I first started playing before we got space legs. Though, I only logged around 50 hours. I played solo. Spending the vast majority of my time exploring with the FSS. Not moving far from the starting station.

My memory is awful. I made a new save. Completed the opening and then proceeded to finish the entirety of the first tab in training.

So, as for the reason I'm keeping this post.

I'm looking for any advice and tips you might have. Currently I'm struggling most with navigation both in ship and on foot. As well as keeping track of everything.

Although I know than welcome any advice and tips no matter what it's concerning. Even if it's something mentioned in the tutorials and training that didn't click for you until later.

Like the data scanning training for the SRV. I was there for ages trying to figure it out. All because the scanner doesn't show up on the hard points like it would in the ship training.

Do the tutorials. Spend some time in the newbie zone, it's a fairly friendly place.

Learn to dock manually. Practice in one of the tutorial missions for this as much as needed.

Stick to learning to fly first, the on-foot stuff can come later.

Lastly, always follow rule #1, never fly without a rebuy!
