IDIOT'S GUIDE TO FED2
FINDING YOUR WAY
CUSTOMS SEARCHES
The Galactic Administration is worried about smugglers and other nefarious types who attempt to transport illicit cargoes around the Solar System. To prevent such lawlessness, the customs service patrols the interplanetary wastes with the intent to stop and search vessels. Should you be intercepted by a customs cutter, you will be escorted off the main routes to a quiet section of Sol space, and such a search will be carried out.
Not wishing to inconvenience law-abiding citizens, the very nice customs officers will, on completion of their search, top up your fuel tank for you. They will also notify Armstrong Cuthbert that you have been delayed, so that if you are carrying cargo you will be given more time to complete the delivery.
If you find the attention of the gentlemen from customs a real nuisance, you can use a slithy to bribe one of the officers to give you an exemption certificate which will keep them off your back for 31 days. Visit the customs shed on Earth to obtain this valuable bit of paperwork - the command is 'BRIBE MANAGER'.
