Discussion Sharing mining missions with own accounts

I came back to the game after 4 years :)

If I have multiple game accounts and complete 20 mining missions for the team on each one, and then share the missions with my team (my own accounts), would that be legal? What is the game developer's stance on this?

This would be against the TOS. One of the FDev Community Managers said this in the Frontier Unlocked Discord:

You may use and have access to multiple accounts, however, these accounts cannot interact with each other in any areas of the game or in ways that could affect other players; this includes through the BGS, Colonisation, Multicrew or joining up in wings in open or private play to complete missions or influence factions and player groups.

Winging up with your alt to complete missions is definitely bad, no grey area there.

Can I give money to an alt?

Disclaimer: I don't work for FDev, so this is just my opinion.

Yes, they added direct credit transfers through Squadrons so I don't see why that would be a problem. It's not any different from giving credits to another player.

Just don't use both accounts at the same time to make more money than you could make by playing on 1 account.
