Hi. Is there a way to ensure that the grimey trader gives the most accurate and recent port location of a trader? So far he's shooting 1 outta 10 on accuracy for me. Does he lie on purpose? Does it havr to do with alignment? He was correct on a evil trader but he sucked at finding a good trader.

Also, what is the best way to protect your location? Currently I change my ships registry often. I also cloak each time when quitting for the day. Are these the best ways to remain "hidden"?
