Always look for S scanners, I now have 2 equipped and also got an A scanner upgrade too. Along those lines don't waste room getting every gun. Pick one or maybe two and upgrade the hell out of them. I use just the boltcaster, I'm still looking for upgrade I had before NEXT which was heat seeking shoots, barely had to aim and never missed sentinels.
Since it hasn't been mentioned yet here and I saw Jeff doing it in stream, when mining and you gun starts to heat up you don't have to wait till it completely cools down. You only want to let off long enough for the beam to stop than you can start again and temperature will restart at zero.
Jeff was also talking about saving up for more freighters in his fleet. These are that expensive 2-4 million each from what I've found so far. These are different from the large freighters you can buy and fly yourself, I saw one for 98 million. I now have four ships one of each kind, industrial, trade, combat, and exploration. Kind of scared so still sticking with one star missions and sending them has group, That being said the difficultly increase on mission once I assigned my 4 ships on it. Maybe there a bigger target all together? Hopefully the rewards are bigger too.
I was kind of happy to hear Jeff run into similar problem I did when getting new freighter somewhat. After watching him play again I guess I'm going to build an actual base. I haven't yet since next. I did start all those missions when they came out after some update, but at some point couldn't progress. I'm currently just fling around system to system in freighter with all 4 of those special terminals in cargo hold. So other than the one guy who keeps saying to build base, I am progressing others, though I may be at end of weapons guy.
In the most unusual thing of my last trip was I built another storage unit, even though they are terrible. However to my surprise I was full of stuff. I can on;y assume it was something I built and put stuff in at some other point, but there was no indication. I also have machine to get stuff from old base and I've already gotten all that stuff. I did't bother to build all storage units, but now I might just to see if any others have stuff in them.
