99 now but it just means you have a heluva a lot of cash. Anything over 38 in a fully kitted VHF means you have 1.2mil. So until the level requirements change from 1 to 38 its pointless atm.

*Again wishes they let you fly the bigger ships but only at a really high level*

Well it would at least give you a reason for trying to get to lvl 50 or something

Level 62 is a fully kitted out Eagle plus 40 million.
Level 61 is " plus about 36 million.
Level 60 is " plus about 33 million.

Looks like about 8 or 10% value increase per level,
which would mean level 72 is 85 (@ 8%) or 106 million (@ 10%)
and level 99 would be in the 700 (@ 8%) or 1400 million (@ 10%) range.

1400 million is impossible unless the money bug is fixed. If you get 1 billion credtis or higher, your credits revert to 0. This isnt simply you have money you can spend but the game cant read it, you lose ALL cash you have.

You sure it's exactly one billion? That sounds awful stupid from a programmer's perspective, because it implys they had full knowledge of the limitation.

A 32-bit signed integer can represent positive integers up to 2,147,483,647. Normally when you add one (1) to the number above, the variable will overflow and become -2,147,483,648.

If the value "overflows" at exactly one billion, that implies that the programmer wrote in a limiter specifically, and that it is BROKEN. It should limit, not cause an overflow.

Yeah, but bear in mind that this is Microsoft...

No, it's Digital Anvil. Why do people always assume that because it has the words "Microsoft" on the box that it was made by them?

And that's incorrect about needing ~105 million for level 72, I have 135 million and a decked out Eagle on Elite and I'm still 72.

How much more Microsoft do you need before it's a Microsoft product?

Except for the fact that the people who actually coded the game are Digital Anvil employees, you are basically right. <rolls eyes>

Actually the max is 999,999,999 and it wont go higher, i know, i modded the reward for the first mission to be that much and then i tried to sell my cargo full of water, didnt work. just stayed at 999,999,999

it most likely goes past that number but jsut dosnt show up on the system any higher than 9999999 or watever the max was

How in the H---lll do you get 135,000,000. You must be obssessed. <--- Not meant as an insult.

Do you just do missions or did you find a niche?
I found a niche, but it would still take a long time to make 135,000,000

I am obsessed. 504 hours logged on my main character on Elite, and being the leader of the NEO clan gives one certain monetary benefits, considering our tolls on systems.

Oh, and I've done about 590 missions, total.

You wouldn't mind if I did a Masters thesis about you, would you?
