Since I'm new to this and watched many tutorials to understand them I want to ask some questions.

1.When i get near the facility I must conquer it says contested and then a timer starts.If I leave and come back later does the timer stops and resets?

2.If the timer goes to zero I get loyalty points?

3.One timer went to zero and I got an email

You have secured our facility in ......... However, because the system is not contested by the enemy the Tribal Liberation Force cannot authorize a transfer of loyalty points at this time.

So no points at any time and how I get points?

4.Sometimes there are npc frigates neat the facility what happens if I kill them.

5.What the stable status means in capture status ad what percent I should look for?

Thank you.

It stops, doesn't reset. We are lobbying hard to get the devs to change it so it resets.

Yes, if the system is stable or contested (vulnerable or constested for defensive plexing) when the ends and you are close enough to the button.

Sounds like you completed a plex in a friendly system that was completely stable. In that case you do not get any LP.

If the system is controlled by the enemy you need to kill those NPCs in order to capture the plex. If the system is friendly you do best to leave the NPCs alone.

I don't understand this question.

You can't have done much research. All of these questions are answered on the wiki page.

I believe you are referring to the "system status."

Basically...

1. if the system is "friendly" and stable, don't run complexes. Nothing will happen.
2. if a system is "hostile" then run the complexes (regardless of its status). You will get Loyalty Points for running down the timers (after you have killed the NPC guarding it).
3. If the system is "friendly" and contested, run the complexes. You'll get LP for running it, but it will be much lower than running the same one in a "hostile" system.

Also keep in mind...
- anyone can enter a complex as long as they are in the proper ship... friend, foe, or neutral.
- all the "normal" aggression rules still apply if a neutral enters the complex.

Plex means to warp in these green marks that appear for some seconds and then dissappear?

1st step in FW if you aren't familiar with it should be to find and join a player corp.

Yes. They will appear as...

- Novice Complexes/Outposts: only allows Tech 1 and Faction Frigates.
- Small Complexes/Outposts: allows Tech 1 Destroyers and Tech 2 Frigates in addition to the above.
-Medium Complexes/Outposts: allows Tech 1 and 2 Cruisers and Tech 2 Destroyers in addition to the above.
-Large Complexes/Outposts: no ship restrictions.

Plenty of FW corps don't require you to be in their fleets :p
