[Expedition 3] Planetary outpost and hill

[Kiritsu]

Hi,

I might be dump but I have a lot of difficulty to find the planetary outpost. I searched a lot and mostly found factory, transmission and some other building.

Is there a way to find it and no I don't have the economy scanner.

Also, do you guys have a hint on how to do those 2 steps.

The Hills Are Alive – Summit a mountain of at least 625 units.
Rocketman – Spend 30 continuous seconds airborne.

Thanks in advance.

It took me a lot of planetary chart to finally locate my outpost.

My minotaur had no technology tab and I was bot able to scan and mine with it.

For rocketman, you effectively can get it by flying on a wall of your base.

I was finally able to make herox by learning the recipe via a manufacturing (iirc) facility. I was under the impression I'm supposed to find a trade centre to get the recipe but I was never able to find one on foot.

Either counts for the milestone by the way. Mine triggered when I entered the roofed portion of a normal trading post on my way to the trade terminal.

I found a colossal archive and it did not count. No maps, or scanners of any kind will locate a trading post. And I have searched for two solid days scanning everywhere. Nothing ever shows up. Do these people even test these crappy missions?

install a bloody Economy Scanner, gives you the 7 pad trading post every time. be sure to scan from space though

One tip here, don't assume you HAVE to do these expeditions in order. They can be, but checking forward can save you some grief.

As can deciding "too hard now, I'll do that when I have a ship and some mobility". And just a comment there, storm crystals sell high, collect and sell enough and you could probably buy a functioning ship from a black-marketeer.

Examples:
Herox, not a problem, have minotaur with full set of scanners, find depot, walk a very long way, raid depot, leap into lake to hide from sentinels :), have herox - which was a long way ahead of where I was. Same thing with Larval cores, stumbled across an abandoned building while I was looking for something else and used the traditional trick to raid it for cores.

The only one I had grief with was rocketman, and I'll concede I looked that up in the end. The solution is the inspired brilliance and moments of utter terror which make this game worth playing.

11 hours, 50m credits, 8500 nanites and complete and I had a LOT of fun doing it.

I suspect the reward is worth having as well - hungry lil ***tard - I imagine his somewhat upsize spawn with be formidable.
