Elite Dangerous help request
@nire@witches.town Yeah that's the first thing I tried since that's where I remember DLC being listed in steam but uhh
Thank you very much for helping me out with this
Elite Dangerous help request
@nire@witches.town Yeah um when I go to the DLC page, https://awoo.space/media/Y0s7oyFp-RnH0PUQ7-Y
Elite Dangerous help request
@nire@witches.town Nope, nothing re: horizons in the list, just the base game, solo play, arena, etc.

@nire@witches.town (I have the game closed at this moment)
Elite Dangerous help request
@nire@witches.town Ekuru B 1, trying to land a Lounge Holdings.
I'm not seeing any indication i have Horizons installed. No launch option given.
Elite Dangerous help request
@nire@witches.town Yeah, through Steam. Bought the game on sale like a month ago.

@nire@witches.town if I just accepted a mission that needs a $30 DLC with no warning that I couldn't complete it in the stock game, I'm gonna be pretty unhappy :(
Elite Dangerous help request
@nire@witches.town No? Internet says all ships come with a planetary approach suite by default now? Or is that an implicit "default with Horizons"?
I really really want to be a fan of this game but bullshit like this is just so frustrating.
This game has some serious UX issues, mostly relating to navigation :/
Elite Dangerous help request
So I got a mission to drop some goods at a surface base and I cannot figure out how to do so, and haven't been able to find a guide.
I can open the planetary map and see the base, and select it, but my HUD only ever shows a target centered on the planet and displays the whole planet as the target.
@tcql@octodon.social PLEASE LINK
@masklayer this looks a bit lewd tbh.
Hey folks please read people's bios before sending follow requests.
Also I can't connect to the server even though the launcher says server status is okay :(
I kinda like to imagine that custom exhaust colors are the Elite Dangerous equivalent of truck nutz.
@noelle Inevitable casual transphobia? :(

When you see "Ye Olde...", for example, that was never meant to be read with a Y sound; the Y is a placeholder for the extinct thorn, and should be read "th".

Here's a fun typography fact for you: Old English and Middle English had a single character for the "th" sound, called thorn. It looked like Þ in the capital; the lowercase is þ.
(If you crossed the upper bar, like so: Ꝥ ꝥ , it was shorthand for "that". "I like ꝥ kitten.")
Thorn largely died out when printing presses were imported to England. Because the typefaces were from Germany or Italy, they didn't have thorn. So they replaced it with a letter ꝥ rarely occurred in the same place þ did: Y.
@Sangria squish snek!
