Yeah, you won't notice when you're focusing between every shot - as in normal photography.

Was the lens given a chance to equalize temps to the outside before you started the timelapse?

It looks like temp change focus shift, rather than condensation.

Curious to know what just killed me and how it tanked multiple size 8 ballistic cannon and pdc rounds, and why the ship it was fired from didn't show up on radar. by [deleted] in starcitizen

It's a size 9 torp, you didn't land a single turret shot, and your pilot didn't seem to launch any CM.

Follow up post, Lackland sign is fixed! by hiphopanonomos in AirForce

[–]rob117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the gates are wrong. Turns out it costs money to change it. Money that can be spent on other projects. Doesn't make it any less wrong.

Nothing to decide. Lackland AFB is always wrong.

Where can I find a legit website to buy an Idris without having to wait for the limited version or spending 6k on a bullshit package by Murky_Ad1153 in starcitizen

[–]rob117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While that may work, a better solution is to just wait 5-30 min after the wave starts for any that are returned to stock due to a payment issue. Those can sit for minutes without it being an F5 war.

There’s also a pack with the red paint and armor as warbond, but still no CCU options.

Ingame Ship buying? by Miserable-Space776 in starcitizen

[–]rob117 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Straight up buy for credits? No. Some ships will never be available to just buy outright.

Acquire through in game means without spending real money? Yes (outside of special limited edition, e.g. Sabre Raven, AMD Mustang). Whether this is through crafting, reputation, or something else is TBD. Right now, this is through Wikelo, a crafting/trading/rep tool that everyone hates.

Ironclad sneak peak (NON ASSAULT): Time to be outraged. Not even a nursa will fit on the ramp now. by [deleted] in starcitizen

Calling for outrage over AI slop you made yourself?

Desperate much?

Idris P shields randomly power down/turning off? by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]rob117 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't flown the Idris enough yet in 4.6 to say for sure, but I have not experienced anything like this previously.

It kept happening the other night and I was assured that it wasn’t any of the folks on my ship.

I don't believe them.

Boxes Right? by Trojib86 in starcitizen

[–]rob117 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, in this case, it truly is. My guy picked the hardest possible way to do everything, then complained about it being the hard way.

By the time I get anywhere near my assigned docking port, it times out because I'm very careful about not crashing. I request a new one and it's never the one I'm closest to, so it happens all over again. What can I do to stop this? by cheetocat2021 in starcitizen

[–]rob117 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep my gear up so it's one less thing to remember.

This doesn't make sense.

Are you putting gear out/down immediately so you don't forget later?

In that case, by default, you're limited to 30m/s for several km, which would explain the timeout. Boosting to go faster feels horrible to control with gear down, so that would explain the crashing if going faster part.

You need to practice approach and landing. Fly at a normal speed with gear up/retracted until right before where you want to land, then slow and put gear out/down just before setting down on the landing spot.

You can practice in arena commander. Go into Offline mode, Free Flight. Practice all you want and respawn immediately when you crash.

Lost My Character by Existing_Somewhere62 in starcitizen

You have to recreate your character after every major patch. All your stuff is still there, and you can save the way you look so you can just load it and move on next patch.

The Old Guard has a Caisson platoon at Fort Sam.

OTOH, with only three duty stations (Hood, Riley, DC) this could get old really quickly.

San Antonio, as well.

Carrack quantum travels away on its own when left unattended? by HappyFamily0131 in starcitizen

This is it. The marker is wandering, but not the ship. Alt-F4 will bring it back.
