To quote the Wiki, 'Trumbles are best served hot'.

To quote the Wiki, 'Trumbles are best served hot'.

I was searching in the Wiki for the recipe to cook it but cannot find it. Please enlighten me.

No, we won't make it that easy, will we?

Giving out this information would be considered a serious spoiler by many of us.

So it's up to yourself. Ask yourself just one question and let your imagination flow: What could probably be the hottest accessible place in any solar system?

One very last hint: Have you heard of the much coveted piece of equipment called the "Heat Shield"?

Thanks. I think I have it. I am going to eat it when I am hungry.

Size also matters I discovered. Sometimes the fuel injection of the smaller cobra III is hotter than the big one of an anaconda.

Best way to get rid of them is to sell them to collectors.
I hear there is a hermit in galaxy 8 at Arexexe who's bonkers for them.

The most traditional method employed against trumbles remains the ejection pod though.



Disclaimer: this is a statement of fact, not an advised method of erridication.

Unfortunately this is not quite the case. One of the trumbles will always be with you, even if you use the pod. You are just buying time by using it.

BBQ for teh win

Well, Arexack said "the most traditional method", not "the most successfull". And I think what he said is absolutely correct.

Read carefully!

Should've read the disclaimer...speaking of which: this was aimed at the latter statement (ejecting), not the former (hermit in gal 8 ) which is just a rumour.


In oolite the only drawback of owning to many trumbles is that they occlude your viewscreen and scanner, annoyingly switching to another viewscreen does not help as only the data feed is swapped, you are still peering at the same terminal.
In other elites, the trumbes had a nastier side-effect: they would fill your cargohold!
(a lack in oolite which I intend to eventually fix with 'life of a trumble-salesman.oxp' etc)

WOoooh..........occlude huh

oc·clude /əˈklud/ –verb (used with object)

1. to close, shut, or stop up (a passage, opening, etc.).

Ok I'm off to occlude the missus

No it's an Italian proposition

Kind of an alternative 'Italian Job' then.....

Finally, I fried the trumble. It does not taste nice and costly (it takes 1,500 credit and three attempts to cook it without I myself being fried.). Thanks for the tips guys.
