How to install a mining laser

Post by jamestory » Sun, 28. Mar 04, 20:51

I got TS, and a mining laser in the hold. when i select my frieght i can see my mining laser with the words install next to it, but when i select it, it jumps to my weapons selector, and then nothing i can do. it does not show up on my laser list, and i cannot equip it to a turret.

Can anyone help?

Which TS do you have? Not all TSs can equip mining lasers.

What the!? Why not? Which TS's can't install a mining laser so I don't buy one? It doesn't say in the specs so it looks like I'd just have to buy and then be dissapointed.

It does say in the ship specs, just look at the weapon compatibility chart. Alternatively have a look at this list on the Argonopedia.

TO ALL CONCERNED

YOU DO NEED A SPEC SHIP ( TELADI /SPLIT)

+ I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT YOU NEED TO PURCHASE TWO LASERS ! :(

1 LASER WILL NOT WORK :(

PS ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN SELL NIVIDIUM !

Er, not quite true. The Paranid Demeter can carry the mining laser, and you only need to buy one of them. Nividium is bought in small quantities by various stations including some Snail Ranches. To sell in larger quantities, you could try loading it into a captured ship and selling the ship. You won't receieve full price, but it is better than nothing.

Moved to the main forum as no bugs involved.
