Find your own Trade Routes, and have more FUN
Just another little suggestion/advice for some people:
Instead of Spiling yourself by reading about the uber trade route that yeilds you 13-billion credits on one run on these forums, try this instead:
Whenever you land on a new base or planet, go to the commodities dealer. Click on the commodities that he is selling at a good price (Green). Below you will notice that information comes up concerning that commodity, along with a list of everywhere in the known universe it is sold, and for how much. It is also sorted in order from Highest Price to lowest, for you convenience. Just start going down the list and checking your Nav Map for a trade route that looks good for you based on your current reputation, etc. If no routed looks profitable enough Vs. your risk, move on and explore some more bases/planets, repeat. It won't take long until you find a profitable trade route on you own. You'll have a better understanding of the area because you explored it yourself, and the satisfaction you'll get when you complete the run, especially after narrowly escaping some would be hijackers; will be all the more satisfying.
