Played for about two hours yesterday, got my exosuit up to 43 slots. Just five more to go!
I also found a planet with those ambupearl or whatever they're called, so I farmed a bit of that and how have about 2 million units. Small beans compared to others and their massive fortunes, but it's the most I've had! I've been hunting on my planet for drop pods and pearls. One planet had a ton of aquaspheres, so I spent some time farming that, but then I went to the other and found the pearls. I think in this sector, I'm getting more for the pearls than the spheres.
My goal tonight is to max out my exosuit, and then go ship hunting. A trader had one with 24 slots (my current ship has only 19), but I was about 100K short of being able to buy it! I figured by the time I was ready to buy a ship, I'd have more money saved up. I also stripped a crashed ship of its goods, which I'll do every time I come across one.
I also took on 5 pirates in my poorly defended ship and came out on top. It was a fun (and profitable!) session last night. Can't wait for tonight!
