Big Bug to Exploit!!!!!!!! Big Bucks!!!!!!!!

Post by FIRSTJAE »

I have found a method to earn millions of dollars without leaving the initial system. This method can be done anywhere with a good trade route.

No need to hack' n slash' the code. Might take a while to build up but even if you don't go to extremes you can easily earn many millions in a few hours play. :twisted:

I am sure somebody else must have discovered this because this exploitable flaw is quite obvious. :roll:

Any way. To the point. :wink:

The main problem with trading a commodity, is that the commodity is limited in quantity and slow to renew.

to fix this do as follows

1. Find a profitable route back and forth.
2. Trade in rare high profit items.
3. Buy said commodity and save.
4. go back to cargo and sell commodity back
(don't worry u don't loose any money)
5. Load the game u just saved and sell commodity again.
6.The base now has 2x initial amount of said commodity.

You can save and repeat as many times as you want.
Once u have enough to fill your cargo or when u run out of money, go to the other base and sell it. You can repeat the process there so that at both ends u have an infinite supply of rare large profit items.

Now u continue trading until u have made all the money u will ever need.

This is a pretty serious problem for any game so i expect the programmers will patch it up in the next version.

if u need money better hurry up.

A really simple way of editing the files for lots of money:

1) Buy the cheapest ship available
2) Buy 1 unit of every commodity available
3) Save your game
4) Edit the CSV file corresponding to the new ship in your saved game
5) Add 5 or 6 zeros to the quantity of each of the cargo items
6) Load your game
7) Sell all of your cargo

Congrats, your just multiplied your money by 100,000 - 1,000,000 times

If you spend 5000 credits, you now have 500 million or 5 billion credits (depending on the number of zeroes used).

Point of advice: Get rid of the new ship after doing this. It completely screws up the stats of the ship.
I've stopped playing. I'm waiting for a new release.

I've kicked the MMO habit for now, but if I maintain enough money for an EVE-Online subscription, I'll be gone again.

A Step Into Oblivion

Dreams of things that will never be,
Songs of thoughts only I can hear,
Leave me be to sleep forever,
To dream my dreams,
And sing my hymns,
Of things that will never be...
