Anyone find the satellite with the mines all around it?
Anyone find the satellite with the mines all around it?
Jumped into a new system today, and a ship hailed me. They wanted me to get the data from a satellite. Only problem was that the satellite was surrounded by mines - the explosive sort, not the asteroid mining sort. And I wasn't allowed to just shoot the mines because any explosion would destroy the data.
I coasted in to about 600m and then, inevitably, BOOM! There was a groan from the other ship, and they jumped out.
Anyone got a better way to solve this than just "git gud"? The mines are tiny and it's hard to see where they are in relation to the ship, especially with a Guardian with the tall fins.
You're viewing a single thread.
During one of the intro to flying, there was a ship sneak mission. You had to turn off all your ships systems except 1 pip of power to the engines, and just slowly putter up to the target. That's what I did when I encountered this satellite surrounded by asteroids.
I tried that! Well, maybe I didn';t have the engines all the way down. I was coasting in as slowly as I could, but maybe the power levels are the determining factor.
I'll try that next time. Thanks!
