I keep taking trading mission, and end up paying fines due to the fact that on arrival in the system, I cannot find the delivery point: example Coelho Oasis Kongen (Empire territory. I have looked it up here, using search, and it is described in detail, but I cannot find it in the star system....are there location that exist, but which are not shown on the system maps???

Is the system unexplored? It is possible that you need a discovery scanner to scan the system

I'm unsure if you need a discovery scanner, the stations shown up in transactions

As Biliskner has advised, on arrival in the target system find and scan the Nav Beacon (It's always quite close to the star). Your on-board navcom will then be updated with the details of the system. Don't hang about too long, though, as sometimes the beacons attract pilots who would like to separate you from your cargo...

Alternatively you can often purchase exploration data by clicking on the icon in the Galmap. This is usually only a few hundred credits.

When he says scan the nav beacon, all you have to do is target it and let the ship systems scan it automatically. I was confused when they first introduced this function and it took me a bit of time before I had to do the face palm thing and realized I didn't actually have to "scan" the nav beacon with some mysterious sensor suite that I had no knowledge of....I know, I am a bit slow at times.

They're likely gearing up to invade the event on the 29th. I have no idea for certain but I'm pretty sure the SDC ain't dead. No matter how many people want it...

Haha I like the SDC.  Livens up the game.    open is way to safe right now.   I D-rated my beluga and have been flying in open risk free for a week now in quincy.    That shouldn't happen.

Edit* I mean I shouldn't be able to get away with a d rated newbie build. Open should be dangerous enough that i should at least feel like I should put some money into my girl haha.

Would certainly allow them to get pretty close to her though should they change their minds...

Bollocks. From what I hear they pledged to support whomever will reduce the risk of them being shot at by anyone who could actually beat them.

Agreed. Or just mind-fuck the community by staying true to their word.
