1. Cartography Market - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Edited by: Tomogara on 21/03/2009 23:27:49 Originally by: Kylar Renpurs Either they aren't like normal sites, or their timer is huge. My experience with K-space exploration is that when you come back the next day after DT they'll be g...

2. How long till exploration will be completely valueless!? - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Mikal Drey totally pointless the sites were ALWAYS within 4au of a static object. Which is why you DID need the midwarp bookmarks, because in many systems, planets are closer than 4AU from each other. Dropping a probe...

3. ladar radar magnetometric and unknown (exploration help) - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
1. Grav = asteroid Radar = hacking Magnetometric = arcsal Ladar = gas cloud Unknown = combat or wormhole 2. Don't go way too tight on your pyramids at first. Keep them pretty well spaced apart -- I usually space the probes so that each is jus...

4. I was undocking and got this mesage - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
My favorite session change bug was when I fleeted just as I was undocking, then warped to a very near stargate and tried to jump. It gave me the error you get when you try to swap ships just after swapping, the "you're not fully aboard" or whatev...

5. The Impossible Scan - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Murasaki Ryujin However it IS possible to get warpable sites using a planar formation (I set mine so that the arrows point directly at the sig, no other probes, but that's just a mater of style). These tend to be the easier...

6. The Impossible Scan - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Edited by: Tomogara on 19/03/2009 16:25:29 A square is not a good choice for probe layout, because if you're even the slightest bit away from a perfect square, or the true result is even the tiniest bit away from the center, you get an angular...

7. Can 6 probes get better resoult then 4 - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Minaruars I stand corrected you are right, Sitting at work makes you forgetful, I think you're right, but only in a rare case. If you have three probes that are coplanar with the site, I believe the dev blog says that yo...

8. How long till exploration will be completely valueless!? - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
I dunno, I don't really think there's much difference at the higher end sites. They added a lot of very easy sites to scan (most wormholes are pretty pathetically easy). But the older types of sites still retain their difficulty spectrum, and the...

9. Can 6 probes get better resoult then 4 - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Ralitge boyter So that would be a yes then, it is like saying buying more lotery tickets does not give you extra chance of wining the jackpot... Assuming that the rumor (only 4 probes count) is true deploying 8 probes gives ...

10. Impossible, Unscannable Signatures - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Friedrick Psitalon Set 4 probes in a square, 6 in a cube, 8 in a sphere, create a vicious ring and a top/bottom None of those are good probe positions. 4 probes in a regular tetrahedron (a pyramid) is the only optimal c...

11. Novelty 's worn off.. exploration just isn't as enjoyable.. - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Tornim I'm not saying the old way of scanning was perfect, but it was more like "exploration". If you knew a site was in a system, you wouldn't be guaranteed to find it. Yes, but you also wouldn't be guaranteed to NOT...

12. *** Exploration FAQ *** - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Echo Vector That is fine until you are off on the Z axis. Use 6 probes ftw. Don't be like Khan. Think in 3 dimensions. The best way is to use four probes in 3 dimensions -- making a four-pointed pyramid (tetrahedro...

13. probing system - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Takatii Okay, maybe one of you folks can help me out. Is it possible to get a 100% signal strength hit on a wormhole with a single probe, and STILL not be able to get a pinpoint to warp to? I had this happen to me the first ...

14. probing system - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
OK, here's why it's bad: The probes are much too close together. There's no point to scanning with more than four probes (it just chooses best four) and with a signal strength that low, you do NOT want the probes close. A 9% hit, even on 0.25 AU ...

15. Not the usual probing issue: - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]

16. Not the usual probing issue: - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Your probes are just poorly placed. 1. You never need more than 4 probes; it just takes your best 4. 2. You want to make sure that every angle formed by each pair of probes and the site (that is, the angle between Probe A - Target - Probe B) is ...

17. Disappearing exploration sites - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Edited by: Tomogara on 13/03/2009 11:58:11 Originally by: Krishan13 When having trouble, two things help: increase probe strength (Covops, Sisters of Eve launcher/probes, and/or skills) and use MORE probes. Six probes (box of four in t...

18. Am I being a "Wormhole Noob" - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
This happens when you have 100% strength but not 0% deviation, try moving your probes a little bit (or going to 0.25 AU if you haven't already). The ideal probe position is four probes in a tetrahedron (four-pointed pyramid) around the site. I th...

19. Are Cov-ops still a necessity for scanning sites? - in Missions & Complexes [original thread]
Originally by: Farouq Rizer Is the extra time that is saved from a Cov-op ship worth switching back to a combat ship when a site is found? Or is it more time saving to just strap a probe launcher on a combat ship? Covops now give stre...

20. Applying real world physics to EVE. (CCP, hire an astrophysicist) - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
And then there's asteroid fields. EVE's fields are way too dense, they would collapse under their own gravity. Our solar system's asteroid belt has about 18,000 km on average between each asteroid and its nearest neighbor.
