General beginners informtaion for out of game play (menu screens)

1. When you first log in: the first screen you will be at the server select screen. Pick the server that is closest to your country and language. (you can pick global if you'd like to).
2. You will then go to a screen that shows some information such as breaking news and high scores. at the top there is tabs that say: Home, Hanger, Trade, Laboratory, Clan, Credits, Quests, and Help. You will probably use Hanger and Quests the most. Also on the screen you will see a button that says "Start" and has a picture of a ship, if you click this then you will open another window and you will load up the game.
   
3. you can simply click on the other window to open it up again (the menu screens). The Hanger is probably the most important tab and contains everything than you can use to upgrade your ship: Lasers, engines, missiles, ammunition, drones, etc.
4. One thing that you will need to know about the Hanger is that some of the things that you can purchase can only be bought using Uridium which can be hard to come by in large quantities. These items are called Elite items
   
5. As you go through the the Credits menu you will find that you can choose multiple options that let you buy Uridium. You use real money to do this. You can also upgrade your account which makes your account have slight advantages to it. You can find these advantages on the website.
