What are you doing (ingame) now?

Sooo, I decided to not let my SRV 'splode. I took power plant damage, and now my ship is virtually unusable as I have no AFM's equipped and have to vary power significantly to do anything but can't keep my life support on so I can't just fly to the station on this planet. If I drive in my SRV to the station can I rejoin my ship at the station? Or must I have previously docked in order to do that? Really don't want to lose them Mod. Terminals.

My current Mine-aconda build. I'm thinking of pulling cargo space and putting a large scoop and a hangar bay on it, an AFM, maxing thrusters, and calling it my new back-to-jaques-to-mine vessel.

Even if the station lets you park, I think calling your ship to land there might make the port hostile, like landing at a station without requesting docking... But if you're going to blow up anyway, May as well try it.

Thanks. I was unaware of the Repair/Reboot Function :/ until after I had left my ship. I recalled it but it nose planted right in front of me. It would've taken way too long to get back to the station anyhow as I was 920km away. I may have to try this though when I'm closer and with a throwaway ship just so I know in the future.

Good news is I'm seeing way more missions for Modular Terminals now and will soon be up to 12, after having 4 for the longest time with not seeing any others.

"The rumor was right ...

You're not running 400t+ of high value metals or other, traded goods you bought on the market.
You're carrying 8t of Gallite, 5t of Indite, 3t of Platinum and one whole ton of Osmium you just mined, and finally left the rings, because you didn't find any Painite in all that mining!

Yes ... you're the one I'm looking for! The one with the big haul!" -- Pirate(s), more yet every 30-90 seconds, twice per jump

Seriously. I haven't mined much since getting an Anaconda (much more money in running 400t+ of goods), but I need Painite to unlock yet another engineer, plus I wanted so Samarium too. And ... deeeeeaaaammmmnnnnn did the pirates come after just that 17t of that crap in my cargo hold!

So, about 5 jumps later, after 10 dead pirates worth over 1Mcr in bounty, total, I just moved my Expert combat experience up from 20% to 25% towards Master, and I'm suddenly allied with the Federation again with a 94% reputation, while it was only 58% prior and just friendly.

All because I made the mistake of mining. No wonder I kept getting attacked when I mined in my Python prior!

Too bad for the pirates I have all that >1,000MJ shielding in my Anaconda, and my entire, efficient weapons array of Burst Turrets and a Gimballed Class 4 Multi-Cannon means I put only need to put 1.5-2 pips to keep the guns ablazing, constantly and without end. I honestly don't know how I lived prior. I really don't.

It was funny to have a Python, Vulture and DBX on me, a 3 on 1 engagement, and they got me without me submitting (how, I don't know, I tried), and even waiting for the long cool down and subsequent high wake to kick in, they still couldn't get my shields down to even 2 bars!!!

Bitch'n Betty: "Warning ... thermal attack ..."
Me: (yawn)

Seriously f'd up NPC pirate logic. I'm just glad I'm in a freak'n Anaconda now.

**WARNING - Mild RANT**

Wings - an excellent method of creating a cooperative in order to complete goals.. BUT.. why do they keep failing..?
I was in a wing with Kharma last night.. Kharma got interdicted..shouldn't be an issue, two of us winged can support one another and either fight or flee without loss.. but immediately when Kharma dropped out to normal space.. "Mismatch" error and I CTD.
By the time I get back in again - it's all over!!

It is getting a bit frustrating now..

CMDR's - are you having any issues with wings, or is it just us..?

**RANT Over**

did the pirates come after just that 17t of that crap in my cargo hold!

I’ve been attacked by a wing of 5 for 1 (one!) ton of gravel that was left after a visit to an engineer.

AI’s in Elite are just as stupid as they come!

CMDR's - are you having any issues with wings, or is it just us..?

All the time! It’s definitely not just you. And FD's QA would too, if they ever happened to test wings!

After losing four modular terminals {and my ship} last night, the few hours after that have given me more {32/25} than I need to unlock Qwent and more than I'd seen visiting dozens of different mission boards. Maybe it was the galaxy feeling sorry. Maybe it was being high rep in an area with an okay supply of factions. Maybe it was both. Off to Sirius to drop off what he needs.

Allies never respond fast enough in my case. But I haven't cared ... since moving to an Anaconda, and definitely not now that my resulting shield strength are >>1,000 MJ. NPCs get toasted, although I still run if there are more than 2-3, depending on the ship. Not worth chancing it, plus my shields will take the time it takes to run, even if I (somehow) don't submit and get pulled out with the long FSD cool down.
