Only had a few hours to dabble , but , so far, ive managed to kit out a Type 6 with a pretty decent mining / exploration set up.
Done a bit of exploring with Advanced scanner, and detail surface scanner. Not a great deal of credits in it yet... but my plan is to find new exciting places, take a happy snap ..... then strip them down to the bare bones of all their precious shiny metal thingies, and sell it for a huuuge profit !! Wooo Hoooo !!
Not actually tried mining as yet, as im looking to get hold of a decent Power plant upgrade ... so that I can actually breathe while im trying my hand at blasting rocks into smaller rocks.
I kept the basic sidey to see how multiple ships works.
You get a nice little blue ship icon on the Galaxy map to show you where you left it. Also , in the shipyard,. there is a tab on the menu that gives the location of your ships incase you forgot.
Only prob Ive noticed, is I keep picking up fines for no apparent reason ... strange.
Not actually seen an Imperial ship up close yet.
Hope to get a decent Viper set up again by the weekend to do a bit of hunting ... but alas ... another night shift calls.
