Re: Newbie--Help

Have been checking the neighbor system, got what repair minerals are on what planets, not all of the planets yet, but most of them, found some ruins on this one planet but all 3 of t...

Re: Hints and locations

sorry for the gross error i said cargo pod a few times when it should have been Terrain Vehicle. You do not loose your cargo pods, just the TV. As far as for the first trip or two concentrate on getting the maximum number of cargo pods available or 16 that is mandatory if you want to make money and ...

Re: Newbie--Help

the nice thing about The Lost Colony is if you loose your TV to an attack you at least do not loose your crew, only the stuff you have picked up on the trip. In the original starflight some of your crew might have died. So you had to hire new crew members and train them. Well wish me luck since late...

Re: Newbie--Help

Good for you Frank glad to hear you got out of star port, now hit the planets with no life forms first, that way you do not have to keep spending 2,000 Mu's every time your cargo pod gets destroyed by the life forms. I learned it the hard way by loosing at least 3 of them on the ice planet, lucky fo...

Re: Newbie--Help

At this time that is all the info that was gathered regarding the system of Arth, if there is anything else to discover while I explore the system I will post them in that topic. Also my scientific guy...

How to make money fast When they send you Islay to do a scan, go down to the planet and collect some endurium, keep only the most expensive metals, you only have one cargo pod. You should have more than enough endurium to get back to star port with no problem. When you go to the planet Ildatach to ...

Re: Tutorial difficulty

before you hit planets with life forms build up your cash reserve on the ones with no life forms, that way when u go after the life form for one of the training mission you will have the extra cash to buy a cargo pod. I had to do what you did when i went to get the life form in the training mission ...
