Ok to bring it back on topic. I have found that using the afterburners while going into a jumpgate changes the max speed of the ship :twisted:

I have My nova at a max speed of over 5000 k..

There is a danger that it is very difficult to control :evil:

It is good for smashing into asteroids.

But the key is to put all the traders / transports up to 300-400 k. :roll:

Hope you find this of help.

Regards Lankspeed

Mate, that info is pure gold if it works!
What intriguing weapons and shields will you use to protect your trade ships and sectors from the Khaak when your not home? unless you can afford capital ships *and luck* its all for nothing, NOTHING! Mwaahhhhahaha
*(amendment for TC since all the good strategy and planning is no longer enough, you also need luck)*

It does work and thanx for letting me know the reason why I have been, on occaision exiting a gate faster than I can fly. now I understand the process I can put it to good use on those pesky cross 2 sectors in 11 mizura shuttle runs :D , BTW is there any way to consistantly maximise the effect or is it just random as I havent noticed any pattern as yet

The answer is just another question.

Yeah but he's just using that to get around, a 300-400k trader is cheating as it would reach destinations in 2 seconds, you probably wouldn't need more than 2 UTs to control the economy. But wow, 1304. Must be really really fun to strafe enemies in.

This may not be much or has already been mentioned, but when I started the "Humble Merchant" game - his Mercury has higher steering than what it's normal max is. Infact, when you dock to upgrade it's actually taking some off.

BPSG is great for polishing silverware, exposed metal surfaces, you name it.

A station near you looking a bit dull? Try buffing it up with a couple of bursts of PSG fire. It'l change colour in no time at all.
It was a woman who drove me to drink... you know I never went back and thanked her.

Don't try to outweird me, three-eyes. I get stranger things than you free with my breakfast cereal.

Doesn't work for me :( .

I fly my nova into the gate, just before i reach the gate i trigger boost extension and keep it held down while I'm through the gate...

I must be doing something wrong :o .

You are - it is the afterburner that does it not boost extensions :)
