Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these "photosensitive epileptic seizures" while watching video games. These seizures may have variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. [. . . ] These options allow your ship to automatically chart routes for destinations within your system that may involve multiple Trade Lane jumps. SET WAY POINTS Creates a selectable target that will appear as a purple diamond onscreen. NOTE: You may erase set paths and way points by returning to the Nav Map and clicking the Clear Best Path or Clear Way Point icons. See Section 5 for more information on the Nav Map. SECTION 3 PAGE 18 PAGE 19 SECTION 3 3 Jump Gates and Trade Lanes With proper clearance, LSF pilots may traverse large distances quickly using Trade Lanes (for intrasystem travel) and Jump Gates (for intersystem travel). Trade Lane Use the Dock maneuver with a Trade Lane to travel quickly between planets, stations, and other objects within a system. Click the Free Flight icon to manually exit a Trade Lane at any point. Jump Gate Use the Dock maneuver with a Jump Gate to travel distances greater than Trade Lanes can accommodate. Jump Gates are the only means that allow travel between star systems.

The LSF won't discuss `em because Jump Holes occur naturally all over the place--it might cut into Liberty's mighty Jump Gate industry.

The program has two basic combat components: offensive and defensive strategies. Offensive Strategies Energy-based weapons, missiles, and torpedoes are among a pilot's offensive weapon choices. Outfit your craft with the best weaponry you can afford, but always check the specs before committing to any purchase. As we shall see, certain situations call for certain types of weapons. Energy-Based Weapons Energy-based weaponry is the mainstay of any LSF pilot's arsenal. Unlike missiles and mines, these weapons utilize your craft's power plant to regenerate. Right-click to fire them, but be mindful of the variation between types. For instance, plasma weapons have a low refire rate but high damage potential, while the opposite is true for lasers. These weapons also vary in energy consumption and range of effectiveness. Missiles and Torpedoes MISSILES Pilots should purchase missiles from an equipment dealer as soon as possible. Missiles must be used sparingly, but along with torpedoes, they are among the most lethal components of your arsenal. Homing missiles are better suited for faster-moving targets, but have less destructive capability than standard missiles overall. TORPEDOES Torpedoes are capable of creating immense amounts of damage, but their slow speed makes them somewhat vulnerable to enemy fire. Select a torpedo from your Weapons List, and then right-click to fire or simply press SHIFT+Q. SECTION 4 PAGE 24 PAGE 25 SECTION 4 Cruise Disruptors Color Coding Your ship automatically identifies potential targets with colored brackets (onscreen targets) and arrows (offscreen targets), and colored text in the Contact List. This allows you to distinguish enemies, friendlies, and neutrals at a glance. Green = friendly White = neutral Red = hostile Yellow = communicating ship or station (in the Contact List, communication is represented by a "talking head" icon) Pink = players within your group (Multiplayer Mode) Purple = players outside your group (Multiplayer Mode) As an actual weapon, cruise disruptors do minimal damage. They are instead designed to disrupt the cruise engines of an enemy vessel, thus rendering it much more vulnerable to attack. [. . . ] This opens a table that automatically presents a list of servers your system can access via LAN or Internet. To connect to a Freelancer server 1.
