 For maybe another 10-15 seconds I watched, as the other ships in the Aegis, maybe half a dozen or so, all went about their normal business. Everything looked so normal. If you can call a hulking great battle-wagon bristling with turrets, and a bad rep to boot, normal...

 === OXP Contracts ===
 Several OXP's offer additional types of contracts to the player. 'Contracts' in this context are understood to be repeatable, variable, optional missions that aren't part of a single-play, once-only mission. These are:
 * [[Enhanced Passenger Contracts]] - more picky passengers who want to avoid fights, anarchies and feline worlds! And change their minds half-way through!
-* [[GalCop_Missions|GalCop Missions]]
+* [[GalCop_Missions|GalCop Missions]] - a wider range of contracts
-* [[Escort_Contracts_OXP|Escort Contracts]]
+* [[Escort_Contracts_OXP|Escort Contracts]] - escort contracts
-* [[RRS_Group|Rescue Stations]]
+* [[RRS_Group|Rescue Stations]] - courier & escort contracts, Rescue & Recovery missions
-* [[Random Hits]]
+* [[Random Hits]] - assassination contracts
-* [[In-System_Taxi|In-System Taxi]]
+* [[In-System_Taxi|In-System Taxi]] - passenger contracts
 * [[Mining_Contracts_OXP|Mining Contracts]]
-* [[Smugglers_-_The_Galactic_Underworld|Smugglers - The Galactic Underworld]]
+* [[Smugglers_-_The_Galactic_Underworld|Smugglers - The Galactic Underworld]] - more complexities for cargo contracts
-* [[Taxi_Galactica|Taxi Galactica]]
+* [[Taxi_Galactica|Taxi Galactica]] - passenger contracts

	For what seems like long seconds, the planet below seems to be drawing no nearer. Shields are dropping below 15% under the pounding from the turrets, and lasers are flying past us on all sides. At last I can see the ground getting closer, and it's not just the altimeter telling me so. We hit atmosphere, and the cabin temp starts to climb. Screaming straight down at 2.5 kilometres per second, the ground comes up fast... temp and altitude are both flashing red as I haul back on the stick and pray we pull out before cratering in. For anyone watching from the ground, the plummeting fireball must have been spectacular..		For what seems like long seconds, the planet below seems to be drawing no nearer.

	There are three types of contracts available: '''cargo''', '''parcel''' and '''passenger'''. These contracts are accessed through the [[F4 page (ship and system interfaces)\|F4 Interfaces screen]], via the "Cargo contract deliveries", "Parcel contract deliveries" and "Passenger contract deliveries" items. The quantity and quality of any contracts is variable and dependant on a number of factors (position of the planet in the galactic sector, experience of the pilot, available space on the ship, ''etc'').

 The destination will be displayed on the system map, and if the [[Advanced_Navigational_Array|ANA]] is installed, the route will also be shown, and menu options will allow the route mode to be switched from "quickest" to "shortest". Details about the contract will be shown here, including estimates on how long the voyage will likely take, how much will be paid in advance, and how much will be paid on completion.

 === Bulletin Board System ===
 The [[Bulletin Board System]] can be used to combine all the standard contracts, and most of the OXP contracts, into one view, rather than having a different F4 interface screen for each one, by using the [[Bulletin_Board_Contracts|Bulletin Board Contracts]] OXP.
