High-tech systems have the best inventory, look there. The higher population the better.

Resource Extraction site. Spawns pirates and space cops that shoot each other. HAZRES is best left alone until you have a Vulture or better.

only 24 LY, so 4 jumps max on any respectable trade ship
>>
>>128467901

In my Anaconda with 17ly laden, it's a 2 jump route, and both stations are less than 50ls from their respective suns.

So not long at all. Once the servers unshit themselves, I'm going to time a full ABA run and calculate credit profit.

I managed one full run of it though. I think I got 902,000 for the slaves with 452 cargo, and 532,000 for the berylium.

450 cargo, 10 mins per run, 3200cr per ton per run, that's about 8-12 mil per hour in a tradeconda in a very optimum situation. Note that I'm stupid for trading so I don't know how long it takes to make 2 jumps plus docking and selling the cargo. So it's mostly guesstimating
Pretty close to Rodrigo if you ask me, but still no 20+ mil an hour. Less infuriating, if that counts

>>
>>128468301

>>128468301

Considering with Robigo you can get 50 million worth of missions in one go, Robigo will probably win without much contest, but you don't have to deal with shitty, broken mechanics with regular trading. Plus, Vision Route will always be there in case they nerf Robigo even further.
>>
>>128468352
If it's only two jumps with stations that close, it should be like 10 minutes. My 3 station, 7 jump route was 20 minutes at its fastest. Looks like the profits on this one edge it out by a big enough margin.

In my Cutter it looks like I could make about 14 million an hour on this one.
>>
>>128468678
In my A-rated Asp with 72t fuel and 72t cargo I make 30-40mil in 1,4 time.

>>128469953
old route yields more per run but takes more time

new route is less profitable but much shorter

over the same period of time, you make more money with the new route
>>
>>128469803
Tempted to try and pick people off once they're more than 500 out, a lot of people won't be running shields or weapons since they're outfitted for exploring.
>>
>>128469953
My old route made almost twice the money overall, but took twice as long. So you'd be making 1.4 million every 10 minutes vs 2.6 million ever 20 minutes (aka 1.3 million every 10 minutes).
>>
>>128469219
Process kills are unnecessary. Submit to any interdiction and just boost away. Scanner range is just 3km and you easy outboost that.
And, learn to drop out of SC right in front of the mail slot.

I run windowed so I can kill task just in case, though I almost never have to

Too often I find myself in a situation when a rogue security guy millions of Ls away finds out that I'm smuggling and when I drop down to the station I find him right beside me already scanning me. No way I'm outboosting that

That brings you up to just over four million per hour. The route is 19035.4 per ton per hour.

How would you deal with their obviously superior jump range?
It could be wise to estabilish a blockade of the major systems through which the expedition is more likely to travel from now on, rather than trying to chase exploration vessels.
However, given the lack of outposts to repair and restock, the blockade would work only if a continous stream of reinforcements could replace the casualties and the damaged vessels.
We all know /edg/ lacks any coordination to perform this task but there's also to blame the instancing of the game and solo mode, if such things will never be really effective.

Fuck nevermind I just noticed my gold was wrong so I deleted it. My old route is still the most profitable, compared to >>128466664 and
>>128484675

Prices and times are from my Cutter with no interdictions, the rest is extrapolated.

The "Old Route" is Marrallang (Stromgren) Imperial Slaves -> HR 571 (Shavyrin) Gold -> Shapsugabus (Abe) Berrylium -> Marrallang.

If you can get to 15.75 Ly laden, you can cut off about a minute by jumping directly to Shapsugabus from HR 571.

I think this would be the bare minimum. You could put a fuel tank and/or fuel scoop to increase the range, and a few hardpoints to deal with the eventual pirates.

The FDL is an interceptor, not a tank. Fuck at least one of those HRPs off and throw some SCB in instead. Much better to rely on shields than hull in this ship.

Also, replace at least one of those Chaffs with either ECM or Point Defence, probably point with your power situation and overall look of inexperience.

Yes, though it's hard to gauge because your range depends heavily on your SC throttle range at the time.

Also better FSDi causes the target's escape vector to pull away from them harder.

For a game that likes to wave it's realistic space credentials around you'd think FD could make space (black holes, neutron stars all that shit) a bit less boring.

Having environmental hazards that cover a big section of a system would add flavor if done right. Not sure if it would change much practically but it would still be welcome variety. Of course knowing FD it would break a bunch of mission and NPC shit that goes unpatched.
