You finally decide on the life of a Miner, working for yourself to earn a keep in the wide area of space known as Evochron. It's not the fastest way to earn money but it's respectable and you like that.
The first thing your decide to do is open your inventory panel in your flight screen and look around it.
You can see all your holdings on that single screen and it is a pretty sobering thought. You have spent a lot of money getting set up and now you only have 40,000 credits to your name, the ship and the basic kit they installed for you. You think about buying a few items that might come in handy, for certain you want a Mining/Tractor beam, or you won't be able to pick up the ore's from the asteroids, planets and rings you are going to mine. Then you look on your navigation map and zoom out a little to look for a likely looking asteroid field. Once you find it you select the jump and leave the station easing into piloting for the first since you left the academy. You set your autopilot and jump away using your basic Fulcrum drive to get there. Once there you find your are surronded by asteroids and realise you don't really know what to do.
After a few false tries you realise you have to be within about 140 of an asteroid and you find the way to toggle the mining beam on, then you sit back and watch the ore flow into your cargo bays ready to travel back and sell your first load of cargo for almost 100% profit.
