Thanks for watching.
Finding a ship's profits two ways in X4 FOUNDATIONS. Easy way shows how to find the ship's total profit using a search to see that ship's performance, whether it's in your fleet or assigned to a station. We'll also see the ship's transaction log explained in detail.

OMG Thanks!!

You're absolutely welcome! The same can be used for looking at ship's profits for a station. Although the AI tends to do a pretty good job of making a station manager do his job and keeping ship's pilots turning a profit, this will help you verify it.

Just a comment. In the map you have the ship list on your left. I suggest having the info menu on the right side open. Then you need not do so many clicks on the ship/station list to get info.

Outstanding tip! Thank you for that. I'll try to break my old habits left over from Rebirth.

Well, I tried that for about ten minutes today. Not going to use it much. I like to see available ships in the list. Keeping a single ship selected doesn't work for me.

@@tinpony9424 i dont understand. You have your entire shiplist/stations on the left. The one you select is the one that is shown in detail at the right side menu. Nothing on the left disappears.

Ok, I have to apologize. I've used the info tab for a few things lately, and it really is handy if I remember to open it. When I'm checking say, crew on multiple ships, I can click on the (info filter) crew tab, then go down the list of ships on the left (property owned) to see what's up with each ship. Turns out I'm the one that was confused. I guess YOU can teach an old dog new tricks. Thanks again for the heads up.

I have a video in mind that deals with the menu...would you mind if I give you a shout-out for this tip? If it's ok, what user name do you prefer?
