Just to return to the original question for a moment:

There is a /1024 switch to force the game to use its preferred resolution. I don't know how that will work out on a widescreen, though...

Thanks for pointing that out!

(I was asking about donation options when 1.0 came out, but while I hit the forums every so often, I don't normally check the front page so much)

Ludicrously remote stations

Since the Korolevs primary pirate station is generated based on the furthest planet, it can get placed seriously in the middle of nowhere when theres a Korolevs in a binary star system. In my case I found it by calculating that it would turn up about 2500ls out and circling based on that... It may n...

Bump, cause Clumsy Bill is still on guard in RC9.

I have a save file (after Bill shot the station, just as the squabbling starts) if the cause isn't self evident.

Antarctica glitches

Haven't actually tested in RC8, but there's nothing in the code to make me suspect anything has changed since I last hit these: (1) If you talk with the folks in the Antarctica, then there is no conversation option between "Sent to kill" and "Completely clueless". Given that "Completely clueless" ge...

[RC8] Refugees going wrong direction

Whenever I get a 'guard the refugee convoy' mission it always seems to be heading *towards* the war zone rather than *away* from it. Unless they're refugees from the mass destruction I have been causing in the inner systems. I suppose I probably count as a war zone. But then why would they have me g...

[RC8]Failure to refuel text

When you try to refuel and have too powerful a reactor, the stations seem to always give their lowest tech fuel type in the resulting message. While technically correct, it comes out as weird, since you probably know that they have better stuff available.

OK, I'm not having a no-buy game, I'm having a 'why would I spend money?' game. Xiphon in Eridari, Lancer and Class 5 before the arena, and a Sung Citadel just dropped a Fusionfire before Sanctuary... I need all my cash to keep my reactor up to spec... Now the question is going to be whether I can g...

Really? I find pretty much every station on the game is pretty trivially taken out with a long range weapon and some patience. There's pretty much no resistance given until the station is destroyed if you stay a reasonable distance away...

What you dont want to see on a nobuy game:

"[Only installed weapon] damaged by defective ROM"

Luckily, I had a Xiphon Cannon (in Eridari!) that went quickly from "this will be nice when I have a bigger reactor" to "OK, how close to overloaded can I go before shutting down?"

Or maybe there was some epic fridge logic and somehow she miraculously survives once again... (when everyone on ships that arn't commanded by her always die with their ships...)
