Certain jumponium materials such as Germanium can also be located in asteroid belts around planets (i.e. pristine metallic rings) so if the rats have a mining laser, it's possible to get certain materials without the need to scoop on planets.

Info
titleAsteroid Belts

Based on information collected by the Rock Rats and other Fleet Comm members, the following is a list of suggestions related to Asteroid Belts:

  • Metal - rich belts are pretty good for materials
  • There are 4 medium material asteroids in the large 12-asteroid clusters. Those are the best place to look first
  • Each belt has a different list of materials compared to other belts in the same system (if you don't find materials needed in one, don't give up, check the others)
  • Don't bother with ice belts because they have such low yields of materials


Once jumponium materials have been collected, make sure to plot a route back to safe space with a high enough density of stars for the client to continue their journey.  If multiple rats are assigned to the rescue, one technique is to have one rat plot a route back to safe space, making a list of each jump (also noting jump range) including systems that need jumponium to reach, while the other rat(s) stay with the client and start making jumps when a clear route is identified.
