Given the season that is almost upon us and the facts that I am easily amused and have more ships then I honestly know what to do with. I have decided to create some seasonal themed ships so without further ado allow me to introduce GSS Sleepy Hollow

I know, I just discovered it myself today, I have different themes now applied to all my ships. The cockpit layout may be the same but having different themes really makes them feel different.

Cmdr Greybeard Seawolf @greybeardseawolf.bsky.social · 2d

I'm loving the ''Shipyard'' feature of EDHM-UI. Allowing further customisation of our ships by letting us apply individual colour themes to specific ships and have them load automatically when you change ships. Very cool. #EliteDangerous

For a change of pace I took my Imp Clipper out gathering Meta-Alloys and TDC's last night. I hadn't really flown it before but Holy Fuck Batman it's noisy I don't know if Caustic Cabbages have ears but if they do they would have heard me from 11 LY away

Oooh nice

With 2 MVR's you'd just have to look at the fire button and the rock would be depleted

Well done mate that is some impressive mining and hauling

Cmdr Greybeard Seawolf @greybeardseawolf.bsky.social · 3d

I love mine too but an extra 514 tons is just too much to ignore

Teaming the Type 11 and the Panther Clipper Mk II for a Mining/Hauling CG is a match made in heaven 12,413 tons of Platinum delivered, 4,132,911,654 profit.

I've found that directly transferring the cargo in smaller amounts while a pain does seem to work.

Cmdr Greybeard Seawolf @greybeardseawolf.bsky.social · 4d

There is an issue, the work around is to sell the cargo to their carrier at minimum price and buy it back unfortunately this will not work for a mining CG as selling and purchasing the mined material changes the mined tag to a purchased one meaning the goods no longer count towards the CG

Cmdr Greybeard Seawolf @greybeardseawolf.bsky.social · 4d

I've had no issues tonight

Cmdr Greybeard Seawolf @greybeardseawolf.bsky.social · 4d

No I've been playing all evening without issue.

My life fades. The vision dims. All that remains are memories. I remember a time of chaos... ruined dreams. These young whippersnappers have no idea of what we lost, what we faced and how we won. Never Forget.

Unfortunately I don't think it's really a bug when you purchase the goods even from your own carrier the Mined tag gets changes to a Purchased tag which is why they no longer count. What can be fixed is the ridiculously slow transfer speed when transferring goods directly from cargo to ship.

A couple of years ago I was flying along minding my own business when a CMDR suddenly appeared in the seat beside me. We stared at each other in confused awkward silence for about 20 seconds and then he disappeared.

Oops yes sorry I forgot to mention that

I've since moved on to another system because the one I was in got depleted, I'm in a single hotspot now and after a shaky start I'm getting similar results now.

While I really like the move towards role specific ships I'd love to see the older ships get engineering upgrades to make them SCO compatible and give them a new lease of life.

Cmdr Greybeard Seawolf @greybeardseawolf.bsky.social · 7d

The game is not a race to make Billions/Rank up/ Engineer everything to G5. It's about the journey rather than just the destination. Take your time and enjoy the ride.
