If the previous poster is correct (citation needed) both rock sector and rock homework can spawn in the same game. The rock home world can spawn in nodes 5-7 from my games.

Killing the crew without destroying their ship gives a small chance to download the map data for the sector. You can either try to buy long range scanners to make this easier, or you could be lucky and get map data. * The Zolton survey should be a normal location on long range scanners. * It may be the case that you can find the stasis pod, and the zolton survey in the same engi map if this is true.

It only appears in the Zolton and Engi map in the file, but from my play throughs it seems like it is more common then that. Ideally you want to find it in the first 4 nodes. * So rock ship makes this part the easiest. * Rock shielding gives a 100% chance to get it, while the white option only has a 33% chance.

Most of these questions have simple, factual answers that I simply do not know, but the answers to these questions would greatly help in narrowing down the search. As such, using a Rock Cruiser would seem to be beneficial for unlocking the Crystal Cruiser.īelow, I have some specific questions. I want to know what tips and tricks help these events take place.Įxample: In the first event where you obtain the stasis pod, having Rock Plating gives you a blue option that seems to increase the chances of getting through the field and finding the abandoned crystal ship. I want to maximize my odds of getting all of these things to happen in the right order in the same run. Go to the quest marker in the secret sector. Find the ancient warp gate thing and have the Crystal activate it.ĥ. Give the stasis pod to the Zoltan when they want to study your crew. Find the crystal ship in some kind of debris/asteroid field and take the stasis pod.Ģ.
