    So for clarity, sector 6 was discovered while it was AT sector 2 and before going to sector 4? This seems to blow proximity out of the water if it's true.

    I'm not sure I can understand german but comparing it to some screen shots from my FC mate it seems like it was discovered when it changed course to Sector 2 after finishing in Sector 5 so proximity may still play a role. By chance, can you translate how it did in sector 5 (abysmal, substandard or satisfactory)? I'm beginning to think that the rating of the sector might also play a part in discovering new things; which may be tied to condition of ship components? The report specifically says "condition"...thoughts?

    For righteous comparisons: http://imgur.com/a/86t9u

    Sorry to ask more of you but can you confirm on your airship map? I think it's been a known bug that the log is outputting the wrong sector found

    This was satisfactory (you can see it at the 100% bonus xp)

    And it supports the proxy theorie, but important is the sector the ship has left and not which sector it has reached,

    Digged through my screenshots and found older unlocks:

    Everytime a found a new sector i got a good result with 50% or 100% bonus XP, maybe this is important too.

    Edit: Sorry cant cancel yet because that would shift the return time into deep nighthours, but i will on saturday.

    And first report is correct (thats when i took my screens), but reports after your ship has departed are screwed sometimes

    This idea is starting to gain some traction with me! On my alt airship I visited sectors 01 and 02, at sector 01 I had a "substandard" rating (+50%) and it unlocked sector 03. At sector 02 I had an "Abysmal" rating (+0%) and it did not unlock sector 04. Let's keep an eye on this and see if we can disconfirm it or find more support.

    Please ignore the following, just doing some testing of images from the first post!

    Additional information that I'm wondering if we can collect: can we denote the condition of our airship components (fully repaired or not) and tie condition to wind effects? Perhaps turbulent or violent winds degrade our ships faster than no wind conditions? I'm only curious because the log specifically says the condition of the ship impacted our ability to get a 2nd item or not.

    What is up with this ridiculous 1000 character limit on posts? I'm going to have to make 3 different ones.

    I think B is the most common rating I'm seeing. I haven't been keeping track. I do know I got at least one "high extraction rate", earning a Satisfactory for the sector and an A rating for the single-sector voyage. I've seen one S rating in the past (no idea what parts or sectors); it must require a Satisfactory on more than one sector, I guess. Mostly I'm seeing normal extraction rates, though.
