Overlord Confusion

Hi

I just destroyed an independents planets fleet, and became overlord of the planet.

I thought that they payed you money every time u land there, but it seems that u pay the planet 10000 every time you land.

Perhaps it has to be rebel/confed, not an independent planet, or perhaps i am just confused. plz help

You're supposed to be payed a certain amount of money every day - the amount is determined by the planet's level of technology, not where you're landing or what government it belongs to. If you're losing money to a dominated planet, something is very wrong. Are you sure that's what's happening? Do you have any escorts? It's possible that the money is going on escort payments.

Option-tab until they are selected, then hail them and select "Release From Servitude".

I guess reading the manual would've been too much of an effort, eh?
