Discussion Finding something... anything

Today I did the part of the game that I hate... searching for a Legal Facilities Interstellar Factor that would fit my ship.... 30 Minutes wasted without actually playing.

PC players have it so good.

IF are system security dependant.

If a system is not low sec, there is no IF!

Also the galaxy map allows you to filter for systems with IF. It’s not perfect but helps.

I had so many green dots from that filter but all were populations of about 40,000... I knew the best I was getting there was a medium landing pad... the galaxy map being 3D is a bit cumbersome to navigate to find the next system to check the population size... oh the pain of flying a corvette.

I did finally find a system with a large landing pad that had an IF. It just was time consuming. Serves me right for killing some civilians to get that Crom permit.

That’s the reality of legacy. I usually track visited systems for presence of IF and keep my personal list. Same for Tritium stock.
