As far as I know, the reason your ship always needs one fuel rod is due to the fact that time still passes when you are docked, just at a much slower rate (I'm guessing about a tenth as fast or so). Unfortunately fuel is still consumed, and as long as your fuel isn't full (which it isn't the instant...

So if the QAC was the only way back in 0.7, was the method of obtaining it different? Because obviously if you pissed the Huari off, then you couldn't win the game, am I correct?

If I remember correctly...

When I underwent experiments, I had NO medical items in my cargo hold, yet I survived 3 different types... so it's just a chance of death, and the items make survival a guarantee?

I found this problem a few days back and recorded it, but alas I also made the mistake of overwriting my savegame (I kinda hit a major dead end). If I find myself more Teraton researchers I'll gladly help out. By the way, this error happens once per nest with research as far as I can tell... if that...

Equipment and power consumption

In my most recent game, I had the pleasure of running very low on fuel in hostile space with the bad luck of no nearby stations and extremely low cash. Fortunately I found a Corporate Trading post and got some Xenotite rods, AFTER I finally figured out that turning off EVERYTHING really saves power....

On my first run where I actually finished the game (Sapphire, I prefer Wolfen now, though I miss the cargo space and versatile slots), I wound up with a Shuriken +20% as loot from something during the 3rd or 4th system, IIRC. Very strange indeed. But very nice. Now I always seem to have trouble gett...

If we ask really nicely maybe... Failing that we can always deduce for ourselves with hours of work.

The CSC is the borderline between ship and station. The closest example I can think of in terms of scale is Executor, which was shielded. I think it was only shielded around the bridge area and critical components. This fits in well with the whole multiple emitters idea. I think the in-game scale i...

Being a first timer here, but also having developed and helped developers before, I'd like to say it's nice to see that the game is still being worked on, even if it turns out to be a snail's pace compared to earlier.
