This enables me to get a more 3D-like view of the sector for station placement. I put the satelite a bi out of the way to avoid accidents with the heavy trafic in the sector. When this is done I order the transport and Discoverer to head to Home of light, I also head there myself. I also order my Discoverer to pick up an advanced satelite to make placement easier. I order the transport to go to the Argon federal shipyard and buy 2 farms (M) and a complex construction kit. I have screenshots for the entire setup of a station, but I think I would rather write a guide on that subject, or even make a video.

This time however, I find it fairly quickly. The Argon supply Mammoth is in Argon prime, but I seem to have trouble tracking it down sometimes. When you build your first station, you need to either buy a transport for it for 28M credits or hire one. There’s also some demand for wheat in the sector. I frequently visit that sector and that’s where I buy most of the equipment for my trade ships. I decide to go for a complex consisting of 2 wheat farms in Home of light.

I will use my original mercury to supply the station while I use my Discoverer to do some other things.įor me first station I want a completely safe sector, with well-scouted surrounding sectors. Adding more trade ships is another option, but I decide to go with the station. I know from my last game that building a factory will cost more then you think, so I want at least this much before I consider it. After some trading and a few fraighter missions I finally got to 1.3 milion credits.
