Life as a Lane Hacker

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!

Life as a Lane Hacker

Is it possible to be a lane hacker, maybe stationed in Ouary(sp?) base?
I haven't tried this yet...do you just shoot the trade lanes to disrupt them?
If so, being a lane hacker could be REALLY profitable.

This is my Eagle. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Cool.. that would be relly Cool.. but did you read up y lane hackers are called that ? it must have something to do with the technical hacking bit, not supported on ur ship. but seeing that rogues can do it, i don't see how hard that can be. maybe just select on the trade lane and press 'ESC' ??

presently, my world is upside down, so if u do not mind, u'll have to tok to my a$$

Just checked it...yep, just shoot trade lanes to disrupt them. they never blow up.
Later i'll head out to Scum's pirate server to do that (you start out as a pirate, friendly to xenos

Yep, when you target a trade ring you will see a bar underneath the target. just like a hull status bar, when it reaches zero the ring is disrupted, and now its freighter/transport blowing up time. Use a freighter of your own to maximixe profit, or a fighter to minimize risk. You Pirate! hehe
