You know when the gravity is high enough for the mats to not scatter like that, you can just stop over them with your cargo scoop open and select them each in your contacts panel. They all go in right as you click their contact. It's why I go to high gravity planets for this kind of mat grinding.

[@D3v15H]

You don't! The moment you get out of super cruise your head will compress your spine breaking most of the cords instantly rendering you paralysed, your lungs will collapse, most of your bones will break, some of your blood vessels will pop but none of that even matters since you will not even be able to feel any of this pain since you pass out from your brain liquefying itself. Not to mention that the surface temperature is about 3.7 KiloKelvin which will vaporise this anaconda in seconds before it will even have a chance to land in a molten rock ocean that this planet really would have been like. If pilot federation had any mercy they would put a large exclusion zone or require a suicide permit to land there.

@@slinkerdeer I am not quite sure what kind of 'artificial limitations on rotating your ship sideways' you are talking about. The design makes perfect sense. To rotate the ship using thrusters, you need thrusters. Why would you put many thursters to sides of your ship when you can just put far more thrusters to bottom and top of the ship, so you can quickly roll and then use far more power to quickly rotate. Having equal thrust in every direction would be the most pepega space ship design you could ever make.

I wonder there's some gravity suppressor going on in the SRV and the ship, as the guy alone would weigh around 3600kg (more than a fully loaded SUV) on the surface, and the two ton SRV (at 1G) would weight roughly 90 tons. So to make those 2 meter jumps would need roughly 1,8 million Newtons of thrust to make. That's a lot of thrust.

This would happen as the planet’s orbit gradually decays, in turn falling closer and closer to its parent star. Such planets have been discovered in real life via spectral analysis.

The 'surface' (photosphere) gravity on the sun is 28G.

[@SKid_Athor]

I've been doing extensive high-G planet testing. So just three things. At first, when being in the glide there is no G-force effect. So you can aim at your target area no matter of the angle unless its out of red zone - so as usual for all planets. When you pop out of the glide, level the ship to zero degress, as shown here. Dont.use any thrusters. Just let the ship do it for you. Second: Dont release your landing gear too early, just directly before touch-down. Why? Your thrusters have only 50% power. So any emergency measure (pulling up + full thrust forwards) has less power. And the third: These mechanics are all the way the same above 10 G. There is no difference landing on a 10G planet or 45G. FDev has it cut off. I did it with a type9 with weekest stock engines. I made around 30 landings for testing. And how to escape from those planets? Very easy: go up with your vertical thrusters.... pull in the landing gear while going up. It takes time..... just wait.... above 2km over ground... pitch up the nose and give 100% thrust forward only.... hit the SC-button and thats it. Remember: 10g is the real maximum. Everything above behaves the same! And for new players: getting down on high g means dont use your vertical thrusters downwards, use going forwards and backwards in an angle. Cheers!

Better Srv's designed to mine would be nice, srv's for different purposes or any level of customization would be better than the limited two we got, or the ability to customize them in any fashion. I know they are supposed to be repurchasable disposables so that doesnt make 100% sense for them to be repurchased with customizations at any port, but neither does buying a replacement ship with insurance and it having your custom tuning and loadout from engineers either. Planet side air craft that actually travel in normal space within the atmosphere or low orbit allowing you travel between surface settlements without needing to fire a frameshift drive straight 90 degrees up, achieve orbit, then re enter via gliding without fucking it up leaving you 90km above ground traveling only 220m a second spamming the boost function constantly... so like some kind of jet or vtol or something would be cool... literally anything more to deployable vehicles would be nice since all ships still interact with planetary landings and travel in the same manner, and none of which have any form of sensor/targeting systems useful for attacking settlements beyond attacking the aa turrets, which only attack your ship anyways. It's understandable to a degree that your ship might lack targeting capability for objects as small and cold as ground turrets or people, but when I fire an explosive autocannon or railgun near them, I would atleast expect any amount of aoe damage, or for the damage to be atleast comperable to small arms fire. Even a sidewinder with basic pulse lasers should out perform or atleast equal the basic level 1 laser assaut rifle in shield damage. It would also be nice if settlements had some form of hanger or just a single ship parked on a pad to attempt to chase you down in the atmosphere after attacking them.

looked like any other planet landing except for the ship and pilot instantly being crushed to a pulp on landing but the Buggy can do jumps in 45g's'

[@redmoon4425]

Brakes, people have already calculated how much real gravity is there. She is there 2.43g, not 45g

[@Dushess]

45G? is not that already a brown dwarf pure by resulting gravity?

[@Azurie-e9s]

according to other comments this planet is 317 or so earth masses so about the same to jupiter... a brown dwarf should be at least in the 1000s of earth masses so 2000 eart mass at least, jupiter is a gas giant, way far off from ever becoming a brown dwarf and so is this planet... whats BS about this is it should be a gas giant with this jupiter mass, no rocky worlds exist like this

[@n.jurenic]

45g planet would be as flat as a pancake, and shouldn't be survivable for a human. But hey it's an awesome game!

[@mikicerise6250]

You wouldn't glide in space either.

[@DmytroBogdan]

With that gravity it's s like permanent flight assist off 😲

[@GeorgeTsiros]

That the ship can hover means that its thrusters _should_ be able to launch it vertically at 44g on a 1g planet. But, alas, this game is inconsistent af.

[@AlexPebodyGM]

How about way out? )) 45g

[@toodoo44]

It's not 45. I think it's 4.5

[@immensumcaelo]

The planet's name is KOI 1701 1. -- 317 Earth masses with a radius of 16,869 km. (45.32G) AFAIK, it currently holds the record on gravity in ED. The number isn't wrong, likely limitations with the physics engine and they likely didn't anticipate anyone landing on the planet.

Tungsten Cube? Nah we have the Tungsten Planet 💀

[@moun10high]

Stay over those minerals and use the contacts list.

[@por1264]

a 45G planet shouldn't have mountains

[@redparrot]

Jupiter has about 2,5G. 45G should be really crazy, but somehow aren't

[@robertbishop9576]

that looks like a parody to Star Citizen

[@Gunga45000]

Gonna go here later

[@borisbibaletsplay]

Did i hear Vegeta laughing? 😅

[@myrchantkobold8268]

In reality as you crash into the planet at terminal velocity you would become a soup.

[@krashd]

What else can you tell us about the 33rd century and the tech we will have then?

[@myrchantkobold8268]

@@krashd Even if the ship was fine, Your brain would decelerate into your skull and once again, become soup.
