Ah, makes sense. Thanks!

We also got a quick preview of the Part II galaxy map, which introduces the option for curved stargate paths.

What do you mean by curved stargate paths?

Wow, that's a lot of really exciting changes! I can't wait until I get a chance to play it again. Especially with the HD graphics pack and increased facings. I was always bothered by the choppy turning (though it did have its own unique charm, I think). I recall that the reason ships couldn't have m...

I've been away from Transcendence for quite a while, and haven't really played since pre-1.1. I think my last full playthrough was on 1.06 or something around that, I can't quite remember. Would someone mind summing up the major changes since then? It looks like a lot of progress has been made!

I'm playing vanilla 1.5, and the improvements since I last played (around 1.05) are awesome, George. But killing the Kronosaurus no longer seems to trigger that whole bit where Volkov joins me. Is that intentional? I blew it up, it got recorded as a Charon frigate, and nobody paid any heed to it whe...

Personally I really like the addition of the turning thrusters. I think its a neat bit of realism. But that's just me.

What happened to the Ventari only ionising equipment? They're damaging it again. Was it changed back to damaging equipment at some point after 1.05?

Edit: it appears one of the mods I was using had reversed the change. Now to figure out which one it was.

I haven't really been active since around 1.04, it's been a while since I've played or checked the forums or anything. So what exactly is new in 1.1? It's been a long time since an official release, so this is pretty exciting

The AI in this game is prone to predictable patterns and suicidal charges. It would be nice to see it polished up, but that's not really a big issue imo

I thought plasteel was a metal with the properties of plastic and steel? I don't think it comprises any plastic in it... but I could be wrong. I thought it was just some sort of molecular alloy that had some flexibility in it but still maintained high tensile strength somehow. Artificial spider thr...

Stuff isn't exactly hard to shoot at in Transcendence
I think it's reasonable the way it is (considering most people would have computer assisted targeting on their ships anway).
Although it may be useful for some mods.

This is an achievement, not a conduct. Conducts are what you start with, and can break them.

That sort of thing could go in Achievements and Regrets though

Locking and unlocking the stargates appears to be something only the Iocrym (and whatever created them) can control.
Turrets around the gates would be a good idea though.

Since the stargates are the only practical method of traveling between star systems, wouldn't the majority of a system's population be as close to the stargate as possible? The way it is now, most of a system's stations are built far from the stargates. In real life, almost all cities are built righ...

Why not just make the Wolfen reactor 12mw?
