I spent some of my free SP on getting Lv. 5 Anchoring skill to be able to build a outpost.

Every time I drop an egg and go to anchor it, it tells me I have to be at a planet. I have tried several times and it says the same thing.

Does this mean no outpost can be built on Singularity? or am I missing something I am unaware of?

Yup, I have tried everything too, other then flying for half a day into a planet :)

If someone built one on Singularity let me know, then I can go figure it out.

But, since it is a permanent structure, I am thinking it might not be buildable on Singularity, since it is giving me a hard time.

Yup, I even tried that after I warped to 3 different planets.

I am going to try again this weekend and see what happens. If it does not work, then I know to spend my points elsewhere next mirror.

(EDITED) I just clued in that you said you have build one before, OK. I will log in later and try to get this going. Maybe it was just a bug at the time and been fixed since. Hopefully.

OK, I might have found the answer, but it will take a couple days to see if it works.

Here's what I came across. "Please note: Outposts cannot be launched or anchored near planets that have a customs office."

So, I am going to blow one up in my system and try to anchor an egg again, Hopefully this works.

Just to let everyone know. I figured it out.

If you plan on deploying an outpost on Singularity. You have to destroy the Customs Office first.

This got me for days and then it took two days to destroy one. I am glad I can now have a outpost to play around with, just got to get the materials before downtime.

Paying $100 for one tritanium is expensive. I going to have to blow up a few Capitals to get this coin.

Anchor a reprocessing array in the system, have a freighter, reprocess a ton of conpressed veld, unlimited trit, way cheaper than paying the 100

Yup, worked perfectly, you saved me hours of self destructing and transporting tritanium into the system.


Dear CCP: If you are reading this, please change the message that's displayed when dropping an egg by a planet with a customs office.

It was telling me that I had to be in orbit of a planet to anchor an egg. I was in orbit.

Change it to "There is already a structure anchored to the planet" or something. I would I figured it out within seconds to destroy the customs office, but it took me days and a forum post to figure out what was happening, since no other structure has that, it got me.
