I just sat here and typed it out Bill. I did it once, hit the wrong key and lost it all. Then I had to sit backdown a redo it all again.
All of them were just written down on a sheet of paper... what a mess. That's why I made that form, just it make it a bit simpler. Just print it out. But looking at it now there needs to be a way to do multiple forms on one 8x11 sheet of paper and still have room to write things down. Printed out Landscape style might work. You could get maybe six missions on one page, which would be great.

Awesome! man, you must really get into this Gary...
I have an Apple iMac computer with a huge 24" screen plus outer edge structure, with the lower area being a strip of aluminum. That is brilliant for hanging all of my yellow Post-Its on, lol... One, first one, is the 'last save' numbers, from 1 thru 7. Every time I save, I write down the save number. In the past, I have lost my save points a few times by accidentally hitting the arrow keys. I learned later I could look at the dates and times for the last save, but at the time, I didnt know, so I log my saves now. Seems faster.
I had started a book on all sectors, so I could look up which sectors had what, and know where to go for all these supplies, etc.. I gave that up. It was a pain.
I have thought of doing an Apple App that would have all ships in it, so I could find out which ships are which when doing purchases, etc. That would be nice.. Maybe have other things in it like systems that have which wares, etc....

I started writing all the info down on sectors to.... it's a royal PITA. Same with cargo in my ships. LOL
On the beaming in containers.... open cargo bay door(s) and use the key you assign to Beam In Containers. Wait until the nosie you here is finished, then close the dam door. LOL You'll have what you beamed in in the hold, safe and sound. Then you can install it to use it if it's a missle, ammo, or stuff like that.
I just did 6 more missions, 5 good but failed at one. Still made 5 million tho.
And I got some cool screenshots of some of these pirates too. I'l post it all tomorrow.

And I got some cool screenshots of some of these pirates too. I'l post it all tomorrow.eeeks.. Tonight, I am flying around looking for biz and here is this goofy freighter trying to fight me!
He fires on my super Nemesis, it returns fire as it is watching over me as I prep a freighter. A police ship comes up, launches a missle, and destroys my Nemesis! I restart the sim and this time I move all ships out of the sector so he cannot fire at us. I load up my freighter and move out and evade fire. He isnt a pirate, so whats the use..
now... the funny part..
I was to watch him yesterday. Same guy, same ship, little lizzard that dreams of 'proffffffffffffffffffitzzzz'... Well, he got away. Group that hired me to watch him writes me off. But this freak still comes after me, saying, are you following me!? then fires at me, and police get involved...
So, I am back home at Argon Prime and there he is, firing at me.. I fire back at 3rd version armament from my Heavy Nemesis. I almost render him dead, gonzo... But a police argonian cruiser gets into it, firing at me to protect the goofball.. so I emergency hyper jump...
I get to the next sector over and think. Here I am running from home from a noooot case. Why? hmm.... I hyper jump back into Argon Prime, locate said freigher. I activate all eight guns, online... I come up... 25 clicks... 15 clicks.. 10 clicks... 5 clicks.. 'Target is in range'... I squeeze the trigger twice. Eight vollies of heavy plasma launch in two clean waves. They arc to the target. The super freighter goes up in a very nice ball of flames...
I shoot past it, hearing an alert that a police Argonian cruiser is after me. I hyper jump to Home of Light. Wheww.... Revenge. No more problems...
nope...
Now the Argon police shoot down my Com Sat in Ringo Moon. They attack a freighter of mine in Argon Prime. I am being stocked by my own people and I hold the rank of Knight of Argon..
Woooooooooooots up with them??????????? lol....
I tried clearing myself, landed at the free Argon space port.. Nada.. Not even the police ships answer my hails..
I dont know what to do. I can still dock at the Argon stations, but dang... How do you repair things with your own poeple?
lol....

Bill, go into where it shows Friends and Foes. Change Argon to Friends as I believe...... cause you eliminated the noooot case..... you are now listed as a Foe. Once changed you should be ok again.
IIRC that's how I got out of hot water with the Argons when I took a Mission to destroy a 2 ship convoy... it was 2 Argon ships. I had the same problem... all Friendlies showed in red and were after me with all guns blazing.
And be very leary of those Snake eyes asking you to go on a Mission destroy a convoy. Usually it's a Pirate and you'll be shooting at Friendlies.

Bill, I've found the correct path to "Forgiveness".
Pilot Info/Advanced/Global Commands. If any have been changed to Foe, change back to Friend. Then click on "Transmit To All Reachable Properties". If you have to change back to Fiends, just click that anyways. You will not be an outcast, you'll be ok. :d
If you are in the middle of a fight and it changes, get that done as fast as you can to change your status. Or, get the hell out of that sector ASP, hide, or whatever it takes and do it.

Thanks Gary!
Will do.
I did check the status and I am good. No more attacks from the police. :d
I went out again on a short volley of job flights. I found a couple of nice taxi runs. I couldnt believe it. It said it was a hard run to accomplish, but dang, it was so easy. I made 8 million on it. I scanned some asteroids and did some cartography chip shipments. (Those are difficult.. right down to the second).
I have been learning to use the 'Docking Computer' cheat/helper. I hyper jump to a sector, find the station and target it, aim my ship to it and go to full throttle, hit J to warp to the station, hold my fingers on Shift and Dock, and just before I pass or 'impact' with the station, I hit Shift-D and BING! I am docked instantaneously, lolololol.... Really freaks me out, but hay, thats technology for you. :d
I just hope the game doesnt use my good times to gauge how fast shipments must be delivered, as that would cause my time requirements to be even faster and faster, so I would be shooting myself in the foot, lol..
Personal pilot budget now up to 307 million credits. Headquarters is seperate, over 200 million.
Before I signed off, I checked through my fleet and found I owned a Laser Tower. Hmm.... I went to check it out and its this 'thing' docked at a station, sort of like a wierd bullet without skin, just structure. You cant get in it to fly it. All automatic. I sent it to Ceo's Buckzoid, my former backup station zone. Odd thing. I wonder what its potential is? Is it one powerful weapon against bad guys??? I must have captured it somehow.

Nice job Bill. 
Hey BTW... can ya spare a few credits? 
Those taxi runs at 8 mil ain't nuthin to sneeze about either. But for relaxation ya gotta go kill some Yaki, Xenon and Kha. Talk about edge of the seat action......
Hint, use your Attack Computer. Second time you click on an enemy ship it comes up as Auto Attack..... try it you'll like it.

I sold the Blastclaw Bill and got 1.4 million for it. Wasn't fast enough to keep up with me, and too expensive to upgrade with all it needed. It was a barebones ship, nothing in it but the engine and cockpit.
Edit...
My mistake... I messed up figuring my account, I got 2,727,913credits for the Blastclaw. I'd added some upgrades I'd forgotten about before the sale.
Now if I could find claimable Imperiums, I'd grab a couple. I've been looking for that Firefly but haven't found it yet.

Taxi and freight, freight and taxi, and a rare scuffle now and then.
Nothing to write home to Mom about.
Those Duke ships have always piqued my curiosity........

the pilot, whose name was Daisy, warned me off.....threatening to sic her brothers on me despite my superior force. :isadizzy:

It was my birthday several weeks ago and several of my commanders got me quite tipsy.
We ended up at an Argon House of Argasm.
(Treasure Chest sector, first asteroid on the left if you're coming thru the east gate).
Oh my goodness!!
The bar took up the entire right side (expensive!),
and AT LEAST 100 VERY lovely creatures sat at tables on the left.
They would take turns coming up to the bar and asking if you'd buy them a drink (while posing and modeling their various costumes....or lack of.
I decided on a two-for-one special:
