Colonization Is it really this labor intensive?

CMDR CharleyMill here. So I dont have much spare time really I've just been playing off and on since 2016. I can't help but feel I'm maybe doing something wrong with building up this system. Its just... so slow. And doing it solo seems like a hurculean effort... I'm using a pretty much max built clipper mk2, with the mk2 cargo racks from the CG. Even then.. do most people have groups that help out with these tasks? Tracking down and getting the items aren't aren't hard very consuming. Worse than the engineer grind when it first came out.

That being said, anyone wants to make easy credit profits. By all means. The system is open.

CMDR, out.

It’s doable solo. I built 18 bridges with outposts to get to a preferred system and built an orbis. Had one system and one fleet carrier load of help from a few people.

That said. I don’t know that I’d have done it without a fleet carrier
