Replaced the files. Working like a charm! Bug solved.
I noticed that in Beta 4 WIP it is way harder to earn money than in the version 3.4 which I was playing recently. Or maybe I had luck in my previous storyline
Thanks a lot, Levis!
we balanced some things to make it a bit harder indeed. Also luck has to do with how much you earn.
If you want some quick money you could try smuggling, it should pay very well once you get a hang of it.
Also the governor is still pretty good at paying I believe.
Still the best way to earn money is to capture ships and sell them. Altough you should mind which ships you capture because it will affect your relations a lot more.
