So I'm over 100 hours in and I've just reached the point where I've made it above Aquilo's orbit.

However, I wonder if I spent too much time setting up a janky interplanetary logistics system rather than just using Nauvis resources for science. Also, Gleba spiders keep eating my base.

Figured I'd ask then... How long did it take before you touched down on Aquilo in your playthrough?

As long as your having fun, take your time.

This is my approach, it took me 20 hours to leave navis for the first time.

I'm over 100 hours and haven't even made it yet.

It's been at least 20 hours since I said "let's get there". But preparing for it was supply issues after supply issue

Close to 100 hours. Have a ship that I think can get there once it's done stocking up

Roughly 80 hours. Wasted a lot of time on Gleba before that tho. I also invested waaaaaay too much time and resources in the new ship for outer system flight.

Time on Aquilo itself was pretty short. I might have worked longer on the production platform that is placed in orbit and sends stuff down to the planet, than on the planet itself.

3-4 player server here. I'd guess 250-350 collective hours to get to the orbit

It's been at least 150 more total since and aquillo is kinda humming along
