I need help with the basic's of geting the ship off the ground, into the atomsphere, and through space. (R-41 Starchaser Charon 11)

First you need to enter cockpit (if you don't see "Enter Cockpit" under Control on the right hand side below your avatar, go to "Position" and move until you reach the cockpit, then Enter)
Once in the Cockpit page, hit the Travel button


Umm, that's as far as ah can take you going from memory alone (currently traveling through Hyper so can't refresh the steps)

Getting to orbit is not the most intuitive of steps. After hitting travel, the default option is the city screen (or whatever level you are at - right now it should be city), which includes the Ascend button to get you to atmosphere. However, to get to obit you'll need to go to the Planet screen once you arrive at the atmosphere level.

Your faction should be able to provide you with further piloting help, or more in-depth instructions than those given by Tiali and I.

Thanks you two, be in peace and avoid the Empire! Join or support the NR.

Thank you all for viewing the post. I hope this will help you new people like me.
