Um yeah. Didn't you?

Hidden Secret Playing Tip #1:

When in the spacedock, don't right-click on one of your components unless you want to sell it. I learned this the hard way. Luckily it was only a few minutes into the game, so I could start over.

i think the buy/sell price is the same if it hasn't been used, so if you accidently right-click on your cargo bay, no problem.

i was pretty sure your question's had nothing to do with the game without the demo.

Um, no. You lose money by selling a component and buying it back. That's why I restarted the game.

Ok, some help would be greatly appreciated...

I was playing the 3rd mission in the demo, a simple escort mission (yeah right!). I took my ship and met up with the "Baumont." I fought off many pirates, some were destroyed and I simply left some fleeing so I could follow the "Baumont." This goes on for awhile. Then, when time is up, with the completely uninjured "Baumont" directly in front of me, the screen pops up and says I did not protect the "Baumont" from destruction! WHAT?!!!

So, can anyone explain this? Is it a bug? Do I need to destroy every single pirate that appears on radar on an escort mission? Meaning, it's not just good enough to make sure the escorted ship remains alive? I'd really appreciate any insight into this. Thanks!

Don't know about that, since I never found the ship, but I have found you can let it die and still progress.

This thread died out pretty quick. Are there any resources out there on walkthroughs for guiding us less-intuitive players?

I bought my Terran Cruiser MkIII and have enlisted in Pirate Merc missions as well. Of course, I don't have an overall (non-timed) mission on my objectives menu, so I really don't know what I'm supposed to do. I've been running pirate merc and transport missions while exploring the map and opening up unlisted systems.

Any help on what I should (or shouldn't) be doing to get me moving along and triggering a world event would be just great. thanks!

Open up your events window and check the "show completed" box. Scroll til you find your Last mission for the terran contact- that will tell you where to go now that you've completed your mission.

As for the Beaumont mission, from the chatter Haynes was putting out, It sounded like the Beaumont was the bait, with the business end of the trap being you. Hence, the true goal is to wipe out the pirates, rather than just protect the Beaumont.

Most or all of the Guild missions read as protect missions, where the status of the attackers should be unimportant and only the survival of the protectee ship needs to be considered.
Unfortunately, as of this Version, the mission success trigger seems to be "Kill the enemies"

"Go to Yorkshire III upon completion" DOH!

Thanks for the tip on the 'show completed', I would have never have looked there!
