Elite / Frontier Any fans of Elite-A here?

Stumbled on this version not too long ago. What fun!

I grew up in the c64 edition, but this is a real improvement! Running it on the Frontier 2.1 BBC Micro emulator. Took me a while to figure out that to initialize the joystick you must press Fire when it says press Space or Fire.

I was wondering how different the missions are or if it's the same as classic Elite, or are there more missions, etc.?

I've had some fun with this in the past, although some emulators are better at running it than others. BeebEm works well.

As far as the missions are concerned, I don't think any more were added. I'm referring to the author's page here

BeebEm is fantastic, it even makes the sounds of the floppy drive. A lot of Emulators are doing this now....I love it.
