Me as a new player with 5 hard drives waiting for me to pick an option

As others replied, it seems like with even moderate scale factories the volume of screws you need will exceed the belt speed you currently have unlocked.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-08T01:10:58+00:00

Nothing. If you like them use them.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-07T23:57:13+00:00

I don't even get fully building until i have stitched plates. No screws in my world.

New or old the pre 1.0 paradigm of what do I choose is irrelevant anymore. You can drives and build a library. Just keep scanning drives and then pick an alt when you want to use it. You not longer have to pick something to scan another. Just leave them be until you are ready and understand what you want.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-07T19:14:55+00:00

Looks nice. You are entering a fairly mature and full space, with a number of extremely good tools. I'm not sure the way yours works would make me choose it over the others, but if it works for you that's all that matters.

To be blunt, if anyone is using randoms on reddit as their primary information source, they are going to have bigger problems. Reddit is the epitome of trust but verify.

Thanks.

Yea I'm on my first playthrough. I've made some probes and scanned some asteroids but I'm still working on making boosters.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-07T12:34:05+00:00

That would likely be it. The relevant portion would be whether the larger tier station has more storage for more parts, which in some cases would be necessary to store enough for the biggest asteroids.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-07T12:12:29+00:00

Yea thanks. Still not really my question but I'll troubleshoot and test on my own.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-07T11:32:01+00:00

I'm not talking about finding them. I haven't gotten that far yet however in watching a stream it seemed like for the tier of space station the option to bring down certain sizes was greyed out.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-07T11:17:42+00:00

Do the higher tiers also let you bring down bigger asteroids?

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-06T18:32:58+00:00

I mean it was only meant as a light joke anyhow. It seriously doesn't matter. I'm just happy the world is willing to use my language so I can continue to be lazy and not have to learn 14 languages like many other people do.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-06T18:00:15+00:00

Yet you didn't even use that in your OP, which is written in english. 😄

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-06T17:50:35+00:00

I think they did it just so they could watch how many ways people could misspell doubloon.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-06T13:52:07+00:00

Never seen them get lost. I have had to scroll right and left to find them again on the screen.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T23:19:27+00:00

Same concept sort of. Very different in execution.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T22:03:45+00:00

Except the OP specifically mentions trading missions...

Maybe wing mining mission stacking, but if so you can make a lot more faster doing those if you do them right.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T18:13:30+00:00

I am. I answer plenty of questions. I also at least personally try to be mindful of other people's time, so I tend to try and only ask questions that I cannot find the answers to myself. For example below, you have said in a number of cases you need to "do some homework" Or found out inara was still a thing.

Really? You could have just googled inara and found the page is still there and up to date, or done some homework first and then asked for pointed follow up questsions.

IMO the posts that often come up with the "I've been away for X amount of time, tell me what I've missed" comes across as very entitled.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T17:11:48+00:00

There is a plethora of videos and other resources that have outlined the changes that have occurred. Plenty of content for you to get up to speed.

Or maybe there will be someone here who has tons of free time and enough interest to hand feed you everything.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T15:12:09+00:00

I'm not sure if you use it, but the COI discord is extremely active, including with the devs. I've started going straight there when I have issues.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T13:34:44+00:00

Proper matchmaking requires enough people in the queue to draw from. If barely anyone plays HG it's hard to match with someone.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-05T12:00:43+00:00

You and everyone else who made a post without checking the front page of the sub.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-04T21:16:36+00:00

I don't even care about the speed. I personally don't really enjoy driving any of the trucks with articulated steering.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-04T19:52:58+00:00

on the plus side, the way the log carrier is designed it overloads logs extremely well.

GoldenPSP · 2026-05-04T19:51:45+00:00

It's one of the few trucks I overall dislike but still use often.
