In the stock Oolite game the first ship I would normally upgrade to from a Cobra, as a trader, would be a Python.
Pythons start around 200K credits. At the moment with trade-in, I have around 160K credits.
Is there another ship, OXP or otherwise that would fit in between the Cobra and Python? I was thinking the Coluba, but that's priced starting at 327K credits.
Best ship to upgrade to from Cobra?

Tanker from Far Arm shis and Porcupine & Python Courier from Z-ships come immediately to mind...
...and keep it under lightspeed!

Tanker looks about right, and the price is about right too. Far Arm Ships installed, but not Z-Ships. I remember hating Asp Explorers (Z-Ships) from the ST version of Elite!Zieman wrote:Tanker from Far Arm shis and Porcupine & Python Courier from Z-ships come immediately to mind...

I recommend them - nicely balanced, no uber-nothing.
