New, a bit overwhelmed, but interested in learning

Okay guys, thanks again. I'm going to just fly around for a bit then, and see what I can see.

Hi Mike,

I joined a week ago after playing Elite some 30+ years back. The thing most find at the start is docking without a docking computer (you will need some decent trade runs to buy one) and blowing up on entering. I found by adding the OXP 'Griffs Station bundle & Griffs Shipset' made everything much detailed and clearer & I didn't crash once.

A week on trying to remember things & now have a well equipped Cobra with 15,000 credits and 11 kills under my belt.

Very addictive game - enjoy it at whatever speed you want.

To make the manual docking more rewarding you could install my  Safe Docking OXP (requires  Galcop Rewards OXP) which will reward you for docking "safely" and penalise you for bad docking.
