Thanx for all the warm welcomes. 8)

Just a short update for you all, I have successfully upgraded to version 1.72.2 and it is oh so much better! :D

As typical, I have one new question, though. When accepting a bounty hunting mission from an Anarchy bar, how do you find the victim? (I've travelled across Galaxy 3 to the system where my prey is supposed ot be, but I only managed to find them once and got blown to pieces, now I can't find them again and am spending hours just flying about in the system. Is there a set place in the programming where bounties can be found lurking?

Cheers,

Wigster.

Check the mission summary screen (F5-F5) for details of what missions and other ongoing activities you've got, umm, ongoing. It should give details of any current missions and objectives (deliveries etc).

Thanx. :D

The mission I'm talking about says I should assasinate someone in a fast Cobra Rapier. Now, I have flown to the system where they should be, but I just can't find my victim. I've spent the lats 3 days flying around looking for them, but to no avail.

Is there one common point where these assasination victims are often found?

Cheers,

Wigster.

No, they're just in system, around the space-lane.

I meant check the mission summary screen to confirm that you're looking in the right system, that you haven't reverted to a save game when that mission hadn't been accepted or something.

Just anywhere between "W" and "N". If you believe that the victim had a fight with other ships and left the route, you can jump away and back into the system.
