Find the coordinates of the base you want to trade with, copy it. Go to your base page, go to the tape 'Trade route', enter the coordinates, click on calculate profits. You will see the costs, and profits of the proposed trade route. If you like it, click send, and wait for the other to accept.
Do outpost ships need to be escorted?
I think they cannot be attacked until you are level 10 - but I am not 100% certain. Better safe than sorry, I guess, if you have anything available?
Well, I still haven't finished Warp Drive yet or some of those hella expensive shipyards, so it's a moot point right now. But I was curious. Wraithy, did you use a corvette escort?
Not if you're beneath level 10.Quote:

I'm about 7 hours away. I'm going to destroy Random's entire galaxy for doing this to me.
Have the find the little fucker first but since he hit Timbuk as well I think we're all agreed that he needs to suffer.Quote:

Everyone should have a look in their solar system and see if this guy is in it. Ditto for anyone scouting other systems.
Maybe build a death star, just for the occasion? Bring him along and blow up is ancestor's world. Maybe not very original, but effective.
Minx, why do you only have 9 economy but 121 tech?
That's a trick question, I have 10 economy :mad: I was lost and turned my burgeoning utopia into a communist joke :cry:
Bitter was hit by Random this morning. This guy is really getting around.Quote:

There was something in the rules about occupation-trading. . .Quote:

Have you truly learned nothing from the Occupy movement? :o :(Quote:

That's enough. Just place it there, and it collects 10/hour, on the 30 minute mark
I had recyclers over them at the top of the hour, and the amount of debris hasn't gone down...
Or do they recycle only at x:30 of every hour? I assumed it was every 30 minutes. :o
Only at x.30 I think.
Only at x:30 definitely.
