Wrong.
That is very strange. I can go through trade lanes just fine. Perhaps its a problem with the FL installation or mod installation?
AAAANYWAY... I'd like to bring up two points: Bombers & Swarm Missile Pod.
Get rid of the bomber. This seems to be the ONLY way to fix the Bomber Balance problem that seems to be making VHF's almost obsolete. A single well-placed shot from a Nova is death. And bombers get a LOT of shots from those cannons. Personally, it should take at least 2-3 fighters at least 2 with Novas to take out a battleship.
The swarm... Well, its not right for Freelancer. Its the ONLY missile in the game that has any tracking ability. It can still hit fighters that are practically behind the ship firing it. Not to mention, after a while, no matter how good of a pilot the person is, if the opponent flies defensively and simply launches millions of swarm missiles (especially awful with dual Swarm on bombers) the first pilot WILL start to lose weapons, shields, equipment, etc. My suggestion: Remove it.
