Underhook Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I cant be the only one who is having trouble with calibration. devblog 101 does not explain how to calibrate. Not only that but the hotspots looked completely different to those on db101 and the 3 cone's I deployed did not show anything even though the line tool revealed a hot spot within the cones arc. Awesome. So, since NQ seems unwilling to explain how calibration works (unless I missed it) I thought maybe people could post their experiences here for the benefit of all. Oh yeah apparently some ore pops up after calibration. I never found it. I didnt know that apparently a message pops up after calibration telling you the location of the ore. I never noticed the message and never got the ore. So, if your new watch out for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sHuRuLuNi Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I also used the cone a few times and found it to be useless ... then I only used the "area" tool, with middle mouse button to make it larger or smaller, then I found the brightest spot of ore - which then if you hover over it, shows up to 100% target on the left side bar. I then placed the final point on that spot. And the ore spawned where i placed the point. It also shows the Destination marker on that spot. I too just blindly "played" with it a bit, because like you, the db101 wasn't any help really. Underhook 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After you set the final position , the number of leters is shown on the left hand side of the dialog and above it is a button to set the current destination (waypoint) to the location of the surface ore. After pressing that it is easy to find the surfaceore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sHuRuLuNi Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I also noticed that somehow the calibration charge talents aren't doing much? I have them both (normal and improved) at lvl 5 which should reduce the charge regeneration for at least 2 hours, so instead of it needing 4 hours as it says for regeneration, it should only need 2 ... but I just calibrated one miner and it says the next charge will be generated in 3 hours and 59 minutes ....

Talonclaw Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 There is a video guide but it's in French and the subtitles are only in French. Thank you to the champion that finally does one in English. why doesn't youtube scan uploads to provide subtitles in whichever language u need. Course it only takes the uploader 2 seconds to add them but hey. The vid gives you a semblance of an idea but as you can imagine, from such a non intuitive system, context is missing without speech or text.

miaminice Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 I use the area scan until i found my 100% spot. After calibrations the games shows the complete map - look at it is every time nearly the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard without skills is something around 6 hours .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will probably make a video on this soon. So, the cone tool does not make any hotspot light up on the map (I thought anything in the cones arc would light up). The cone will simply point towards the hot spot location, so its useful to put one in the middle initially as the direction of the cone will indicate which 3rd of the hex the hot spot is in.

Talonclaw Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 upon request, he's now added ENglish subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
