At this point, stop paying extra and just pay the few credits automatically daily. After you pay your first loan completely, sign up for a new loan at a smaller amount (maybe 400 credits) – so you continue to gain credit score without worrying too much about making big payments every day.

But always keep at least 12 times your combined daily payment amount (loan payments + crew salaries) so you can fly for a week or two without getting a bad credit rating.

If you really have too much free time on your hands, pick the Sparrow.

And then it has only 1 passenger space and 15 cargo so running trade goods or taking odd jobs will take you forever plus a month to make any profits. It is too weak to be effective on its own so despite being in a “combat” ship you will want to avoid combat. The Sparrow is basically like “Extra Grind” mode. Even with bigger ships you’re still running the same trade routes, going in circles… which is fine if you want to play as a trade baron but my advice is to do the trading for a while and then switch to the middle of the shuttle guide from there. This method can be effective, but it is lengthy and repetitive. The Star Barge feels very grindy at first, you will be running trade goods in circles for quite a while. The second half is faster once you have enough ships and credits to go hunt ships on your own instead of waiting around to pick up scraps left by the local military when they fight pirates. The first half of this strategy is very slow… based on being a scavenger and salvaging disabled ships. The Shuttle has a slow/boring start-up, but if you can put up with periods where you are just waiting around for something to happen then it is the easiest way to increase your fleet size and gradually get into bigger ships. Check my table of contents and just jump to the section for whichever ship you felt like choosing.
