    There are some strange builds you can do... Did you know the game will let you take off without a generator? Like, no generator at all. Just a battery. It actually works pretty well for a shipping company, as long as you can make it to the next port before your power runs out. Of course if...

    From a Reddit post: My sequence is as follows: Sparrow, Berserker/Hawk, Clipper/Argosy, Firebird/Osprey, Falcon/Leviathan, Shield Beetle, Palavret, Rano’erek. This sequence can be achieved in a few hours via pirate bounties, camping squirrel territory, and finally camping Misam with nerve gas...

    Of course, if you enjoy Dark souls games, the sparrow might be your favorite way to start. But it's the most tedious and at least certain I can think of off hand. My favorite way is to start with a star barge and run a trade route. Add star barges as finances permit. When you start attracting...

    From a forum on steam: Buy Clothes on Relic, in the Sirius system. Sell Clothes on Shiver, in the Altair system. Buy Luxury goods on Shiver. Sell Luxury goods on Relic. Repeat. Buy more freighters at Luna in the Sol system when you can. That's only one way to do it though. You could also...

    The sparrow is a trap. You think that's what you want to start out with, because this is supposed to be a game where you fly around and shoot stuff, but it is the hardest to start with. Remember that text wall when you started the game? Remember how they mentioned insurance is so much higher for...

    Workplace

    Emails within the office? They probably think it doesn't matter. I'm not saying it DOESN'T, but they probably think it doesn't. (People still do email? OFFICES still do email? They should at least have switched to a group text or WhatsApp group by now...)

    Argosy is strictly early game. Not enough gun ports. Not enough crew bunks to use as a board-and-capture ship. They don't even bring a very good price when you farm them at bandit systems and sell them off. I mean... I'll take them, but only barely.

    Oh... No, no, no. Nonononono. I had to google it back when I played it. And when I did, I found a LOT of people complaining about how unintuitive it is. But for a free game... Eh. Whatever.

    Can I beat the odds?

    If you have learned, it was not wasted. :cool:

    It has been years, so I asked my phone for you. AI Overview In Endless Sky, docking refers to parking a ship at a planet or station. This is achieved by landing on a planet and then pressing "I" to access the Player Info menu. From there, navigate to the Ship Info tab, select the desired...

    Why Its Easier to Make Unbelieving Friends?

    Hehe! Don't worry. It's this wonky forum. It has been doing that a lot lately. If you hit Post reply and it looks like it didn't post, just walk away until the forum feels better. Your post probably went through, but doesn't show up yet.

    Conversion advice

    All I know about Breton is, in Skyrim Bretons have great magic defense. Speaking of Skyrim, and Yorkshire, there's a character on youtube who calls himself The Spiffing Brit, and he's always finding ways to exploit game mechanics to make hilariously overpowered exploits. He touts Yorkshire tea...

    You park ships at a port, in the menu where you refit them. No idea about the world ship. I used a mod that put the Normandy in the game, along with a little storyline where you acquire it. Normandy as in the ship from the mass effect games.

    Here's what I like to do to raise money: Get a few sentinel ships, the ones with six turrets a piece. Outfit them with all lasers, because then they will stop shooting instantly when an enemy ship becomes incapacitated, without killing it. Take them to a pirate system, and park them way off...
