Figure out where you can get those minerals before taking the mission and how close they are to your bread and butter runs. I have a tobacco run that nets 75k, then berylium, that nets 150k then back to the starting point with marine equipment that nets 80k. This takes about 40 minutes since I upgraded FSD and can now jump19.5ly with 100t unarmed but finally shielded Lakon 6. Got tired being rear ended in the spacestation. I've found a good supply of minerals on Kohl Station in the Liaedin system. It's one jump out of my way when doing my triangle. I've now got a 2mill lakon 6 and 3 mil in the bank and looking to arm my Lakon 6 to the point where I can go back online and defend myself from pirates. Solo get's boring. Any tips on best weapons mix for the Lakon 6.
Another lesson learned, free this time. I finally bought a shield generator for my Lakon 6. 100t gold in the cargo hold. I get transported to the flightdeck for a launch. My engine does not start. Ok, must be a bug(nope). So, I save the game, and restart. Next thing I know is I'm outside of the station, floating in space, engines off and losing cabin presure fast. I'm pissed, 800 thousand in gold plus the insurance premium on the hull are about to be vaporized. Think, what might be the problem, 2 minutes before I am out of air. What's different? The shield generator! Turned the shield generator off on the right module screen...30 seconds left before ejection. It worked! The shield generator was too much for the engines. Upgraded the engines and alls well.
