I'm enjoying the game, much appreciation to the creator. The UI and all the ways to view the various information and details of the location, ships, space, etc. are easy to catch on to.

I've done about 5 or 6 missions in the starting area, have about 175,000 after buying a few training skills and some equipment, so now I have a few questions:

1) Should I look to buy a different ship soon? If yes, then is there a decent upgrade to the starting ship?

2) Is there any direction I should be going? I'm with Alpha but not sure if that means I should just do a lot of missions or if I should be doing some other goal.

3) What are some skills that are useful to level up during the beginning parts of the game?


Thank you for your help!

there are a few different ways you can go. but i tend to focus on getting 3 active module slots on a new ship, then train up a few mission skills. i take on mining missions, cause you can sell the extra rock, and sometimes it will spawn some good ore.

you can go any direction you want. i have been trying to get off the ground trading and refining. right in the staring sector, there is plenty of scrap to buy and refine and sell... for a nice profit. then start looking at the stations supply and demands, then try to put together a few trades by fulfilling buy orders.
