Below you will find partial extracts from my most recent report.
The reader will note that I ran out of TU's to complete all of my orders for the current week.

Also listed at the end are two pending orders.


By now these orders will have been executed, yet I have received no updates indicating safe arrival (or otherwise), and therefore I have been wondering whether reports are only generated in a one-to-one relationship with turn submissions.

Can anyone indicate what the truth is.

If on the other hand, the one-to-one relationship does not exist, then what method exists to acquire the necessary information for planning the next turn, without submitting a dummy turn of some kind.

Thanks in advance

Archangel

You only receive an update if you *ask* for an update.

So your new ordersheet should be an blank one, with only "Request Update".

Another way is using:
Wait on Tus (#number of tus)
Jump (system)

Then you will get an update when you got enough TUS and you jumped.

You can even combine them.

Wait on tus (#number of tus)
Jump (system)
Scan System
Wait on tus (#number of tus)
Jump (system)
Scan System

This way you get only updates when you have jumped and scanned an system.

Or when you accumulate 240 TUs and have pending orders

240 TU's

and IC note that Audrey is Imperial space

tsk, tsk

if you don't get an automatic update today something is wrong, it's possible you had under 60 tus left so would have only had from 240 to 300 by the friday.

as far as i know turns are processed only when current tus + turn tus > max tus. So 241 or more at the start of the day. it might be 240 i guess.

Thank you all.

Report arrived this AM as you all predicted.
