Join in this latest seasonal event which starts all players in the same place and, as the name suggests, focuses on planetary mapping and exploration.

I am having the issue so many had last time around. The nearest building that works for what I need is 13 hours away. To make things worse, when I get into the mech, it becomes 1 Day away…

Things got off to an explosive start…but no building for my ship to be stuck in…drat. Broke my streak of indoor starter ships.

I created a base on the starter planet called Under the Tree at Slanted Rock. Don’t know if it will help anyone but it has a trade terminal, large refiner and a blueprint thingy. 😅 as well as a mech.

You didn’t by chance leave a magnetic resonator there did you?

I wish I could. Would be nice if we could drop items and leave them for others to pick up. Maybe a community chest we could leave them in.

Just found out that the Minotaur can open a Manufacturing Facility. It’s a long walk back.

Well, Mal and I started this this week (Mal a hay earlier than myself) and so far it’s been a lot of fun. I doubt if we will finish it on time --I’m not even sire what “finishing it” means at this point.

But I have to say I’m really enjoying the heck out of the Minotaur. At first it we so clunky and hard to manage it almost seemed like it was not worth it to use it , just run and dig holes for safety.

Mal has his ship ready to fly, while I still have two parts to repair. I have run out of space in all the inventories and having to find ways to keep some space open. lol

Thanks! And thank you for the countdown timer, too!

I’m hoping the first two will return at some point. 🤞

Once it was over and the nagging to do the lore missions started again, I didn’t want to play anymore. 😒
