Trumbles are not currently present in [[Elite Dangerous]]. They ~~were a feature of~~ the Commodore 64 port of [[Elite]].<ref name="FAQ" />

== Overview ==

Trumbles are not currently present in [[Elite Dangerous]]. They are in the Commodore 64 port of the original [[Elite]].<ref name="FAQ" />

Lady [[Kahina Tijani Loren]]'s only weakness seemed to be her fondness for trumbles.<ref>[[Elite: Reclamation]]</ref> The [[Anaconda Mk II]] Internal Expedition Kit Pack, has a sticker of a Trumble and the [[Elite logo]] on the back of a monitor.

=== Food ===

Trumble Extract is an ingredient of food and drinks in Elite Dangerous. [[Happy Haulers]] delivers [[Happy Hog Roast]] that may include Trumbles.<ref name=":0" /> [[Cassini Cola]] and [[Vega Juice]] also contain Trumble Extract.<ref name=":0" />

== '''Trumble Mission''' ==

The C-64 version, uniquely I believe, had the ‘Trumble’ mission too. Basically you’d be offered an exotic pet when you reached 6553.5 credits. This pet would sit in your cargo hold and then consume anything edible, eventually infesting your forward screen. The only way to get rid of them was to fly close to the sun and kill them off through excessive heat. They were clearly a nod to StarTrek’s Tribbles, but they were reputedly named after Donald and Douglas Trumbull, father and son pioneer team of many motion picture special effects.<ref>[https://www.drewwagar.com/progress-report/the-trouble-with-trumbles/ The Trouble with Trumbles - Drew Wagar]

==Notes==

* Trumbles have ~~some~~ similarities to, and were likely inspired by, [[w:c:memory-alpha:Tribble|tribbles]] from the [[w:c:memory-alpha:Star Trek|Star Trek]] franchise, which pre-date them by 17 years
