How does the list of resources you can survey for get generated ? Can you update it ?


When I first got SWG I created identical Artisan characters on 2 different servers, but even though they are the same race, same profession startingin the same city on the same planet theyhave completely different resource lists in their survey devices. Theone that I play now has no trouble finding good supplies of the resourceson his list but he has no Reactive minerals (energy sources) available to survey for, but the character on the other server has a lot of trouble finding sources of the resources on his lists but he has Reactive minerals available to survey for.


The only thing I can figure is that somehow the character on the other servermay be bugged and have a resource list meant for another planet, but I havent proven this theory because I have not traveled to another planet with either character yet. Is this how it works, Refreshes when you change planets?

The resource lists show everything available for mining on a particular planet. Each server has different resources available at different times. Each planet has diferent resources available which wou'll see when you travel and bring up your survey tool you'll see a new new list for each planet. The planets can share some resources and so your list may be partially new with some resources existing on several planets at the same time.

Do the Named resources ever repeat ? Like will "Kini" steel ever respawn ? I'm asking because I can't remember ever seeing the same name come back, after the resource shifted out.


Thanks

I believe each named spawn is unique and will never repeat.

As far as I've seen, the particular name and stats of a resource don't repeat. I don't suppose there's anything really preventing it (resources are retained in the database after despawning to handle existing stacks), but depending on how large the "name space" is (how many unique names are possible with the game's random generation system) SWG might run for 10 years before it gets used up.


I'm not sure if a Dev has made a post regarding repeats one way or the other, but I'm pretty sure there haven't been any repeats in the 10 months the game's been running.

When making swoops do I need to use High SR none furros AND Furros metals or do I need one to be High SR. I cant seem to find any good Non furros metals.

They both need to be high SR. As for non-ferrous, keep an eye on the conductive borcarbitic copper (a JTL resource). There isn't a cap on the SR on that, so you can get up to 1000 with it (963 is the best I have seen so far on Sunrunner).



Please drop any auction winnings at my vendor on Corellia. It is Abilof Weapons at -1803 2347 just east of the Kor Vella starport or the Fort Qui shuttleport.
