Well, there needs to be a "spoiler faq" that covers:
1.Monkey Planet/ "Planet of the Apes"
In Omicron Gamma,there is a jump hole in the "blue" cloud that says "Unknown Jump Hole".If you enter it,you will get to a strange looking system with two planets.One has monkeys(!) and the other has only robots.There are things to buy in the stores but i cant buy them.Does anyone know how to buy stuff from them?Who`s ass do I have kiss to buy stuff from them?
2.Robot Planet
3.Hispania wreck
4.Unknown System #1
5.Unknown System #2
6.2nd Sun in unknown system #2 (AKA 'the sun that doesn't kill you')
7.Unknown object(s) in Tau-37 sun
1."Which ship is the best?"
Do you prefer light fighters, slugs, gunboats (freighters) or heavy fighters
2."why can't I use a joystick?"
The designers decided to bail out.
4."Should I use Missiles?"
No.
6. 'What happened to earth?"
1."where is the Eagle?"
2."where is the Sabre?"
3."where is the Titan?"
4."where can i get class 10 weapons?"
You find them in wrecks, see number 5 below, etc.
BTW, the best collection of wrecks is Sigma 13 around 5C and 3C (the wrecks are strung out in a line between the two), take plenty of nanobots to deal with radiation damage as you fly.
What about class 9 weapons?
Buckshot Deshima Station, Shi***u
Firekiss Mk II Pirna Border Station, Dresden
Hornviper Mk II Pirna Border Station, Dresden
Kraken Type 2 Ruiz Base, Omicron Beta
Reaver Mk II Deshima Station, Shi***u
Salamanca Mk II Planet Crete, Omicron Gamma
Skyblast B Gas Miner Naha, Sigma-13
Tizona del Cid Cadiz Base, Omega-5; Tripoli Shipyard, Omicron Gamma
Wyrm Type 2 Planet Malta, Omicron Alpha
Buckshot Turret Deshima Station, Shi***u
Salamanca Turret Leon Base, Omega-41
Skyblast Turret B Gas Miner Naha, Sigma-13
Class 10 weapon locations are in another thread.
5."where can I get the Nomad guns?"
(you need to read the drek that comes up if you use search for this. Lots of ancient carping about how the plot was changed, etc.).
However, you need to decide if you are going to pay a rep bribe for the Outcats or the Corsairs. Easiest is to go to New London and wait for an Outcast Bribe. Then, make sure to stop on the bases on the way there, eventually you will be able to buy a level 10 shield, then on to the jump hole and Nomad hunting. If you want a Titan instead of an Eagle or Sabre, then bribe the Outcasts and kill two birds with one stone (level 10 shield and level 10 fighter) on the way to the Nomads.
6."where is the Sunslayer torpedo launcher?"
7."where is the paralyzer missile launcher?"
There isn't one.
8."Is there a c10 freighter?"
Would be neat to have a c12 freighter.
9."where can I get a c10 shield?"
10."can I get a c10 molecular or graviton shield?"
Omega-41 Leon Base, Omicron Alpha Planet Malta , Omicron Beta Ruiz Base , Omicron Gamma Planet Crete & Omicron Gamma Tripoli Shipyard -- the other level 10 shields listed in the game have a regeneration rate of 1 and you really don't want them -- not to mention, you can't get them.
11."is there a c10 turret?"
No, wait for an expansion.
12."How can I beat Hovis?" (Look here to find out how to skip the race )
Turn all graphics down to minimum settings, turn screen size up to the largest you can cope with, sell all your cargo, hit afterburners coming out of the gate as you shift to ShiftW (if you hit ShiftW immediately you slow down), watch the angles and you can be ahead out of the first gate. Regardless, he always screws up about halfway through, so at that point all you have to do is not miss a gate.
13."How do I get to the Monkey/Robot planets?"
14."How do I get to the Omicron systems?"
15."where is the Hispania?"
see Corsairs
16."where is ____ base?"(look in the base/planets list on the main page)
17."where is planet ____?"(look in the base/planets list on the main page)
18."where can I find the ____ wreck?"(look in the wrecks list on the main page)
19."how can I take screenshots?"
20."How can I post screenshots?"
21. "How can I mount weapons without selling/buying them?"
22. "Can I get back to Sol?"
23. Why didn't they finish the radar and other items that are in the .ini files?
24. Which characters were rendered in Poser with genitals and which were not (a true sign of sloppy finish work, they should all have used the same filter)?
25. What other signs of fast finish out are present (which robots are repeaters, for example)?
26. What is an easy trade route that nets ok money?
Diamonds from berlin to new tokyo, niobium from new tokyo to the ring in berlin system: 215,000 credits in my anubis (SP) in 15 min.
Of course the easy money run is from the source of alien organisms to the research station -- one station buy, jump, one station sell. But that's not fun.
There are other routes, most of which involve drugs or paying attention.
That way, instead of the search system (arghhhh), people could find it and if you wanted to flame someone, it would be easy to link to the answer.
