good trade rout?

Post by samthetrue »

whats a good trade rout?
i got 25 credits...
i would like to up this a bit...
i have a infinite drive thing...
and a cargo ship...
and a full load of fuel... 40...
and a level 4 drive...

i dont need like a 100% profit ratio or anything like that...
just something that will make money... all the runs im doing now are eather making even or costing me money... or take me 10 minutes to get 3 credits...

also if anyone has a world they want me to test or if someone has a working world thast not on the finite drive then post it here... i want to do some exploring...

ALL the traders started out on the really slow routes - just gotta spend time building up your cash reserves before you can branch out - there are no easy fixes I'm afraid

use your infim to get to between tau & cirrus, take screengrabs or make notes of the trade reports, and work out which routes you can afford. its not difficult, just time consuiming in the early stages. stick at it :)

Fhko had some tricks up his sleeve and only had to do a low profit route once before pulling in the big bucks...but it has to do with circumstances I'm not sure you can duplicate...

I was just lucky enough not to update my client after the reset...leaving the previous fipro list intact...its not cheating if the advantage presents itself without your breaking any rules...

Heh. Exactly the sorta thing, though, that a considerate player would highligh rather than take advantage of. Good thing no-one's paying for this, then, innit :)
