To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

My manual flying skills are good enough to succeed at Search & Rescue but Taylor City - Ayingre -11,-6,0 is proving a step to far !

Initial approach:

Next day and a fuel tank later:

My savegame at it's neighbour:

Could anyone confirm this so an issue can be placed ?

Hello @TycMozo Welcome!

 

I see two problems here.

 

1) 20 passenger cabins is overkill. A ship of these characteristics should not support more than 8.

Never fly with more mass than you need; you can buy the passenger cabins required to fulfill a mission, and sell them when not needed.

 

2) In general, the engines thrust of ships of Pioneer vanilla have very little power to handle certain cases, like this one.

Ok much appreciated thanks.

Reason for the cabins is the loss of 300cr each. I wanted to play legit so have not used any money cheats. However i have since sold 8 of them as i'm unable to complete more than two passenger missions without time running out.

 

Thanks for taking the time to check it out (and the welcome !).
