To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

So I just started playing the game. I've been dabbling in Elite: Dangerous and I wanted to check out its roots.
Here's the thing. I just finished that race to Ghandi. Yay! Used my winnings to buy medicine. When I fly to Soholia I ALWAYS get attacked by pirates. No matter how many times I load, no matter how fast I try to fly through, no matter what, I get targeted.
I can't fight back. I press T to target hostiles. It does nothing. I click the little red targeting reticle. Nothing. I can't fire missiles. All I can do is manually aim lasers and hope for the best.
What am I doing wrong? What can I possibly do? I am totally stumped and can not progress any further.
It's been an age since I played this and I can't remember offhand but don't you have to click on the icon to fire the missile.
Also make sure you have some missile on board.
