Sol to Colonia in 1h 38m 11s (new time record)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2019
- Here's my first record-breaking trip from Sol to Colonia in Elite Dangerous. To achieve this time, I wrote a custom route-plotter (based on the A* search algorithm) that computes an optimal route from EDSM star charts, taking into account jump range increases due to fuel consumption, and fast refueling opportunities from main sequence stars co-located with neutron stars. The result is a 76-hop path, which is about 27% shorter than those computed by non-optimal heuristic tools, and about 11% shorter than the best manually plotted routes.
Update: Using a refinement of the algorithm, I subsequently broke the 1.5hr barrier: • Sol to Colonia in unde...
"Babe come over."
"I can't I'm in Sol"
"My parents aren't home"
I am terrified even entering the neutron star cones, you just casually open the map lol
I'm glad it looks casual. I was terrified every time I did that. :)
You can also select a new location as your FSD is charging. So you select the next location to the one you're currently charging to jump to. It is a tiny bit slower but it means you don't have to go YOLO in a cone.
They are not scary just jump in trust me
You get used to it.
@@Headcrabman9999 sort of
Simply amazing! Great job. I can imagine how much work in preparing, training and also the great job on the route plotting. Your NS-route skills are perfect :-)
I rate the speed of entering those cones, love it.
6 am grind yeet
I tried this today, it was my first ever marathon (I call the sol-colonia race the "marathon"), and i screwed up in 3 placed and finished in 2h15m. I could get this to 2h, but I'm really impressed by your performance. What really really wows me is that you keep landing at neutron-scoopable binaries to refuel! how the hell did you plan that??? and btw, the idea of scooping at binaries is genius. o7 cmdr.
I had no idea this was possible! I've been playing this game for 2 years and there is still so much to learn. Loving this game!
Unfortunately I started this voyage on my xbox one and am too invested to start again with a PC account to take advantage of the quick shortcuts CMDR Steve Falken can perform. Nevertheless it is still jaw dropping to see you ride a neutron jet and switch to your navigation pane and then perform a 300+ ly jump, WOW! Well done sir!
Costas Gardias You don’t have to start again I’m pretty sure, link your frontier account to ED PC Version.
You can do a one time account transfer I believe, so that’s always an option
@@skydronemc9942 yea but it wipes it from console so there's a trade off
You get your credits
My first trip to Colonia was something I'll never forget, took me something like 2 weeks! I didn't rush to Colonia, had a Krait Phantom rigged up with some where around 52 LY jump range and decided I wanted to get out and explore way out into the black. I'd never really gone a long trip like that before, so I just plotted a course straight to Colonia, fastest route using the Neutron Highway. I was probably a little under a quarter of the way there when I just got really bored of the constant jumping. So I decided to change it up a bit, probably had like 500 course changes visiting black holes I could find in the galaxy map, Wolf Ray-et stars, small nebula's, I even discovered a number of ELW's. Climbed some really tall mountains in my SRV, this was before the days of Odyssey of course. But I actually enjoyed charting new places, where no one has gone before. I slowly made my way to Colonia on my zig zagged route with tons of Exploration data to turn in. But before I did that I thought to myself, I made it this far, maybe I can go further? Just about around this time they finally put that station at the Galactic Centre, near Sag A*. So I plotted a rout there, and zig zagged my way there again, collecting tons and tons of data from strange new worlds, also discovering a few new anomalies along the way. I finally made it all the way there, and decided to hang on to all my Cartography data again. And truthfully it was getting some what tiresome, since almost everything is the same, when it comes to a lot of the systems if they even have anything at all. I debated with myself for a while whether or not I should head back to the bubble, or press on and travel the expanse all the way to Beagle Point. Sure enough I did, just so I could say I was there and back. that trip took a lot longer than I thought it would've at the time, probably cause I was playing it later at night. I remember I dozed off mid jump and woke up with my ship just flying into the corona of a star. Nearly shit myself haha. But I eventually made it there, and it really did feel special. Not everyone who plays Elite comes out here, and it was my first time ever actually looking out into complete blackness of the intergalactic void, it really is a strange feeling just flying out into blackness in supercruise. At this time I actually started watching the Star Trek: Voyager series, and it felt fitting considering I was flying out in the opposite end of the galaxy trying to get home to Earth. Eventually I decided it was time to leave and I plotted my course back. On my way back to the Centre for a pit stop to repair my ship, I got blocked by a mass of permit locked systems, and I had to plot my way around a huge expanse of stars that were just inaccessible for some reason which I thought was really odd, my imagination getting the better of me I thought it was Frontier planning something over there for Raxxla, or something like that. But I got around it, discovered a bunch more things. Finally made it back to the Centre, and I took a break for a little while. But when I came back, there was a community goal going on at the time, I forget what it was all about but it was asking for Commander's to deliver Cartography data, and seeing as I had about a whole months worth of it, I started my trek back to the bubble again. After a whole month of traveling across the Milky Way I finally docked with the station that was taking the data, and I collected some where around 900 million credits, just from Cartography data alone, and Mind you my former balance was some where around like 32 million? or something like that, and that boosted me into the top 5% AA of the community goal which was a first for me. But as I leave and I go to my home system, I jumped into a white dwarf system, and after using those and Neutron stars to speed my journey like before, I tried to get a boost from it. Bad choice... Literally one jump after I docked back in the bubble for the first time in a long time, a freakin white dwarf star destroys my ship, and my pride... I really underestimated that star, but lesson learned at least, don't mess with White Dwarfs, and if you do then be absolutely careful. But yeah! that was my story, I'll never forget it. It was a long road getting from there to here.
When I decided to travel to Colonia it was simply for the purpose of doing it. I left the bubble around August of 2023 and made my way up to Colonia. Once I made it, I decided to continue my sightseeing by heading to the galactic center and to the upper edge of the galaxy, where no stars existed. I took some cool screenshots while in an SRV with the compete milkyway in view. By the time I returned to the bubble it was nearly 7 months later. Before I left the bubble, I would consistently find other commanders hanging around in the local stations, but by the time I returned, 7 months later, I have yet to see anyone. It made me sad to think that in the time of my absence, the game just died. By the time I had returned home, I had achieved Elite explorer status, and subsequently visited Jameson Memorial station where I purchased myself a fresh new Anaconda (I previously had a Krait mk2 with a jump range of 53 lys). Now I'm fitting it with the gear to turn it into a jumpaconda with the hope of returning to the galactic center in the near future.
@@seanbedel7694You can still see people at high traffic areas (at least on PC). I still get ganked going to Jameson Memorial or Felicity Farseer. I sometimes see people while attacking the thargoid titans. Just the other day I saw at least 4 or 5 players at one of the guardian terminals.
Awesome story dude, I envy your patience. Maybe one day when I can find time I’ll get as far as possible over a weekend or something. But you’ll likely never catch me in the places you mentioned 😂
I read every word and enjoyed your story. o7 CMDR.
Absolutely awesome dude. You did all that without any shield... Wow!
Nicely done! And mind that Slot at Colonia--they say it's the same as any other slot, but I think it's a little smaller ;)
And here I felt cool for doing this in one day in a Phantom...
Phantom is ALWAYS cool
I didnt think this was possible. Wow!!! Incredible job!!
Nice! I like the way that within the first 30 sec your showing your build GJ ;)
Outstanding achievement o7 CMDR
This is peak traveling. o7 CMDR.
Not sure if you know this; but synthing can also be used for fuel retention as long as you don't vantage the range. So if one day get unlucky and say you combo up a couple brown dwarfs, synth and that should help give you the range to reach a fuel star. For those who didn't know; you're welcome.
Absolutely legendary job at the routeplanning part.
might want to be careful with those tactics commanders you never know when your anaconda decides to end your whole career overall great run o7
Thats a fast time to get to Colonia.. damn!!!! Well done!!
I jumped into Colonia today. Although not from sol, but from Shinrarta dezhra. And not to Colonia but Hephaestus. My time was 1 hour 58 minutes and 1 second. I just counted the entry into the system as a goal
Learning to play Elite is like studying for a PHD, the hardest game I've ever encountered. It was satisfying to learn but the grind afterwards drove me away from the game.
I try and loop the grind to keep it fresh. I went to the other side of the Galaxy and back recently and it’s put me off of exploration for a bit; but now I can go back to mining and equipment farming. It’s a beautiful game.
dis man is a beast
Never been to colonia. Might go now.
Muito bem comandante, realmente muito impressionante. o7
I'd suggest doing the official Buckyball A* challenge and see where you palce yourself on the leaderboard :)
Now imagine this is just to reach nearest system in hypercruise.
great job commander i recently discovered the joy of riding that blue light ;) is there a route planner purely for the neutron highway since eddb has gone ? o7 cmdr
Spansh neutron router
The ship that made the kessel run in less than 12 parsecs
England vs Spain..............and ....... I'm watching this!
How many more light years can you get extra out of supercharging the FSD through those stars ???...good job as well
Neutron stars give you a 4x boost to your normal FSD range
I did this just a couple weeks ago in about 2 1/2 hours and felt like a badass lol
16:01 roasted from the other siiiiiiiiiiiide ;D
I'm going to give the old Colonia speedrun another go with my new frame shift Drive. My old personal record was 1 hour 53 minutes and 35 seconds.
Steve Falken ? Do you have a son named Joshua waiting for you in colonia ?
If so, please teach him that "The only winning move is not to play" 😜
I Go with my Federal Corvette to Colonia with a 15ly jump Range 😂
Farthest I went was from Brestla to the Coalsack nebula.
Ah I wish I could see what exploration data was worth
Usually speedrunning to Colonial like that will net you between 20 and 35 million on average.
impressive!
i wonder ow fast we can go now with the new SCO frame shift drives
Insane.
holy shit i should invest in an anaconda jump build
That's great but you have to know where all neutron stars are located on trajectory when you set a course to Colonia and how do you succeed to jump 91 ly at once, how your Anaconda doesn't has any damages to scoop fuel so close of stars many important information i would like to know when I will be ready to go to Colonia
For finding neutron stars, you can plot routes from spansh neutron plotter. How ever it wont calculate the fuel consumption for jumps you make so you need to manually jump to a system that has a scoopable star. Actually, there is an advanced route plotter named "Galaxy plotter" (again by spansh) which does that for you but it is a little complex than neutron plotter due to requirement of ship build link from coriolis. If you are planning to travel to colonia, its not that hard to do. I made halfway there with my 22 ly combat cutter then boarded to a carrier nearby to ride me the rest of the way. It was a very tiring journey but it wasn't that hard. With a 72 ly jump range, you can make it there with only 100 jumps by neutron boosting. Only 2h journey.
it would be even faster nowadays with new fsd(sco) and guardian fsd boosters
didn't boost out the mail slot at the start? 0/10 worst run I've ever seen.
jk though man that was insane. you are a legend :)
With a Powerdistributor smaller then 5D (Engine fucused) you can not boost with an Anaconda
@@houinkyoma8233 yeah I know, I was making a joke lol. :) he absolutely crushed the run
I am preparing a Exploration trip to colonia using a Diamond Back Explorer. Stock maxed jump range gives me a usable gap crossing of 30 light-years a jump. Any advice for a noob like me before I blunder on this journey?
@Fannplush on hold for now. New AMD drivers aren't playing well with Elite.
I did make it 1900 light years in honking and scanning and first landing as i went along.
If i can get the driver deal sorted I'll be on my way again.
took my 400 jumps, this is insane
If you could give list of all neutron stars you used to reach Colonia so fast
If i didn't hate going to Colonia so much i might attempt to beat this record. I'm never going back to Colonia again.
why not
@@LipticZone because I prefer being in the bubble. I feel like I’m in a remote deserted place when I’m there. The action is in the bubble. That’s why I haven’t ventured into exploration because there not much to explore for the kind of exploration I’m looking for.
6 hours and already tryin to go. :D
it took me a week to go there
it took me 3 days to get there and guess what? i didnt bring nothing with me i went all the way out there for nothing.
I had no idea this could be done this quickly. I've been putting off doing it thinking I had to do it with my carrier. The amount of tritium I'd need was putting me right off the idea.
So let me ask, do you actually go inside the stars exclusion zone? Or just outside of it facing the jets exit?
Also, is the jump distance you get from the neutron star, relative to the jump distance of the ship you do it in?
If so, how much to transport a Cutter to Colonia from Jameson Memorial? Lol.
I did this trip bout a week ago. You just enter outside the excusion zone. The safest is to head directly for the jet at the ends. For newbies go slow and steady. Enter the jet and drop your speed to zero until your FSD is super charged then apply as much power as you can to escape. Its a bit scary but you somewhat get used to it. Its not as hard as it looks.
AND the distance you get from the supercharge IS related to how much jump range your ship has. So a Anaconda 69 ly will typically get more bang for their buck than say a 21 year light year python.
5-9 Mms/s for entering the cone works for me. This guy does it way too fast for me.
Crazy to think you can get to Colonia just about as fast as you can get to Hutton orbital!
Elite Dangerous is missing context to the travelling, like seeing the whole galaxy map and location, which star is where. They are all just random. Also all systems are like core systems, with same culture and order. Everyone is a privateer earning money
umm, i was one of the ones in 2015 to get to Sag A* in under 9 hrs, it was a stripped down annie and a big deal
this... all of this, i just so mind numbingly epically cool. 90min, say under 50sec per jump, 110 jumps?
fastest i got to was about 38sec/jump at best lol
but to Sag A* ... in less than 9 hrs
this is Colonia lol
Will you release the tool to us?
here i am taking 1 week (no in a rush) to get to Colonia with my conta with a 70ly and i see this guy doing it in a 1 and 38 min with his conda doing 83ly im so desapointed with my self 🤣
No rush is 1 month for me. Gotta see some of the neighborhoods also.
how the hell do you get so many lightyears in a jump
The jet cone puts the fsd in overdrive which can range in number but is usually around 300ly or 4x you normal jump range
I'm loose one month. 👏
my dbx is only 60ly with g4 engineering
With the new FSD’s, do you think this can be beaten?
I did Sag A. To Sol in 4 hours without FSD injections. I was pretty happy with it.
Is there a site that tracks these runs and times? I'm writing one now that links to cAPI to get exact times. I'm just curious if I'm wasting my time.
4:44 the way how you are just casually scooping fuel In speed of 1000/s and i can barely reach 200/s :D
7A fuel scoop on the Anaconda
Heftig
why did you never submit this run to src?
Me with my 3 days to get to colonia
What language did you code your custom route-plotter in?
How did you create the algorithm and can you share it? Or even purchase it?
it was just A* search but he had to set up the data using paired heaps, memory mapped files, and Intel vector math to calculate fast enough
does your FSD not take damage when entering the neuron star/white dwarf jet cones?
Yes it does. My fsd started malfunctioning at the 27:30 mark of the vid
Could you do some sort of 4 hour journey on a budget? And list down your route and build? Thanks.
People say the journeys take a few days and I don't really have that sort of time
I wonder if anyone actually sat through this entire feature length film.
For me the only thing worst than trying to get somewhere in ED as fast as possible, just numbingly making jump after jump, is watching a video about someone else doing it. But I had to show up and thumbs up this CMDR
I did except I left it running while I made a head call.
I watched the whole thing because I was doing it with him. A lot of stop and go action tho and no where near his time 😅
It took me a week lol
o7
You just made a video an hour and 38 minutes long of you just repeatedly jumping.... great.
Do you have any idea what he's even doing? It's a world record video to prove it's real. What more could you want? You're not actually meant to watch this as entertainment.
This trip usually takes days, especially if you scan planets. This guy doing it in this little time is skeptical, it's good there is video evidence to show it can be done.
Did it in 4 hours! Easy... Anyway don't worth it don't come to colonia stay away
OMG This is so long...
Well he is travelling over twenty thousand lightyears. He has to keep concentration for the whole time too or he'll get toasted.
Most people take over 2 days for this journey.
First and only time I've been to Colonia I went in a very lightly engineered DBX and it took me over two weeks, there and back, half of that without a detailed surface scanner (I bought one near Colonia lol). I was Exploration elite by the time I came back and personally discovered three ELWs, one with a moon! Now when I go back in my fully engineered phantom it will take at least a month because I'm going to see many sights along the way. Lots of nebulae in my future!
You write so fast...
I'm pretty sure he bookmarked every star he was going to jump to along his route.
For a point of a record, well done, but as for the dynamics of the 2nd life, you'd be dead very quickly with this build.
You wouldn't survive a battle, a collision & other dangers lurking. Still, this record is well done but even as a 2nd life, a Fantasy.
It's not a finished game, this as a speed run isn't very intelligent and your score will never stick as long as updates keep rolling out
This was four years ago. Impressive imo.
