Yeah unlocks after you get the PHQ in a previous game.

It's a good starting point for a new game. You get a M trader an S fighter and a useless station to tear down and sell for scrap for early liquidity.

you can also just expand the station to something more profitable.

Good bugs: They list one of the mining ships (they don't specify if it is the mineral or gas version). But give you a regular M trader instead.

Bad bugs: They tease you with the idea of fancy economic software, but it's a no show.

Slapfight: When worldgen gives your fast track trader quickstart a 2 piloting M trader pilot who can't autotrade.

Which is hilarious be it deliberate or accident. Especially if deliberate, because that would mean the devs think a single 3 star pilot is worth more than a free space station and M trader combined.

"We can't just hand the players things on a silver platter!"
"You gave me a free space station, and I wouldn't be asking about this if you didn't throw in a free M trader on top. I'll trade you the space station for a proper pilot, that sound good?"
"...Well, you see... *leaps out window*"

Aw ♥♥♥♥, I almost choked on my french toast for how on point to X4's AI that was.

On a lighter note. I think it's adorable that playing the shorty short teladi start makes your camera angle shorter walking around.

you do know the AI will head for the building Icon if you off set your building so the icon is not in the middle of the station they will not ram the station at least that is what I have seen on my game play.

Ah yes. Once more "The dumb AI is just fine if you bend over backwards to accomodate it! (except where even that doesn't work)"

For example. Honest question. In vanilla unmodded,order all NPC stations to adjust accordingly? And even if there were such a thing to slowly by hand edit every NPC station in known space, how will that help the AI in cases like "AI built stations in radioactive zones" where perfect docking approach still results in the death of NPCs?
