Why not allow both '.' and down-arrow to be used to stop? We have multiple keys for thrust and turning. It makes sense for their to be multiple keys for braking also. That's exactly what I meant! I apologise if I did not make myself clear at the outset. I merely propose changing the down arrow key ...

I would like to re-iterate my request for this key remapping, or a reason why not, before 1.0 happens. Trying mining again in RC7, I keep thinking of this every time...

Trivial change which will make me enjoy the game a lot more

I'm wondering... I play using the keyboard arrows (not hjkl) and invoke commands and such using my left hand. The down arrow key thrusts in exactly the same way as the up key, while the nearest thing we have to "slow down" is '.' (period). I would like to politely request that the down arrow key slo...

Also, isn't the longreach anti pteravore equipment? It'll kill most of them, and picking the rest of is easy with most weapons. In RC5, my longreach didn't target the pteravores at all... then when I blew up their nest, flew in to loot it, I flew straight into about 5 of them and died. Literally ha...

Re: Bugs in rc4

I'd like to confirm the cannon accelerator bug. The accelerator works, but it does not indicate the +75% in the OSD or in the ship configuration. Also, when fighting in the arena, my opponent escaped the arena. I thought the game was lost, but it turns out I was able to escape too, on the lower-righ...

Parsing the .xml files

Hello, My python parser tools (expat) are having kittens when they try to parse undefined entities (&svAres; for example). I am unaware of a python library that will just *parse* them without complaint. This is solveable by providing DTDs for the .xml files. Are there any? Those of you that parse th...
