Shoot the buoy to end the lesson. This Krait has a pulse laser like your own. It's not too much of a threat to your ship, but you should finish it quickly. Here's two more to take on. While fighting one, don't lose track of what the other is up to. If you split your fire between both, you won't do enough damage.
That's the basics done. It'll tear up your shields in no time if you let it. See if you can handle two at once. If that last fight was any trouble, though, maybe you'd be better stopping now by shooting the buoy to complete the lesson. This Krait is well-armed, well-equipped, and we've got a local escort pilot in the next simulator booth to fly it for us.
Your Cobra might still be a superior ship, but you'll have to make every shot count. If you fly like that, you might stand a chance when the pirates come for you. That's all we've got for combat training.
In this lesson, you'll learn the slow, safe way to dock. There are many shortcuts often taken by experienced pilots. As you can see, it rotates a few times every minute to provide cheap artificial gravity. There is a single docking bay, on the axis of rotation. For primary system stations this will always be on the side facing the planet - other stations may face in any direction. As you can see the docking bay is rectangular. The Cobra III is much wider than it is tall, so when you dock, you need to have the long axis of the bay as near to horizontal as possible.
You can rearm them later with the same key. The station will respond, giving you a docking deadline or if traffic is busy, requesting you wait " ;. You need to do two things to dock safely - come in straight down the line extending from the docking bay, and keep the bay horizontal. If you get into trouble, just turn around, back off to the buoy, and start over. If you can't see a wall, temporarily point your nose well past the walls you can see. Don't worry about the rotation until you're a kilometre or so out.
If you're too close, though, concentrate on getting the rotation right - your shields will bounce you in if you're reasonably close, but you just won't fit in sideways. It will get easier. Alternatively, if when feel ready, you can move on to the next lesson.
After the docking lesson we thought you might need a short break from flying. Try it now, then come back to the forward view before continuing. We have added a few extra items to your ship which you can inspect now. Check the screen again for an example. This displays your current cargo and a log of outstanding work contracts you have taken. It shows the nearby systems, and your current position is marked with a green cross.
A green circle shows the limits of your current witchspace fuel. An example of this has now been added to the nearby Leesti system. On this screen, they can be used to select a destination system. Most trade routes are between Agricultural and Industrial worlds. At higher TL systems, more equipment and ships will be available from stations. You are recommended to fly straight and level while the sequence is underway. Once the sequence is complete, you will travel through witchspace to your chosen destination.
This displays the wider region of space you are in, with your current position, witchspace range, and markers displayed as on the short range chart.
Try going to the chart and typing 'ti' to discover all systems beginning with 'ti', which will be highlighted with a green square. You can hold shift while pressing the direction keys to switch between possibilities. Post by Commander Otley » Mon Mar 21, pm. Post by Disembodied » Mon Mar 21, pm.
