first of all, the thing of the robot that never stops annoy me, second, the first level is very hard (for the same thing of the robot that never stops), 2/5
another help to firewild33, i recomend to go FIRST to qubba and trade with alcohol because you buy it to 4 bucks and sell it in qubba for 22, you can easly avoid robbers, just go behind a caravan and teh robber will attack the bigger caravan, but you need to go with at least 5000 bucks
to anwer the question of "how do i make ships follow me?" go to the 3 blue ships screen, click select all the ships in the sector and follow under green alert, do that in every planet
Meercater: you get thar going to the buy section in any town, you sell it going to the sell section, go to diferents towns to make a profit buying and selling
