Exodus Fleet questions

[Fralee]

1)how long dose it take them to jump to the sector you tell them to?

2) How often dose the shop refresh/change?

3) is there any way to collect the items in the shuttle if you dont have a cargo hauler/building to hold it

4) how often do you get quests from them to get points to buy stuff from them?

For 3, Im pretty sure you can just click the cargo shuttle and have them "release" the items, just like when building a station, or when you find a cargo shuttle in a derelict.

hello there. Unfortunately, i dont have answers to your questions, but i am searching info about Exodus fleet. How do we move them to water/ores/whatever?
I found special places for them on the map with all these resources, but button "move the Exodus fleet" is just inactive. How do we do this?

as far as ive been able to figure out there is an option to have them jump to your location if your traveling or dropped out of hyperspace into a system
did you accept the mission from the start to help them?

1.) I would go with depends how far they are. For me it takes usually 3-10 turns, but i travel with them around. My best guess is that you should check the system where they are, if it is a neighbouring one, they need to reach the jump point, then go to the exit jump point and then to your system. So pretty much like you travelling. (But it is so far more of a gut feeling and i have to test it out.)

2) Should be on average 5 days. But because of jumps and save/reload the turns can get longer and occasionally shorter. They will refresh about every 5 day on a new turn phase. (But again sometimes they take longer sometimes they take less.)

3.) If the cargo shuttle is attached to a ship, then yes. You can use the operate button, and open the shuttle. If it is just floating in space(which i have not seen in a while), the no, without a cargo pod you cannot.

4.) It is random. They get an event like every 10 or 20 turns. It can be a positive or a negative one. Negative ones are usually that they ask you to find them a spot.
