomic forum
And now iam just haul some scrap time to time for 28k profit and iam fine 🤣
pliant matrix
lol I'd not have enough of 2mil. it'd barely pay me a sentinel

Titanium and Laranite are still to go commodities right ?

That your ship want be stored right ?

even if stored you can still sell your stuff
it's not a bug I think it's just a lot of people come and go at lorville so spot are needed
especially large spot

I cannot go to Lorville
my rendering gets extremely broken if I visit Lorville, so I cannot ever go there.
I've also found that SC trading tools site to be way, way, way off in values

pliant matrix
@crimson mantle will explain better than me
fair fog
Valk?
thorny copper
I'd rather be broke than do ROC mining, I value my sanity too much
pliant matrix
I confirm cutlass is best for solo mining. and roc sucks for getting on it's back way too often. Just lost 34% hadanite run
mortal furnace
you can mine with cutlass?
crimson mantle
@fallow wagon The website is updated automatically when a patch hits, but from the static game's files. The live servers have a dynamic economy that make the prices fluctuate with supply and demand. This means that the website is always optimistic compared to the live servers. See https://sc-trade.tools/home#faq for more details.
By and large though, the prices should still be in the same ballpark. The commodities with a high "refresh rate" will be more accurate than the ones produces in small quantities.
paper forge
I take valk because of 3 reasons.
- its agile and with vtol handle pretty nice around planet - its dropship.after all.
- it carry 2 rocs that means i can mine for longer.
- its fuel efficient, i can mine straight 5hours without refueling
in that way i never lost any load because of random ramp glitchyness or lack of space, i can mine around 400k worth of hadanite within 1,5hour before i sell stuff and most importantly i dont give a damn F about 30k's because i wont loose any materials even if it occurs.
snow maple
why is that?
pliant matrix
Yeah last part intrigued me
pliant matrix
what about an connie andromeda?
Connie the elevator is often buggy which mean you might lose your roc either while getting in or rarest on flying.
Freelancer is tighter. It works but glitchy af
Cutlass is a bit larger and it helps quite a lot
I'm definitely upgrading nomad to cutlass later today. I don't like its design but it's really useful
paper forge
why is that?
If you get 30k on planet, your vehicles get stored there. With ship its a problem because you need to claim it on spacesport. But ROC gets stored at planetary outpost. After 30k you come back to nearest outpost on same planet and just retrieve ship with all inventori inside it
only 2 out of 10 times one of them was unable to retrieve becasue "we are unable to deliver that ship a this moment" bug. But still i got money from 2nd ROC
atomic forum
Wow now and when you drop in space whit roc on board of your ship ?
Then it's gone ?
snow maple
i lost my roc, it blew up and now I can summon it
fair fog
@snow maple if you can't summon it on this moon, go to other moon, claim it there
paper forge
Wow now and when you drop in space whit roc on board of your ship ?
This is the trick, you try to stay at same planet or near it as long as possible, move outside orbit only if nessesary. If i summon my ship at daymar, i just keep mining there, no point leaving it. That reduce time you are exposed to loose this wonderfull cargo
pliant matrix
So if I lose my ship because idk I logged out or got 30k I can come back and sell what I mined at a station on that same planet
pallid temple
No
pliant matrix
Also if I log out from ship bed I'll still arrive on that same planet into the ship

No
but "After 30k you come back to nearest outpost on same planet and just retrieve ship with all inventori inside it"

no cutlass or msr
didn't tried with nomad and wont since I updated it to cutlass 10 mins ago xD

Is the Nomad designed to be able to transport the Greycat Roc or not?
@faint fern you can fit it, just get good at backing it in
pliant matrix
what would be a good upgrade to msr actually (flyable or soon). I mean witch can do some cargo without being too much of a brick
c2 (or herc series) seems like a natural upgrade but well too little informations on them for now
steel monolith
Carrack?
pliant matrix
barely flyable solo (flyable but not defendable)
steel monolith
Msr is quite big for solo already
pliant matrix
you can fight in pve quite easy still
steel monolith
Well c2 is too big i guess xd
pallid temple
Msr is quite big for solo already
The Star Runner is not a solo ship
pliant matrix
The Star Runner is not a solo ship
works pretty well solo depending what you do with it
steel monolith
ofc.. basically just lacking firepower then
works fine for cargo or whatever you wanna do
but idk if anything bigger is viable xD
else you get to C2/carrack
pliant matrix
c2 seems to be a one or two people ship. so flyable solo too. second person should be on a turret or scan maybe
seems like there is a turret on the back
pliant matrix
not the same price as c2 xD
steel monolith
i'll join you on C2 xd
quartz laurel
not the same firepower 😄
No pirate is going to mess with the 2 ROC miners while 2 gunners sit in the Perseus next to it 😄
pliant matrix
I want to take the upgrade so bad but 100€ to add is a bit too much
steel monolith
msr to c2 you mean?
pliant matrix
yeah
pliant matrix
bigger and supposed to be easier to pilot than a cat so yeah interesting
quartz laurel
Carrack is a decent and safer hauler than a cat, but that's just me.
fallen blaze
for the prospector, do i have to laser the right part of the asteroid? my laser seems to not have any effect at 100%
digital ferry
I guess this question falls under cargo but I'm not sure tbh. Do we know how many ships will be able to land in the hangar of the endeavour?
green sundial
@fallen blaze what is the content of the asteroid?
fallen blaze
i cant remember now, quite a lot of quantanium
fallen blaze
<@!398493522480726026> were you using the rental prospector?
yep
was probably a server issue
green sundial
unlikely
the stock laser just doesn't have the power you needed
its only good for lower mass, lower resistance rocks
royal lava
so is it worth buying the ROC out right or just renting he prospector. with upgraded bit
quartz laurel
172k for ROC in-game
worth it to mine with, do several runs and you can buy a prospector in a few days
I bought 3 ROC's due to randomly 1 or 2 will bug out and can't retrieve vehicle or claim.
(work around: is to go to another planet and claim ground vehicle).
quartz laurel
nice, how many hrs for that?
mighty hamlet
usually about an hour and a half a run
a little longer if the rocks suck but i got great spots @quartz laurel
mighty hamlet
im working a method now to make 400k plus a run in the same amount of time
but that is hush hush for now
quartz laurel
yesterday I made approx 415k almost 2 full ROC s
mighty hamlet
how long did it take?
quartz laurel
1 full crate in ship cargo and the other partially filled ROC
approx 2 hrs, but I was lucky finding stacks of 12 very close by
mighty hamlet
wait.. you can drop you carts in tthe cargo ship hold and go off for more?
quartz laurel
yes
mighty hamlet
so in a ship like say the mercury star runner how many loads could you do before you had to sell?
quartz laurel
access ROC cargo and select an option to store all to a crate
I was actually using the MSR and had to stop due to hydrogen low on fuel down to 22%
but if you had the cutty black you wouldn't have that problem
you could keep going
mighty hamlet
you could shut ship off though correct?
quartz laurel
i keep it running landed to scoop fuel
mighty hamlet
ahh
quartz laurel
very slow but does help a tiny amount
mighty hamlet
so you scan in the msr?
quartz laurel
enough to reuse on launch and get to slow cruise speed. Yes u can scan
every ship can
mighty hamlet
interesting
i would kinds suck looking for rocks in the roc just driving no?
could the msr fit 2 roc's?
@quartz laurel
quartz laurel
yes, you can easily fit 2 rocs in the MSR
mighty hamlet
so essentially making double the credits
this has me thinking
i believe this can be more profitable for a duo like me and my wife over one mole
quartz laurel
you can in theory just run around in the ROC on the planet, but it might take you longer to find all the good spots while driving also prone to griefers / pkers looking for easy kills.
You would need a supply of o2 pens etc
even a freelancer max can house 2 rocks easy
give it a shot, it's good fun
mighty hamlet
i think dual roc's running out of one msr we will be racking in the credits
so on a normal day what is the time it takes you to get a full load of hadanite?
on average
because i know its not exact it isnt in the mole
quartz laurel
problem with the MSR at the moment is the bug with fuel usage, it runs out very very fast.
absurdly fast.
mighty hamlet
what would be a better ship
coarse cape
problem with the MSR at the moment is the bug with fuel usage, it runs out very ...
if you fly in uncoupled mode while in space it doesn't burn as fast
and in atmo is just depends
rlly
coarse cape
yeah
nb is really bad for msr
just dont use afterburner as well
i dont burn much anyways when i roc mine
quartz laurel
no ab use at all
mighty hamlet
how is the nomad for hydrogen fuel if you carry the roc around?
quartz laurel
i heard the fuel issue for both nomad and msr is going to be fixed next patch but not confirmed exactly when
mighty hamlet
hmmm sounds like the cutlass red it is then
you go to ariel or aberdeen to mine hadanite @quartz laurel ?
heard they were both good
quartz laurel
both are good yep
daymar used to be the go to but seems to have changed
you can still find hadinite on daymar but it's more hit and miss.
easier on the suit and lower grav.
tawny loom
Anyone looking for a crew member/newb
fallow wagon
MSR fuel should be fixed in next patch btw, there was a ticket with confirmation on adjustment
coarse cape
wait so how do you fuel scoop
fallow wagon
it's automatic
I think if you're moving you scoop more (since you're moving through more space), so if you decouple outside of atmosphere and just ride the solar winds you'll regain all your hydrogen
coarse cape
ah
fallow wagon
fuel scoop is only for hydrogen though
coarse cape
yeah

my msr
despawned on me

did you log in from resting in your ship's bed?

Where do you buy the helix head
coarse cape
did you log in from resting in your ship's bed?
nah it just uh dipped
fallow wagon
I ask because there's a bug where if you logout in your ship's bed, log back in, land your ship and get out, it'll despawn
even if you fly around without getting out for an hour
fallow wagon
so say we all
civic barn
Do I want the helix 1 or 2 head
crisp prism
Helix 1 has less range than Helix 2. Other than that, there's no difference
Also... Helix 1 is S1 and Helix 2 is S2, meaning S1 will fit on both the Prospector and M.O.L.E, while the S2 will only fit on the M.O.L.E
paper forge
Helix II can operate to up to 300meters. With MOLE its crucial to efficiently mine with all turrets and keep safe distance
pliant matrix
Are there planets where you doesn't need heat/cold suits?
fallow wagon
Arc Corp I guess
pliant matrix
I meant moons sorry
fallow wagon
considering moons generally wouldn't have any atmopshere, much less a habitable range, I don't think that'd happen
fallow wagon
so it was suggested I should get a better mining laser head for my rented prospector?
I only have like 16k, is there any particular ~10k one someone would recommend?

Size one Helix for 108k aUEC is absolutely needed. Otherwise you are wasing so much time just finding rocks you can even mine.

jump on either a mole or cargo haul to get that money up. solo mining on rented aint really worth it

Hey Guys, do any of you know a good place to mine? (prospektor)
just lost all my aUEC on a bug (just filled a caterpiller to the max, next secound its gone.... had to claim it again)
i know i shouldn't have used all my aUEC, but the server was very good so took the chance -.-'

follow the 30% rule

Big profit are so tempting. With a 1.5mil cat you can make 300k and in 15minutes
That's why I want to climb with mining to 2-3 mil and then make big gambling
harsh mango
yeah i know, i had a weak moment XD

If you want to mine and earn big profits, get either a Helix S1 (108k) or Hofstead S1 (10-15k) mining head and head over to the surface of Daymar. You should search for rocks that you can mine with your laser head (some might be a little to hard) and gives decent profit. Here's a chart you can use:

thanks, i have the Helix so np there... but i might try Daymar xD

Daymar has the largest source of Quantainium deposits I've seen
Assuming you know how to handle volatile cargo, that's pretty good profits
harsh mango
okay will go to daymar'

I never take quant except if I've 60% or more of good stuff inside. you just never have time to mine anything else and must go back to sell instantly

feels good selling your mining haul just to have a 30k happen after youre safe lmao

Quant mining is simply the best way to make money with a pros
just spend the extra 10m to find a quant rock
pliant matrix
yes but the best is to find a quant rock at the end of your run. like when you've70-80% of your pros full
I'm tempted to get a mole. seems like a decent amount of money and safer than roc with all the small issue possible
I can ccu from msr to eclipse then mole for 30€
tacit otter
ROCs are very safe right now
the only real risk is game crash or 30k
game crash can be saved by being in a party to rejoin
30ks affect prospectors too so meh
Ive been earning upwards 200k/hr in the ROC

and ending on your back or being targeted by pirates (happened to me last night)

though I get a lot more doing trading atm with how stable things have been...
like in the last 24h the trade terminal demands have seemed to kinda lax
so I was able to fill an entire cat with laranite and sell all of it in one go
pliant matrix
well rent of massive ships will ends soon so yeah trading will return to normal
tacit otter
I never flip and to avoid pirates just dont mine at a POI
grab your roc and get the hell away
youre more at risk of pirates by being near crusader than hurston
because of grimhex and SPK

I was on arial when a dude fps killed me to take my cutlass and roc
tacit otter
how far were you from the nearest POI?

he got blown off in space when I claimed cutlass xD
