When I played I just went into the galaxy and explored. If you go into an area with heavy neutron-star/black-hole population and you're the first to discover that place, you can get hundreds of millions for a couple day's work.

Of course you need a couple mills to buy and kit out a decent explorer ship to begin with. Plus I have no idea if they nerfed the exploration payouts since I last played, but back then it was pretty good money.

Is there a way to jump more than one system at a time?
What do you mean? You can buy better jump drives that get you farther in one jump, but you cannot "skip" a jump if that's what you mean.

Plus there should be a kind of fuel-economy setting in the map to calculate routes. If you tell it to be fuel-efficient, it will make lots of small jumps, if you want to get there faster it will calculate at your max jump distance, but then you'll have to make either fuel-stops along the way or install a fuel-scoop and harvest it from stars when running low (that's how people are able to stay out in the wild indefinitely).

Plus there's neutron-star boosting, but that's for covering HUGE distances, like when travelling to Colonia or Sagittarius A* or some other far away destination.


Or buy a carrier Very Happy 500ly in a jump.. yes there's a 20 minute cooldown but I find the idea of bringing a space station around the galaxy with me quite useful!

(for only 5 billion credits+ 500 million for optional modules, and only 20 million for weekly upkeep)

docking comes with practice, you'll be doing a lot of docking in this game so you will get good at it, no matter what control setup you're using haha, either that or use the slow ass autodock Laughing

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

Bloody hell!
Thats kind of a thing that I thought felt boring in Elite - that you never actually see the other players. I like this alot! (also, quite nice when you are meeting up to play coop in a ship)


shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.
