I like this, not as many moochers..

It's always been like this.

It's just not effective though, because people can just get a program to auto-wake at specific intervals.

Online gaming has changed a lot over the years...

Am I the only swab that noticed they have the descriptions of
iron and steel swapped? Steel is refined iron. Duh!

There's actually still 2 ways to avoid that.... you can auto-run against a ship wall or just, "repair."

What's the best way to get some of these materials fast? I'm only up to 124 Iron and it seems to take forever to get any of these materials by myself.

Try public ships on Abassa. Often you'll find captains who just want to gather loot, and will continue to increase their loot value when the cargo hold is full (and as a result of this you may be asked to repair the ship at X amount of health). Abassa may be full of crazies, but most public ships out there are actually pretty decent.

Good luck with the material hunting!

Oh yeah, this definitely helped.

Found a guy that went on for about an hour before he docked and we ended up with 13 Rare Ship Material Chests and 5 Ship Material Chests.
