Tour #4, Friday,: A night trip, this time mostly east and south of Alioth, with a turn over a quarter of the eggqautor. 🤪. Here is a romantic shot of NQ-Nicodemos setting up the egg at Sethioz's Hangar. (I kept V active again so you can see the names.)

Thats a nice idea. But I spend most of the time on the fore.mast so I have a good view and can take screenshots.

Great perspective. How did you do that? Did you fly your own ship with us?

"Group picture" while taking off from Hadron. NQ-Nicodemus at helms. The welll-behaved builders sit in their egg seats - while the pirate-minded adventurers stand at bow or mast while speeding at 5000 km/h back to the Institutes. Most players join in persona. But of course you can VR in, even when the eggship already is on its tour.

A small moment: NQ-Nyota admiring Hadron's Medical center - while in the chat some well-known names pat their backs. This is one of the reasons I love this game: There is so incredibly much to see and the community is full of talented, highly competive and at the same time cooperative nerds. 💕

The whole eggstatic crew disbarking at Hadron. (I jumped off from orbit to be ready to catch them all getting off the eggship.) I really recommend this tours. If you are new to the game, you will get an idea what is possible in this universe. If you have been busy for many months it is a good chance to rub shoulders with some well-known fellow noveans. And if you are a veteran it still is an opportunity to present what you bulit, speak a few words, or shamelessly plug your newest blueprints. 😇

Here is one of those gems you can find if you swarm aplace with two doozen pros: WWI style Hover tank at Arcturian Market. Once again I will only post a few sceenshots. You will have to take the tours to see it all. And it is a different very day.

Day 2: Once again more than two dozen players (all different from day 1 except 2). New Markland City. Everyone swarming to get some views. A surprisingly detal-rich cityscape. Look at the chat: If Ryan Pryde (Hadron) gives you a compliment, you know you are buildig well. Once again NQ-Nicodemus in center preparing to lay an egg, while NQ-Nyota is having a watchful eye in the sky on her herd.

At Lachenlaud's Golden Oak Industries. The group chat gets funnier by the minute. In the foreground you see NQ-Nicodemus landing to lay an egg: If your building gets chosen to be part of the tour, you get a gift. A 2m egg in front of your door. Nice idea.

"Group picture" at the famous Alioth Marina. Lighthouse to the left. (I won't post all destinations. Just enough to give you an impression - and a certain feeling you missed something. 😉 ) Chat full of word play how eggcelent, eggxtravagant and eggcentric the tour is. 🤪

First destination: Kylens' Unicorn Glue Co. First players jumping off. We soon found out that we have to jump fast, move in fast, move around fast, and get back on the eggship before it takes off. 30 people jetpacking and zigzagging at breakneck speeds to view as much as possible as fast as possible. 🚒

The eggship approching Mach 1. NQ-Nyota announcing our first destination while NQ-Nicodemus prepares for a barrel roll that made everyone lose their food and cheer at the same time. 🤢😁 As you can see we are so fast you can not see our avatars. They just turn protoplasmic ...

View from the bridge: First half of seats taken. By and by almost 30 players turned up. The spiky eggs are designed with seats inside. You can see our valiant pilot NQ-Nicodemus in the front. He found out about NQ-Nyotas supernatural abilities, too: When he took her seat (in the egg below me), she somehow managed to remove him telekinetically. See his Twitch stream, for the whole funny scene. If a genuine NQ maker is suprised what abilites their avatars have ... 😎

Some screenshots from the first tour. Here is the Eggship waiting for passengers, with the Arkship in the background. CrazyHenky was the first to arrive and motivate others to come. That left up in the air is NQ-Nyota, our charming tour guide. She boldly showed us that NQs can not only fly, but also have other supernatural abilities ... (see next)

The first tour was really intersting and fun at the same time. What a nice community. I made several new friends. Thank you.

Oh yes. Wheels, tires, pipes ... so many technological forms use a torus, Or at least could use.

By SP you mean skill points? Actually; I also have been thinking, that it might be mutually beneficial for NQ and new players if they could pay a little more to somehow catch up a little bit with the veterans.

Hello MichaelEx, I siarted playing 5 weeks ago and feel the same. I am totally hooked. Where on Haven did you start? What are your first goals? Getting a spaceship and flying to Alioth? Building a mining base?

That's nice. I just started working on a robot - when I discovered that two urinals combined instantly look like R2D2. 😅

I tried this several times and it works in at least 40% of the calibrations. Enough for a real time safe. Thanx.

I like how you manage to make fun of yourself AND rub salt in your player's wounds at the same time. That after all is what good satire is about. 😁

That actually was rather funny, meta, and subtle. 😁

If even you veterans are impressed, then I as a rookie really are thankful for that relevation, RugesV.

Thanks, Leniver. For me as a rookie this is very helpful. One of my two favourite adresses to go to if I need ideas or help what colors and materials to choose. I especially like how you present every honeycomb as a plain surface AND as a ball - since so mayn of them look and behave differently in different light and movement.
