			There are neither levels nor classes in UCGO. Every action you take, from firing a gun to tailoring a hat, will gradually improve the skill that it is associated with; irrespective of whether the attempt was successful. Each skill is rated from 0-130, and they increase in 0.5 point increments. You can have a total maximum of 800 skill points. Once you hit that limit you can choose to 'unlearn' some skills in order to raise others if you wish to do so. Don’t worry too much over your stats. The only times where you really need to look at them are when you're trying to hit specific requirements to use certain hardware. For instance: the MS-07 Gouf requires a Mobile Suit skill level of 3 and a CQB level of 15 to pilot. While you can pilot it without the proper skills, you won’t be able to do anything but walk around.

	/getoff - Get out of your current vehicle. If you're in a taxi, it just deletes it from ~~existance~~. If you're in a proper vehicle, it ejects you.

It's advisable to put down a bookmark at every hangar you find, even if you already have a fairly close-by default bookmark. This cuts down travel time dramatically, and allows you to go anywhere you've been before simply by parking at a hangar, transporting to your new location and getting back into your vehicle.		/mark - Bookmark your current location, for future use via the /transport and /auto commands.

			There are hidden locations / camps all over the map both on land and in space. At some point they will be documented, and therefore less hidden.

			When you make a new character you have a choice of what city to start in. This is mostly a choice of convenience and has no long-term effects - there are no 'home' cities or anything like that.
