if you're curious... fly at 75% speed into a ring.... it will automatically drop you out of super cruise when you're close enough. then you can fly around. | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 20:04:33 |
badloop |
also, you cannot fly through planetary rings.... but you can mine them for materials. mining is another big activity. | ||

supercruise is great... and awful. most times it works, sometimes it throws you into a planet because its dumb. you just take a bit of damage that you can repair at the next station. | ||

badloop |
bingo, you've got iit | ||

on the left | ||

badloop |
look for \"filter\" | ||

badloop |
you can set it to super cruise in the left menu | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 20:01:17 |
badloop |
it would be helpful to view the filter list in your external menu | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 20:01:00 |
badloop |
yes, the yellow/orange color is the giveaway | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 20:00:38 |
badloop |
you can also see it in the external menu on the left | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 20:00:19 |
badloop |
yes thats it.... set it as your target | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:59:52 |
badloop |
look off of the main orbital plane as well | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:59:22 |
badloop |
set your tuner far left | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:59:14 |
badloop |
ok, then you can ignore everything except for orange arrows in your fss... just move around all over the place till you see them | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:58:12 |
badloop |
is this the system that you're supposed to be scanning? | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:57:15 |
badloop |
now throttle down all the way | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:56:44 |
badloop |
throttle up | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:55:57 |
badloop |
yes I would | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:55:08 |
badloop |
there it is... flight miscellaneous | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:54:45 |
badloop |
also you need to be sure you're scanning the correct system | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:54:25 |
badloop |
look in your config under \"flight throttle\" maybe | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:54:01 |
badloop |
there are three speeds.... normal, super cruise, and hyperspace | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:53:31 |
badloop |
you have to enter super cruise mode.... try pressing k | ||

the orange arrows are for mission specific stuff. if you're just out there discovering/exploring and you don't have any missions, they'll stay white | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:52:20 |
badloop |
yes... get into FSS, leave your tuner all the way to the left, and just move around until your arrows turn orange | ||

you can now see how a site like Coriolis is helpful. at higher levels you have a million options and you can plan your ship ahead of time before you even build it. then you can use inara to find where the items are that you need and fly there | ||

badloop |
it will automatically scoop for you | ||
| Oct 20, 2021 19:49:15 |
badloop |
you just fly close enough to the star to scoop, but not close enough to overheat. |
