I can't get to the end game map - I'm stuck on planet 10 because astrox commander always spawn on planet 9. In the warp gate to planet 11 it says it requires a key from astrox commander. There are a total of 21 planet in my game (last one named something (20))
pirate resetting problem: I am always stuck in planet 9 if I reset pirates in the first planet. Astrox commanded is spawned after the hiver officier is killed in planet 9. From there on no officiers are spawned in the later planetes.
I am not sure if this is intended - earning money is way too easy in this game. In my game I have nearby docks that sell Heavy fuel cell. One of them has price modifier 1.6470 the other 0.7970. I have 1720 cargo space, this converts to (1.6470-0.7970)*1250*1720 = 1.8 million per trip. I did it couple of times now I have 8 million credits.
regen the galaxy under options, it will update your old save game with all the new stuff, lose nothing.
