You need a ship that can take XL wares like TS - class ships. You can check the size limit of wares your ship can take like in the screenshot.

Concerning trading in the Terran sectors:
You could sell silicon at the drone manufacturing station in Mars sector. But silicon is also XL size...

Thanks Themken.

I am now back to the Follow The Nova Mission...
The walk Through say "Don't Get Too Close, or Too Far away, or an Anxiety Meter will appear. If That gets to 100% You Failed The Mission"

What the H#ll is an Anxiety Meter, and Where do I see it???

Also, When I click on the ship, I Select "Auto Follow"...

The walk Through Says to Click "Match Speed, or Shift-F" in order to keep the proper distance I guess... But when I Click Shift-F, The Auto Follow is Knocked Out.

Also, The Ship Comes Toward me, and usually passes within 50m or so when I am In Auto Follow Mode... Does That Trip The Anxiety Meter??

The Nova Drops me EVERY TIME!! I would think that was why I had to do this mission 16 or 18 times Yesterday.....
Missed It By That Much!!

Mouse Flight, and Shift-F is the Key, and Patience...

Got to the Base, Drew Off The Pirates, and went Back to the Base... got scan started, and It was Interupted when I could not stop quickly enough... Then DIED When I bumped The Base Trying to get Back In Scan ragnge!!!

I also saw the Anxiety Meter....

Finally Done!!

Thanks to the group for the help.
Every once in a while, I come across a Ship Wreck.

I have not seen anything of Value in the area when I am near them.

Is There anything To Glean from These??

Forgot: Same Question for the "X" Gates??

They are used in some plots, otherwise no use but you or your enemies can crash into them.
Well,,,,,, I Finally Figured out WHY an Entire System will TURN RED at Times...

The Rediculous Short Time Period for Retrieving Many Ships is NO WHERE NEAR Enough, and when you don't get it to the Staion in Time, You Are Reported to The Police as A THIEF!!!

That Is JUST PLAIN STUPID!!! When you pick up a ship that does 32 to 45 mps, Through 4 or 5 systems, There Should Be NO TIME LIMIT!!!

Ah, you have found out that you must yourself estimate how hard a mission is. The game seems to have no checks in place as it can offer you missions that are totally impossible for you to do. Never take on a task that you are not pretty certain you are able to complete .

Help on how to do missions: https://www.x3wiki.com/index.php/Missions

Help speciffically on return ship missions: https://www.x3wiki.com/index.php/Return_Ship
A Teladi Kestrel, or Pirate or advanced if you can aquire one, is very much recommended and so is a fast TM ship or other that has carrier capacity, also a jumpdrive & ECells, a transporter device to beam over JD + ECells and a docking computer. Damaged ships that have under 90% hull left will have their speed reduced relative to amount of damage; consider (not automatically correct choice) repairing it to 90%. Maybe also investing (cost not reimbursed) in speed upgrades for the ship.

The Egosoft forums is a wonderful source of lots of information too.
Under 'X Trilogy Universe' you find gameplay help for the X3 games. Just make sure they talk about the one you are playing and not Reunion or Albion Prelude (unless you switched to playing that).

-------------
I spotted a mistake in the game installer: The installed play icons for the Terran War Pack are called 'X3:Albion Prelude' (correct) and 'X3 - Terran War Pack' instead of 'X3:Terran Conflict'.

My Game, On GOG List Does say Terran War Pack... Worng Game?? Can I get that Changed on my List??

It is often Tough to See what the actual Dificulty will be when Speaking to Vendors. I often need a Cargo Life Support that I do not have...

Thanks for the Info, I will look into those links.

Cargo life support system found in Pirate bases and in a couple of Boron special stations.

2/3 of all missions I discard as too hard or impossible and from the last third I only pick some.

'Terran War pack' is the game Terran Conflict + its add-on Albion Prelude, there is NO game called specifically "Terran War Pack". Not a big problem but an eyesore.

Is there any way to Delete a Saved Game??

On Windows? Windows 10?

Saves 11-13 are the auto-saves. Usually you have no need to delete those.

Computer>documents>Egosoft>X3TC>Save>the saves listed by number. CHECK IN-GAME WHICH SAVE SLOT FROM THE TOP IS THE ONE TO BE DELETED!!! Make sure to scroll up ALL the way so you know where slot one is! Then you just pick the save file you want to delete and send it to the wastebasket (in case it was the wrong one).
