Elite Dangerous on Lemmy
On this first day without Reddit, I found myself missing the community from /r/elitedangerous more than any other. Please feel free to make yourselves at home here and we will work on creating a space where all commanders can post, comment, and engage on the topic of E:D.

EDIT (2023-06-29): We're going to be copying some important posts over from the Reddit community over the next few days for archiving and informational purposes. If you would like one that seems to have been missed, please feel free to post it here yourself or ask one of us to do so. If the post has been misattributed, please let us know so we can correct it.
At the moment, using lemmy feels a bit like docking at one of those outposts somewhere between Colonia and the bubble. There's not much here yet, but you know its going to grow.

Hi, I recently built myself a Type 10 to sit in a low RES and hunt bounties without me. The [current build](https://edsy.org/s/vKem1Md) was already destroyed twice, one time I respawned on the closest station and one time I spawned in a detention facility. Not entirely sure what happened either time, but whenever I was watching it, it seemed to do just fine with 4 pips to shields. One thing I should probably mention is that I bring collector limpets to scoop up the manufactured mats and I have it set up so that one is launched every 5 minutes or so. That of course leads to stolen cargo and stolen cargo in combination with enemy hatchbreakers leads to fines for jettisoning stolen cargo. I'm not entirely sure, but I think one of my deaths can be explained by the fact that fines eventually turn into bounties. Is there a way to place my point defenses so that they properly protect against hatchbreakers or another way be safe? Or do I need to stop using limpets when I'm not there and go back to dav's hope for manufactured mats?
