1. whats the most money you have had in your account? Is there a money cap, can you get in the billions?
2. After only a few hours in the game I had the best Cargo bay I could find.. They ever get bigger than 5 slots of 25? I sure hope so! Would take the fun out of it having maxed out your shipping space in only a couple hours of game play...
3. There any crew members that can speed up mining extraction rates? Or upgraded mining beams that extract faster? Only crew members I have encountered are engineers and science officers.
4. I read that hired wingmen wont follow you into combat zone.. How do i know whats considered a combat zone? I was going to hire one to guard me while I ran freight.. but if they wont follow me into hostile territory whats the point? I flew into a sector right next to the beginning area and got my arse handed to me by five red ships.
5. What determines how many wingmen you can hire? this rank related?

1. I usually float around 100 millions, but then again, I'm more of an explorer than anything else. You can easily make billions, and are required to do so in order to reach legends rank
2. No, 5x 25 is the maximum you can get. But they say that quality beats quantity...
3. Science officers speed up extraction, and there are specialized mining beams that extract only metal, gold, diamonds or platinum from asteroids and planets. Also, you can deploy a mining probe with the deploy constructor
4. Warzones are labeled as such on the map. Check Talison, Cerulean or Sierra for a gate to their respective warzones.
5. 15 hard cap, and they require regular upkeep payments, just like your crewmembers.

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe.
If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.

1. 8 billion in Legends. I only stopped because I didn't really have anything to spend it on. With the knowledge from Legends I earned 1 billiob in Mercenary on day 1.
2. Yeah it's 5, would be cool if you could have more and sacrifice equipment/weapons slots but you earn more money trading in weapons and with the cargobay you can hold up to 13 of those.
3. You can have crew that increase weapon fire/recharge rate but I don't know if that speeds up mining. But I think you can build mining stations or order your wingmen to mine.
4. They won't go into warzones, they will fight for you and take orders.
5. I'm not sure but I remember in Legends I once built a fleer of about 15 (i think) ships...

Trade fulcrum torpedos, fuel converters, constructors, auto cm launchers, anti missile systems, or excaliburs between systems. Scout out to find two places, one that pays more, & one that sells for less.
But ya, if you run into me online i might have something in my cargo bay for you. I am Dies Irae
