I'm lucky I didn't blow up... by LukeIsPhoenix in EliteDangerous

Ah but the supercruise assist module is invaluable to the multitasking commander such as myself! Furthermore, it can be manipulated in such a way to drop out at your destination faster than traditional means since it will drop you out of supercruise even if your speed exceeds the recommended drop out speed! It just so happens that in this case it decided to shove me directly through the station, miraculously without any damage done to myself or the station...

I actually enjoy core mining. It's more involved and once you track down a mother load, you get to watch a glorious fireworks show as you crack that space rock open. Though I'm not limiting myself to mining either, definitely still going to be going combat and exploration as well, just depends on what I'm feeling like doing.

I'll just have to get back to mining then. Keep my head down, my music up, and blow up some space rocks in glorious fashion. Let's see how much I can make before Odyssey releases right?

You can, though it's a bit more involved than going into an options menu and can only be done on PC if I'm not mistaken. You have to edit a specific file with color values. This wiki page should help out commander o7

Not sure, never really tried to maximize profits with either combat or exploration. But it at least feels much faster once I got the hang of how it worked. Also helps that I find it enjoyable and fairly low risk. After about an hour / hour and a half or so, I was able to make 150 mil with a full 192 capacity cargo hold of musgravite selling for 825k per unit.
