After I did like 2 Scouting Missions, it seems they dropped out of rotation until I did a combat mission?

That shouldn’t happen. Still, I’ll do some test-runs on my end to see if I can observe this oddity myself.

Also, how many credits do I need for Sector 14?

Unlocking sectors/planets is not a matter of the player’s credit balance. It’s a matter of clearing story missions. I believe the in-game map gives precedence to standard missions in regards to it’s display, though, it’s also true that players don’t “start” with a story mission either. It has to be found among the sectors/planets that are initially available.

This decision of having the player find the game’s story mission arc on their own might be clinging to it’s Wing Commander - Privateer inspiration too closely for it’s own good.

Whoops, I mean. How much money do I need to clear the:
> "probably final" story mission that had a ?Crd requirement as listed on the map screen.

I now have 10342 and the Bar still isn't letting me go on?

I was trying to avoid spoilers. Sorry!

Maybe I just sucked at reading mission descriptions until later on! Replicating it myself and sending you the save shouldn't be too hard, but I've got stuff to do... So... good luck?

As far as the Scouting missions ceasing to be generated are concerned, I ran the game on two separate occasions. The first time, they showed up often enough. The second time, they maybe started showing up again after choosing “Reject”? I’m inclined to believe it’s a weird case of RNG.

On the other note, you can review mission details with the “Recall Current Mission” command, accessible from the Explore->Mission Computer menu on planets.

There isn’t a good spoiler system on this platform, so I dare not speak too much more on this matter. However, if you’re on the mission I think you’re on, there should be a jump-gate in the vicinity of Remata in Nav 14 that you can access.

Yep! I've made it to Remata, but can't continue on. All I know is that I need "extra cash", and I can buy the 4th tier of equipment from the Ship Outfitter and listening to the Bar doesn't give me any leads.

EDIT: Am I not supposed to scrap my upgrades for cash? The outfitter used to highlight my name in Red if I downgraded too much, but now it stopped doing that?

If I try to use the brightly colored gate that doesn't look like all the other gates I've been using, I just get told that something's missing.

Here's a save in case none of that info helps:

Okay, you weren’t on the mission I thought you were on, but, a completely different one! That’s my misunderstanding of your situation.

That aside, I’ll be perfectly frank with you. The mission you’re looking to get needs 20000 credits in your account. I, therefore, cannot recommend selling off your equipment just yet. How much of that you’ll actually need to clear the mission is up to you, as per the story mission on Nav 4. However, that’s the bare minimum balance.

Thanks for being frank! Wow, that's a lot more than I would've called Extra Cash! Well, it's not hard when I can get 1K just rerolling until I get Scouting missions for going across the whole of the Nav map!
