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.

Hey, what are some good trade runs in this game?

The economy doesn't seem to fit.

game is still in early development

In theory devleoping worlds if agriculatural should demand minerals and services and advanced technology

Space colonies would absorb all materials , gases and produce specific space technology

Mining asteroids would demand food services and equipment

Pirate bases would demand legal stuff and sell illegal substances ie narcotics

New colonies would need basic materials inne rwrolds produce high tech

If u need cash on the main space screen just hit crtl+m for 1m credits repeat for as many as needed

I guess as game goes along the economic model will be developed its a bit of a mess atm but a few programmers are wroking on it

I tried trade runs in the Eagle Long Range Fighter but it is not economical. There's simply not enough cargo space to make trade runs profitable.

If you're trying to make some money within the current confines of the game (i.e. by not cheating) then have a look at doing package runs. Advise you upgrade your hyperdrive first...
