Lost patience...

Postby Falcon_D » Fri Sep 04, 2015 1:34 am

And bought Lady Jayne (my new Python.)

Hello,

Was updating my assets and credits on Inara the day before and realized that I had just barely enough to afford a new E-rated Python (which was something I had been aiming for, for sometime.)

So last night, went out with Gabriel (my Vulture) one last time to the CZ made about 2mil, came back in sold her, took Terralain (my Asp) to the port where Flamestrike (my Cobra) and Silkstalker (my Imp Courier) were. Sold Terralain and Silkstalker, took Flamestrike out to search for a Shipyard which sold a Python in a Li Yong-Rui controlled system. Ended up in Lembava.

Actually had just enough credits to buy the Python (48mil) without selling Flamestrike, but that would have left me with only 100cr. No upgrades and no insurance coverage. So I ended up selling Flamestrike for Lady Jayne. I also realized that its about time that I went back to just one ship again. It was cool having multiple ships, specialized for different types of activities but moving the fleet around was becoming a real pain. And I'm the kind of person who likes all my stuff within close proximity.

So... introducing: Lady Jayne (http://inara.cz/cmdr-fleet/4034/9274), my new Python. :)

Regards.

Good Luck with the purchase. Now you just need to work for a while to get the Modules up to snuff. You will enjoy it, but remember, it is not a Vulture, its slow to turn :) It does, however, tank a lot better.

Thanks CMDRs.
Will spend the rest of my game time upgrading her. Going to try the Huton Orbital run with her. :)
See how it goes.

Have fun. Fly safe.

If you are strapped for cash I would hold off on the Hutton run. Just did it earlier today in my python.

total profit from 196 or so tons of cargo, 400 Cr
Ship integrity cost form traveling the .22ly. 400 000 Cr.

Welcome to the Python Club :D

I've had "Monty, of course" for a week now & am enjoying the shed out of her ;)

...and I haven't seen any stupidly-huge integrity costs so far :D

Treat them right, and Python's really aren't that expensive to fly. :D (Expensive to outfit, sure...but fly...not as much, in my experience.)

Unless maybe you're some crazy Evil Knievel who likes to cheat death and scrape asteroids. :mrgreen:

Integrity costs aren't bad at all. It's the fact that the Hutton run is just that long my python hit 33%.
When I check it normally i get maybe a 5k bill every two hours of play by my guess.

Guess people are still a bit wary of integrity costs since Frontier adjusted their methods with 1.3 and suddenly you could get integrity bills rivaling the cost of a brand new ship.
