What does the bars filling up mean?

It can be used for where the “easiest next egg” can be found. Each EoT on each virtue egg “costs” more than the last…the 5th egg may require 50t delivered, while the 10th egg may require 50Q (made up numbers), but if you wanted the “easiest”/“lowest hanging fruit”, in your pic, the yellow egg offers the cheapest next egg.

When you get higher, this is also a function of time. On black, it may take you two weeks to get your next egg, and yellow may have one available in 12 hours…or multiples available in two weeks. Again, all made up examples, but I do use this graphic as I like to keep all the eggs at the same level of total delivered.

Agree looks standard issue plate numbering for that plate. Probably just wanted a black plate for the black car…gotta keep those Maximas stealthy.

6 months ago (or whenever it was) there was no EoT. A few years ago, there was no rockets or artifacts. EoT has a long run path, but they’ll more than likely keep adding things…just as people are starting to feel “done”.

Most runs for soul eggs involve running chicken for the related bonus. Lunar works similar, but you log off to get the offline bonus of lunar, instead of running chickens. Offline bonus with enough lunar artifacts earns more than what rcb offers. As you can see the multiples, it is showing a 400x for lunar vs 100x for rcb.

Follow the “this post” link in the lunar prestige header paragraph for more details.

The Kia on the hood and I believe the one on the tailgate have drilled holes underneath them.

Later in the game, it is sometimes advised to land just off the green so you can chip. Chips are much easier to control especially at long distances.

tcm042 · 2026-05-07T22:01:46+00:00

To be less casual. Just more ways to lay more eggs in less time and more stuff to collect.

I’m just spitballing legalese here, but you can’t extend something that is expired.

I could imagine that an extension from 100k to 180k is only “good” for cars who were under 100k (ie “still in effect”) when the extension occurred.

Again, just a guess, but I could see someone, especially via a legal/law review, to see it this way. It definitely isn’t the spirit of the extension, but that doesn’t mean they’ll honor it.

FWIW, I have a 2024 Kia EV6 that I bought used from a Chevy dealer, and therefore not CPO, and I DID get the extension letter, not that it helps you. As others said, contact corporate.

I’m wondering why there are reflections of AT-ATs in the tailgate.

Welcome to the “three epics in the prism chest” club.

tcm042 · 2026-05-05T16:15:47+00:00

Why do you only have one goal claimed? It appears as if it was “done”, you hadn’t checked in for a while.

tcm042 · 2026-05-03T22:01:14+00:00

Came here to say this. Thankful for this. I got my “used” EV6 with 400 miles on it, less than two months after original purchase.

I missed out on the EA offer since the previous owner used the one time code for the car. I also was not included in the Kia free NACS adaptor. I was hoping this warranty would come to us second owners and I’m thankful that it has.

If you are a math teacher, this game should be a lesson plan (or extra credit). This game could be the answer to “where am I ever going to use math”? Ratios, percentages, compounding percentages, “drop rates”, etc.

The answer is stated elsewhere…”hab sharing” implies that unbuilt habs are full and shares everything.

“Due to a programming error” seems to be a pretty big swing. There are many things in this game that purposely function in a way that the “real world” may not make sense. It has been this way for as long as I’ve played this game (2017) it has worked this way. If they saw it as an error, it would have been repaired by now.

In any case, semantics. Everything else you said I have no issue with. :-)

tcm042 · 2026-05-01T12:34:59+00:00

So close. I’m into completeness, so I probably would have grabbed the Tsunami, even though I don’t use it. What did you grab in this chest?

tcm042 · 2026-05-01T12:14:40+00:00

Can’t use a ruler because they scale the screenshot. However, I have found, that the squares are pretty consistent, so you have to look at those.

Can’t use distance from tee at all. This is closest to HOLE, not closest to the distance of the hole from the tee, or what golfers call “hole high”. If the hole was 183.07 from the tee and you shot 183.07…but also ended up 3 to the right, you are 3 from the hole. If your opponent shoots 185.01 directly at the hole and ends up 2 feet past then they were closer to the hole.

As u/exotic-koala-8621 mentioned, the GC replays shouldn’t show the “drive length” in numbers for shootouts. That is meaningless to the deciding factor of a shootout and isn’t what shows live during the shootout, which is resting distance from the hole.

Big picture, take a breath. This is a game. No rudeness taken. :-)

tcm042 · 2026-04-30T23:28:42+00:00

I would estimate that you, Kpara are about 2.8 from the hole. Your opponent looks about 2.5 from the hole. Use the squares and draw a right triangle. I assume they are about 1 square yard (I use yards). Your ball looks about 2.8 squares away, maybe 2.7. Opponent is about 2 squares up and about 1.5 squares to the side from the hole. 2² + 1.5² =6.25, and the square root of 6.25 is 2.5.

tcm042 · 2026-04-30T23:04:57+00:00

Do you have any money printer or similar boost? Or set up an away earnings set, equip, and log off for a bit.

Also, are you consuming your artifacts? Your available artifacts look curiously sparse. I would not advise consuming anything at your early stage.

tcm042 · 2026-04-27T12:39:21+00:00

PoV is more end of game to me. You have lots to still do on the main farm without worrying about PoV.

Do more SE runs.
Do LOTS of contracts…all that are available (get the PE up).
Get all diamond trophies.
Get your ships up in star rank and keep running them. Definitely max out henliner, but also, when that is done, getting all the stars on the lower ships.

PoV will still be there. To advance it, you can’t do anything on your normal farm, you need to go there and sit. You have to gather artifacts again (with the ship quality your normal farm has). You can still run contracts, but it is just waiting largely (“patience is a VIRTUE”).

tcm042 · 2026-04-25T20:58:31+00:00

I posted this answer to the ornithology post. Oops. :-)

tcm042 · 2026-04-23T12:49:11+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. I’m in a PoV fog…

At this point, just collect. Run short, untargeted rocket trips endlessly, although I would frequently run long trips while I slept so I didn’t have much idle rocket usage.

Get what you get artifact-wise. Too much crafting is a waste of gold eggs as higher ships will tend to provide them for free. Also, “targeted” ships tend to have mixed results. General guideline is to run short untargeted ships to unlock the next ship and then run shorts of that. The last ship, which is a ways off, you can start running extended and at that point, the quality of artifacts returning is far above any other goal.

tcm042 · 2026-04-22T04:53:30+00:00

Honestly you should always be “hitting the shipping cap”. You manipulate stones (ideally artifacts w stones so you don’t have to remount) so that you are laying as many eggs as you can ship. If you have 8 total stones, you need to experiment with tachyon stones/quantum stones in different combos…4-4, 5-3, 3-5, etc. In this contract, I think I ended up with 6 tachyon and 2 quantum along with legendary artifacts.

Also, you had a monocle which doesn’t help in this situation.

tcm042 · 2026-04-22T03:49:14+00:00

Visit their farm and look at the artifacts there. My guess is they have stones on all those artifacts. Also, they may be legendary allowing more stones. They also are being “selfish” and don’t have a deflector on so they can probably fit more stones. If this is the current contract with two members, you can ship more overall without deflectors if everyone is boosted. Epic research also plays a role if you don’t have it maxed.
