Thanks for the tip on the Indium drive. I can now delete the other two safely.


Yeah, I mean I enjoyed the time I've spent on planet surfaces. I'm over 60 hours into my save and I've visited exactly 3 systems and warped only 4 times. But like I said, I found so many drop pods manufacturing facilities, transmission towers, observatories, monoliths, ruins, hundreds of damaged machinery, that I got a very nice jump start on things.

25 exosuit slots, 14 high capacity cargo slots, 13 technology slots, makes it much easier to carry around the essential elements with me, so I always have on hand a large supply of magnetised ferrite, condensed carbon, sodium nitrate, oxygen, uranium, regular carbon, cobalt, ionized cobalt, chromatic metal, copper, etc.

But, while I enjoyed the time, it's also draining. One entire real week spent on that single planet's surface (the one with the 154 waypoints), every time I'd fly towards something and sit there scanning the surface, it'd take an hour to get to that something because I'd discover 50 buildings along the way, stopping at each one.

Now, other than drop pods, abandoned buildings, manufacturing facilities, observatories, transmission towers, crashed freighters, monoliths, ruins, outposts and trading posts, I just keep flying when I'm on planet. Get things done faster and I can move on.
