Rules of the Game

As the owner of a space transporter you have the task of carrying out as many freight orders as possible. You transport goods such as gold, iron ore, diamonds or fuel between planets and space stations or space ships.

You receive the contract from a central freight office. However, there are at most only as many contracts as players.

In general you will be competing with your fellow players for the freight. For, as the freight is pulled along on a cable behind the space ships, the other players can also dock onto the goods during transport and try to fulfil the contract.

Points

Only the player who carries out the contract gets points. Therefore each player will try to get rid of the others, be it by means of skilful navigation or by means of setting a goody.

To make things more difficult, involved in all actions is the fact that you have to maneuver skillfully around obstacles with your space ship and of course your freight, as in a collision your freight is either lost or your space ship damaged.

Navigation

For each action, what must be taken into account is that gravitation exists on the home planets. This will decrease continuously the further thefreight transporter moves away from the planet and vice-versa. Without thrust the space ship will inevitably be pulled back to the planet and can be damaged in a crash.
