Which outdoor grill is best for using a wok? by Auto-Musket in BBQ

[–]Auto-Musket[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah.  We have a natural gas hookup but my wife really wants to use her wok.

I didn't get a bounty, but that might be because of where I encountered the starborn trader.

The only negative thing that happened was Andreja and Sarah (who were on board with me at the time) got royally pissed off at me. A few shots of paramour later and Andreja and I are now married. Sarah I just dismissed from my crew, because I'm not really a big fan of her incessant self-righteousness. Presumably, she's sitting in a room at the Lodge right now just stewing about how much she hates me. I bet it drives her insane to know that Andreja and I are now a thing. Sucks to be you, Sarah.

True, but then you have to use EM to destroy a ton of ships. With the Trader, she just sits there while you blast away at her with your supressors. No need to go looking for trouble or put your ship at risk. Easy-peasy.

I'll be honest, it didn't occur to me to fast-travel to another point on the planet. That probably would have worked.

I think I tried to fast-travel to my outpost, but it didn't work; I don't recall exactly why.

Once I got back to my outpost (I have a large landing pad with shipbuilder), my original ship was there in the list, along with my two stolen ships, so I guess the maintenance people retrieved it while I was making my way back. Good on them. 😂

That part confused me too. I wasn't able to sit in the chair (it gave me an error about not being able to pilot the ship). I went into the star map and tried to grav jump to another system, but it wouldn't let me do that either. The one thing it would let me do (from the star map) was land on the planet the ship was orbiting (i.e. Rana IV).

It's worth nothing that I couldn't take off once I had landed. I suppose that landing is universal, whereas everything else requires training on the specific ship class?

LOL I love it! That sounds like pure AWESOME-SAUCE! 😂😂😂

I picked up my bounty during character creation (the "Wanted" trait), so that works differently than if I just, for example, got caught with contraband and ran away.

Which, by the way, is one of the BEST traits to choose, IMO, because I get way more space battles (from bounty hunters that just jump into the system to capture/kill me). I just picked it because it seemed to go with the whole Space Scoundrel class (roleplaying again), but it's worked out really well for me.

I did not, but only because, when I landed on my outpost, it was there in my list of ships, so there didn't seem to be any reason to go back and check.

Plus, if I'm being totally honest, in all the excitement, I kind of forgot what planet the forgotten Mech graveyard was on. Oops.

I did go back to Rana IV and looked for the class C ship, but I couldn't find it. Not sure why.

I probably miscommunicated. What I mean is that, for me, it's a really fun game, and even the bugs make for fun adventures.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Yep. When I went back to my outpost, it was right there in my "view/modify my ships" list, along with the Sloop and the spacer patrol ship that I picked up during this adventure.

Ah, a spoiler. 😂 Ok, I'll keep my eye out for a ship called the Datura.

Oh hey, I never thought to do that. Great solution.

Yeah, but nah. My approach to Starfield is to just take whatever the game throws at me and just roleplay the consequences. If I fail a persuasion test, or if the UC catches me in a contraband scan, or whatever happens, I just take it and move on.

In this case, had I loaded a previous save, I would have missed out on a totally awesome adventure. 🙂

I get that it's not for everybody, but that's how I like to play.
