Galaxy 3 - Honey Spot
I'm not sure if this is pure coincidence or not but I must have found the perfect honey spot in Galaxy 3.
I hopped over there in my Mosquito Trader looking for a little change of scenery...and found this:
Rich Industrial Corporate State - Lezaer - TL 14
Poor Agricultural Multi Govt. - Esmaonbe - TL 4
Nothing strange about that I hear you say....what is wrong with this pilot
The thing is they are so close together that the Hyperspace uses zero fuel to travel between them...so it would seem I can trade to my hearts content and never use any fuel.....
Gotta love this

Re: Galaxy 3 - Honey Spot
Yes that's one of the ones I had to move apart for the maps because they are practically right on top of each other. There are a lot of systems like that floating around.Hemlock wrote:I'm not sure if this is pure coincidence or not but I must have found the perfect honey spot in Galaxy 3.

Re: Galaxy 3 - Honey Spot
I already knew about it and am already there. And there's an Anarchy system within a few light years too (for riskier endeavors).Hemlock wrote:I'm not sure if this is pure coincidence or not but I must have found the perfect honey spot in Galaxy 3.

additionally -- to the East -- there are 2 other trading pairs for when stocks run low on Esmaonbe; or you can visit the 3 industrials 1st to fill up with computers/narcotics/woteva then return to Esmaonbe filling up with furs (as you unload the other stuff) and Ho! for Lezaer & the big pay-off. This is good in a Boa Class Cruiser. It would be even better if it held 250 tons and did .875c (or something).

If you edit the appropriate plist it can... (just be careful not to crash into things when the Torus drive cuts out... it takes a while to slow down from that speed!)Zbond-Zbond wrote:It would be even better if it held 250 tons and did .875c (or something).

I want to buy one.
And it ought to be rare so that I have to run around all over the place to get it. In that way these honey-spots are discovered. There is another one somewhere -- arranged in a little circle with suitable trading partners available and excellent night-life. I suppose I'd better check where it is..
EDIT it is near the Xeer Free Trade Zone (I think)

kirin cv does a good cargo capacity with a slightly faster turn of speed. But then it is as big as a house.Zbond-Zbond wrote:additionally -- to the East -- there are 2 other trading pairs for when stocks run low on Esmaonbe; or you can visit the 3 industrials 1st to fill up with computers/narcotics/woteva then return to Esmaonbe filling up with furs (as you unload the other stuff) and Ho! for Lezaer & the big pay-off.

174x355x42.7
In fact if you flew 3 anacondas in close triangular formation below a kirin you wouldn't see them. They are a little thicker however.
Still, can't argue with the rear twin convergent tail-gater haters and the 400 ton cargo capacity.

downloading kirin.zip now - thanks for recommendation.
Sweet Spot ERROR
The circular trading route I mentioned earlier is wrong. It is the nearby group comprising
Labeinla (whole group visible here)
Enqurale
Becedibi
Lavele
Quraa
Tilala
Orermala
Edrilain
Raondile
A nice sprinkling of FreeTradeZones for your precious metals and piracy opportunities, and detour is even available to Qudior & Reesquen if prices fall off.
