Players piloting the Prospector in Elite Dangerous have encountered a snag when trying to buy the 5D fighter hangar and tier 6 cargo at Shinrarta. A commander reported that these modules were initially unavailable for purchase until other ship modules were rearranged, suggesting a possible slot or size conflict. This has sparked community discussion about whether the limitation is a bug or an intentional design by Frontier Developments. The issue affects commanders seeking to optimize their Prospector loadout for mining and combat support, as it restricts straightforward customization. Clarification from developers is pending, but players should be aware of potential module slot dependencies when upgrading their Prospector.
- 5D fighter hangar and tier 6 cargo initially unavailable at Shinrarta for Prospector
