I learned you can quick-dock tradelanes recently. F3 towards them, and your ship will make a beeline for the middle of the green ring. Before you get there, go to Free Flight (so your cruise stays operational) and right before you get to the ring, hit F3. After only a moment's delay, off you go!
I recently learned you could go under the Van Rohe belt to avoid being fatally irradiated. This seems like cheateriness to me though.
a funny thing in disco is cruise on zero speed. Any way maybe some one mention it. But i repeat it again .
For that set keys for starf up and starf down in option menu. Then go on cruise then prees sturf up key or sturf down key. Then press z key for engine kill just once!.mean while you must keep pushing starf up or sturf down key befor and after the z key.
Cruise on zero speed is for unknown use maybe a bug. But its kind of fun:)
Okay okay wait a minute... We have a barrel roll and a cockpit view? and also I never knew about engine kill for 4 years ( even then someone had to tell me) and even then I thought mines were stationary useless things until I ran through the campaign twice! :$
Never realized the barrel roll and weapon groups until semi-recently, but then again, only first started playing Freelancer about... 2 years ago, at the max.
