Newbie Mistakes;
Even if you give step by step instructions a few extra warnings can help prevent a disaster. I have made all these mistakes myself and teaching new players.
1. turn on interdictor generater on IDC. just type B Y. (make sure your not at computer prompt!! and dont from using other commands hit C B Y.)
2. Building or upgrading Beam transporter on a planet. From planet prompt
c= citadel b=beam u=upgrade y=yes (Now where the problem comes in is what prompy you are at,ie planet prompt cbuy, no problem, ie citadel prompt buy no problem. citiadel prompt cbuy BOOM, c=computer, b= self destruck u=ignored y=yes. your dead.
3. Dropping and taking up figs at base, sdt site or a sector used by corp. if you dont leave a corp fig someone may fuse.
4. Clear Limpets before going to base or sdt site.
5. Killing people and Blowing up ships is fun. Watch out for traps and corbo bombs.
6.Never give out Sector numbers over Fed com or SS. If it is nesacery to give out sectors over ss DON"T DO IT!!!!. if you are at the sector use: "my TA" which stands for T=corperate menu A= your location. If a ship is in the sector use ship number, ie sector 1234 and ship 23 is there say: "location is ship 23."
7. communication is the key, explain to the new player you do not know his/her skill level yet. you will break things down not to make them feel dumb, just to make sure they understand.
8.Although everyone plays to win, losing is part of the game. Having fun is most important.
9. Dont blow up planets with colonist on it.
10. just beacuse your red donesent mean you can kill the feds Captian Zyrain will nuke you.
11. Kill a Blue when your in an iss make sure you didnt go evil or below 1000 alignment. transfer out of ship asap, till alignment issue can be resolved.
if i think of more i will list them.
