I wonder if there's a way to mod them in?...

I think I'm going to give Elite Dangerous another go.

The last time I tried it I thought it was pretty sterile and lacking in personality, but I do like the idea of just Space Trucking some cargo from point A to point B. I just wish the cargo came with cool little pictures of what it is, a la Space Merchant or Privateer (or Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, which is effectively Privateer again).

It makes a real difference to the feel. When I last tried ED I didn't like how the cargos were all nothing more than text. We'll see how I feel this time around.

Going to do some light space trucking in Elite Dangerous with Radio Sidewinder as my trusty companion.

Always love having them as the unofficial ingame radio with adverts themed by Elite but also having news sections based on in-game events and GalNet.

Module config just dropped on the Kestrel Mk2 (new Elite Dangerous) ship and uh.

Holy shit.

From the Buur Pit:

> 4 Utility Slots
>
> Hard Points:
> 3 Large Hardpoints
> 2 Small Hardpoints

> Core Internals:
> Size 5 Powerplant
> Size 5 Thrusters
> Size 4 FSD
> Size 1 Life support
> Size 5 Power distributor
> Size 2 Sensors
> Size 4 Fuel Tank
>
> Optional Internals:
> 1 x Size 1
> 3 x Size 2
> 1 x Size 3
> 2 x Size 4 (One of these is a military slot)
> 1 x Size 5

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware the current plan was to... *Checks notes* Basically mount a series of tank cannons on an F-22. Considering its nearest peer is the Vulture, which has two larges, and a size four powerplant w/ a size five distro, and more than a few issues trying to stay fully operational with these during combat?

Flying one of these is going to be a very interesting pip dance, at the very least. For how rapidly the Vulture gets toasty firing its weaponry... yeesh.

Just got back into playing Elite Dangerous for the first time in 2.5 years! Took me most of the evening to remember how everything is supposed to work 😄 #EliteDangeous #gaming

Spent the evening watching streams, prepping for a charity stream event I was invited to next week, and doing a little prep for an #EliteDangeous stream tomorrow night.

I say "planning" since there's a non-zero chance I'll need to respond to a work emergency at the most inconvenient time. :/
