Hints:
- There's usually no hurry to end many of the missions, even after you've accomplished all the objectives. Take the time to have your Workers collect all the remaining resources, because you can use them in the next mission.
- Use time compression to speed the harvest.
- Fighters are crucial early in the game to defend against other fighters; you can even take out smaller capital ships by swarming them with enough fighters.
- In the later part of the game, concentrate on building more powerful capital ships,and use multigun frigates to protect them against enemy fighters.
- Use the sensor manager to give orders. You don't need to drop into 3D mode until the fireworks start. Then sit back and enjoy the show.

Cheat Code for Money:
Start the game and save it at the start. Exit the game and find the savegame directory. Use a Hex editor and look in the save game for the hex value "D0 07". I found this value at A2844. Change the 07 to FF and you now have over 65000 credits to with what you wish.

Ship Units:
Alter game files at your own risk and always make backups. You'll need a HEX
editor for this hack.

- Save a new Game
- Open the save game file in a HEX editor
- Search for this string: D0 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 64 00 00 00 0E 00
- Hex 64 = 100 and Hex 0E =14
- This represents your: Total Ship Units/Ship Units used
- Change the 64 00 to B0 04
- You now have 1200 SU’s
- Hex D0 07 = 2000 RU’s
- Change D0 07 to FF FF
- You now have 65,535 RU’s

Continue playing with carrier:
If you get destroyed, but still have a carrier, you will be able to keep playing. Disadvantages are: you will be unable to research; you cannot build anything beyond frigates; and your "support units" will go down to approximately 192. However, you can continue to destroy your opponent.
