Thanks for putting me on the spot!

No, realy, We should soon be in a position to adhere to the rule of no spamming at all, but as said, we are still young & need to get propperly organised.

I am working on a solution so that F.O.L.K. members can talk about organisation on a site not related to Egosoft (on another server). I am currently awaiting the address for this, but the host has gone sailing for the weekend & is at Uni. during weekdays. I'll hurry it up as best I can.

What a day!

capped a load of pirates, bought me a new centaur (4th M6), did lots of BBS missions, capped a few ships of them. Then set up a Teladianium loop in lucky planets (3 Teladianuim fabs), cleaned out some pirate bases in my Nova and got promoted to Combat Ace 3rd, then did some more BBS missions (a couple realy good taxi runs) which bumped me up to Magnate. Then set up 2 Crystal Fab loops (not complete loops, just a mine, cahoona bakery, and crystal fab. i can always add to them if need be), one in The Wall, and one in Akeela's Beacon.

thats a long day!

You might be interested to know that a closed supply loop will support not 3 - but 5 teladianium founderies!!

i guessed, seemed to have lost of ECells around, i guess il ad some more if the demand is good, and if i can earn some of the 20 odd mill i spent 2day back!

Make sure you have an Argon police liecenece & go to Xenon 347, when you have cleared that, head for Omicron Lyrea. You should get quite a nice bounty, & prob a few Xenon ships.

simonnance · Post by **simonnance** » Sun, 9. May 04, 15:05

i would but:

prob 1: i have a 29 fact loop in OL

prob 2: that Xenon sector has been cleaned out and they arent resupplying it. infact all the Xenon sectors are cleaned out (except for stations) and they dont want to respawn!

20 mil. in 1 shot, you must be raking it in.

Just wondering, but are you lot an RP clan, or just a chat clan?

We are a clan just like any other! The only diference is that we are young & still organising.

I would also like to say, that we are a group who help others who can't find an answar, mostly we can help as most of us are experienced in X2

nope,just working like mad, capping, BBS, some from my facts.

hopefully will be raking it in afterwards though!

set up some more fabs 2day, a crystal fab to support my ssp in KE, and a bogas in Teladi space, they realy need the stuff!

Millandson, we are more of a chat clan, encoraging ppl to play X2 ect

And doing very well! 1 week and 13 pages is excellent progress. Clans needn't RP in any case. If they are related to X2 in some way; they are all as valid as each other.

Well; Thanks for the compliment! You know where to come next time you have a prob now.

ive done the ore belt misison and

Spoiler

Show

blew up the khaak base

but they still keep coming...... dont do it if im not in system!

Dull, grey monday morning, back in the orifice for another week.

I set up a Teladianium loop with four fabs in Preacher's Void. Seems to do well. I think the sun is only 100% so not sure I can support a fifth fab there.

Lucky Planets is Argon. Didn't know the Argon had much use for Teladianium. The Paranid use the stuff loads so my fabs are always totally sold out, but I haven't yet seen any Argon fabs using Teladianium?

simonnance · Post by **simonnance** » Mon, 10. May 04, 11:46

saw that, do they always do that, or does it die down after you complete the plot?

i have like 10 abandoned stations up in the north field coz i coulndt be bothered to constantly replace lost ships!

BTW, im thinking of doing a spot of mobile mining, done a little before, but got put of by having to drag huge amounts of minerals around looking for a buyer.

i was thinking of buying a few mines areound the place and using them as storage and selling depots. That way the computer comes to me, i only have to unload at the mines in question, and i can get max price for the goods

.

anyone else done this and had success with this tactic? Do mines sell well to the AI on max price? I might just set up the mines without a ECell buyer ship so they are just there as selling points for my mining ops!

Do we have any mining genei (plural of genius) here on F.O.L.K? I can handle the collecting part, i just want to sell easily without scripts......

darn mining laser and its tiny range

darn rotating roids hitting me

"Mining Laser.... Damaged"

if its damaged why cant i fik the darn thing!

Timbuk2 · Post by **Timbuk2** » Mon, 10. May 04, 11:52

Not done any mobile mining whatsoever.

I've stuck a mobile mining device on me Mammoth, so might try it soon.

Got the bird coming over tonight and tomorrow night, so probably won't get to try it till wed.

simonnance · Post by **simonnance** » Mon, 10. May 04, 11:54

watch out using the laser on the mamoth, you have to get so close that you tend to hit the roid!

not good

Timbuk2 · Post by **Timbuk2** » Mon, 10. May 04, 12:08

Whats best to mine with? I've got a spare mercury sitting in me Mammoth?

Did you see my post about Teladianium foundries at the end of page 13 Simon?

simonnance · Post by **simonnance** » Mon, 10. May 04, 13:13

lucky planets is Boron actualy, their second Shipyard sector (KE, Ocean of Fantasy, Great Reef and Depths of Silence are the other 4). Boron like Teladianium

if membroy serves, a SSP can support 9 fabs, so 1 silicon mine, 1 level1 food, one level2 food, 1 crystal fab and 5 teladianium makes 9

in greater than 100% sun you realy need more than one crystal fab each, im going to try looping in Akeela's beacon (450%

)

i'll have to do the math for that one!

As for mining, a TS is good, Demeter is the only one with a front mount for the Mining laser though, and the Merc and Dolphin dont have the capability.

i might pool all the Hornets i nicked of pirates and use them, my be a bit easier. Gives me a secondary reason to pick on the pirate ships too!
