Help past lvl 18 please!

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Help past lvl 18 please!

Hi, i finished the game (level 18) and am having difficulty leveling any further.
basically the "amlunt needed for next level" keeps going down, and the current worth keeps going up.
It says i need 87000 but i already have more than 90,000.
Am i doing something wrong? SOme guy told me to get jobs in manhattan, but at 2,000 a time i dont want to.
Any help is appreciated.

I have read somewhere on this forum where you can do missions for 100k +
can't remember where, try looking through the whole threads.

Or you can always do trade runs and theres plenty of information on this board. Have a look around, which is what im doing right now.

Atm, im thinking of getting the humback to do some trade run

Thanks for the link! Ill try that now

according to that explaination, you NEED to make another 87K before you level up....

I think you're misinterpreting the next-level requirement. It's not telling you what your worth needs to be, it's telling you how much you need to *increase* your worth.

What follows is a well-known method to level very quickly, don't read any further if you want to work things out for yourself.

Get yourself a freighter like the Humpback or Dromedary and shuttle Niobium from New Tokyo to The Ring in New Berlin, and Diamonds from New Berlin back to New Tokyo. Take the shortcut through Sigma-13. Repeat until you get to level 38, which won't take too long.

Yes, after the story it mysteriously switches from total Networth to how much more networth you need.

Yes. After the story is finished, the number shown where it states what is needed for the next level is how much more you have to get. Say you're at 100,000 credits. The next level box says '100,000'. Accumulate 50,000 and you'll see the box number shrinks to 50,000. Get another 50,000 (50,000 + 50,000 = 100,000 don't ya know) and you'll level up. A new figure will appear in the box, and the credits required will drop as you earn more.

I have a strange problem at level 38 that could be a glitch, in SP. I explored, I got to level 38, made a few million in trade. Saved a seperate game to become a pirate. BUt now, something mysterious has happened. It says, instead of saying that Level 38 is the maximum level, that I need a mission to level up. As if I was playing through the campaign again. And, as a result, every bar I go into - there are no jobs avaliable from the people. I click the job notice board, and it tells me to get to a higher level before missions are avaliable. Its as though I've just started the game, even though it still states that I'm level 38. Wierder still, its happened to both save games. Could be a virus, I don't know. Anyone else had a similar problem, tell me. I'm not looking forward to re-exploring the entire Sirius sector, seeking out every single jump hole, nebula and wreck. Took two days last time :S.
