So yea... that was fun, I know I haven't had much to say, but when you spend most of the day working on repairs and the remaining free time after to prepare resources for the next step outside for a fix. Its pretty time consuming. However, after repairs planet side t the cooling system that seemed like they had fixed any issues I was having with the system allocations was fixed. And then It came back, but instead of a nice squishy planet to stand on, I'm floating around hoping that I have enough parts and supplies on me to be able to make these fixes work long enough to get me back planet side to find the mandatory resources I lack to repair the conduits for power allocation. Running in low power mode in order to reserve the power to lower levels to prevent conduit blockage. Today will be the second EVA to get the capacitor reconnected. The attachment locks are what is broken that I might have trouble finding a suitable replacement for. Without them the connection wont maintain contact and loses flow causing surges and drops which are most likely how the locking mechanisms broke free in the first place. What starts as a faulty loose connection has turned into a catastrophic life threatening event. Ill need to get this ship into sea faring condition today in order to make it out of this system with enough fuel and oxygen to get to the next system where I hope to find a planet with the minerals for synthetic polymer particles. they'll last, not as sturdy as an official star port repair of the bulkheads, and way less durable than metal alloys but will most likely get the job done. If you don't hear from me again, I guess you'll know how it went.

So after deciding to sleep it off for a night, I wanted to see in the morning if any commanders were aware of the missed checkpoint that I had not hit. They recommended that I continue on and update them on my progress and if there are any problems that arise out of this situation. Updates to follow.

So I've decided to visit Beagle Point. I haven't ever been there, but I've been out in that direction. This should be exciting and fun... that is until I realize that the people I wanted to undertake this expedition have created checkpoint stop in's along the way. Which is fine I can divert course and meet them at the first checkpoint, which is... in the bubble. Oh dear. no, no, no, nonono. Pinging coms to see if there are any other cmdrs in the area who know if I will need to go all the way home before truly starting. Or if I may continue on as I am to the next checkpoint meetup location.
