Level 18 should be at the end of the storyline, someone chime in if I'm wrong here, like you need an invitation. If you havn't modded your game, try docking and taking on a small mission at the bar, if you have finished the storyline then your next level will be credits no matter what it says about requirment being a mission. Try the dock and bar thing it worked for me. If all else fails and nobody has a better idea go back one saved level and try again. If you've modded the game your on your own I'm afraid - no clue.

If you throw enough mud ..some's gonna stick.

After lvl 17 it tells you how much more you need as opposed to how much you have.

The most useless & misnamed weapons in FreeLancer: StarKiller & SunSlayer Torpedos. You have been warned! ;P

What does it say in the level requirement bit on the player rep. screen.

if it says mission and your have already completed the story line then its messed up because i got that on lvl 25 but there arn't any more story missions after you take out the nomads. i gave up trying to lvl up because i couldn't what ever i did.

if it has a number in the lvl requirements then just keep doing bar missions till you lvl up.

I just took any mission I could find and it moved me up. I never got stuck on any levels. Wonder if some folks have a Nomad bug in their system ...

ok...no need to worry...this is the most common bug in freelancer (do a search for "common bug" and I bet you find at least 10 threads like this!)

the simple answer is just to keep playing....play, play, play and play some more. It always irons itself out. Earn as much money as possible, whether that be through missions in bars or through trading or even pirating. Just keep playing. I promise you it will sort itself.

EDIT: after examining your question again, I'm wondering...you do realise that after the storyline is complete, the credits that are required for the next mission count DOWN rather than appearing as a target figure, don't you? well they do! If it says an amount of credits to reach for next level, keep earning and watch that amount drop to 0 - at which point you will level. That answer your question?

Hope that helps!

It goes up to about lvl35... or is it 38... it was so long ago that I've forgotten, anyway, it'll just say MAX LEVEL.
