Q: How so I Trade\Sell items with other players?
in space, get close to them and target them, then right click on there portrait at the upper center of the screen and select trade from the dropdown menu. if the option isn't there then you have to get closer to the player you are trading with. I assume the same applies for ground combat. Once the window comes up, select the item and drag and drop it into the window where it says item, or put in the amount of energy credits you are trading and hit trade, wait for the other player to do the same and you have a trade! (note: i have not tested this with other factions, just with federation players.)
