====Location, Location, Location==== With the exception of Thera, all wormholes (C1-C6, Shattered, etc.) are viable candidates for rescue caches. Once inside the wormhole, it is all about...location, location, location! Caches should be sown between 22,000 and 50,000 km from a planet. This will be off-grid in most cases, yet still easy enough to travel to. *If the cache is too visible or too close to locals, there is a good chance someone will tamper with or ambush it. (This is a good possibility anyway, but there is no need to make it any easier for them.) Out of D-Scan range of an anchored structure is a good rule-of-thumb. *Avoid dangerous locations, being mindful of objects that may de-cloak capsuleers near the cache. *Do not place the cache such that it might be confused with something more dangerous. *Do not place the cache such that it might impact or interfere with the locals. *Caches must be not be too difficult to reach (e.g., cache location should not require flying through the location planet from the planet's warp-to-zero point). *The cache location should not require flying through the location planet. An easy way to ensure this is for the align planet to be closer to the star than the location planet. *More information on cache placement can be found in this post on the Forums: [https://forums.eve-scout.com/topic/1253/esrc-complicated-geometries ESRC Complicated Geometries] *Caches must not be too far out of the way (in other words, don't place it at your 40 AU safe spot). *Caches should not be visible (on-grid) from any planet, moon, structure, or the star. *Always use the planetβs warp-to-0 point itself as your align point, not the Customs Office (if one is present). While it is often safer to warp to the CO, planetary geometries present too many situations where the cache cannot be reliably located after it is sown if you align it using a CO. *If caches are regularly being destroyed in a system contact a member of the [https://evescoutrescue.com/home/about.php ESR Coordinator Team] (ping '''@ESR-Coordinator''' on [https://discord.gg/0qn6aJxK8iwEfiwF Discord] or message one in-game if they are online) to get approval to sow an unaligned cache. If you are unsure as to how to sow an unaligned cache the coordinator will instruct you. *Don't use the star unless system has only one planet. *<b>Note:</b> Gas planets typically break our expected geometry patterns. The warp-in point can be as much as 20,000 km from the planet surface, thus causing caches sown at even 30,000 km from the planet to be on-grid and visible from the warp-in point. Avoid using gas planets as a location planet. If you sow a cache at a gas planet, please make sure to sow it toward the higher end of the range (50,000 km) and ensure it is not on-grid from the planet's warp-in point.
