[Solved] Exile Survey Hacker
« on: April 04, 2015, 12:56:50 pm »
I can't get the Exile Survey Hacker to start hacking, nothing happens. I'm on a 25 planet map. Exile filter shows 4 hops, but it's 6 hops to the Exo-galatic wormhole.

That is wrong?

Edit: Started a new map. This time the exile filter show 0 hops and there were 2 text in journal. No need for a hacker just capture the planet to get the Broken Exodian Blade.
Is this a bug?

Edit 2: I got the achievement :)

The exile survey hacker isn't the same as the survey ship in its working. You use it on AI worlds, and get a general direction of where the Blade is based on distance from the first point and distance from the surveyed planet. (and occasionally get the information anyway if you capture a planet.)

When the filter says 4 hops, it means that from [marked planet], the blade is within 4 hops of that one in some direction. A planet that shows zero hops is the planet with it hiding on it.
