Pocket watch/ calculator combination. Not that hard after all.

Also, if spacetravel isnt instant than  it'snt much of a problem, really.
But people still need a common measure of time and date. Like making contracts etc.

Well, we have a standard time, too, and we are only one planet :P

We have standardized time zones, and use them for space that depend on where you launched from. We are talking about hundreds, if not thousands, of solar systems containing potentially millions of populated worlds. From what I can tell from the text, there is a standard, galaxy wide year and day, with the year being 100 days and a day 25 hours.

And on earth there is one standard time (GMT) which is then modified based on where you are. As we all have the same day cycle it makes the maths easy, but it should be simple to translate.

THis is the reason china is one time zone.

You want something that really screws with interplanetary time?

I have about 270k, so thats about a third of the cost there. The question is, can we get enough for 1.4 million?

I think that we don't reach that number (pssst, the GM is forcing us to start with a crappy ship or do another thing before buying a ship)

100+150+270=520 right there, so we should be able to get some kind of ship. I don't think we'll pass a million, though.

Aseaheru: it was not an OOC comment, my character just was saying that if you are going to invest in something with somebody who invests more than you, then you have right for a lower portion of the benefits, just that. Our characters are thinking about making money, anyway.
