I've made a few starts at 1.02, and I've found a few bugs or weird things that I think should be sorted out:
Firstly, pressing "k" in the intro screen crashes the game, instead of killing the ship the camera is on (Pretty obvious, might have been picked up already)

Secondly, you can exploit the fact that Huari stations drop 200 superconductig coils with a tinker, and make a ton of superconducting shields. This way you can get about 130,000 credits just past st K's with relative ease.

The most annoying issue so far is the XM900 missiles in the battle arena. Not only are they too powerful IMO for that stage of the game, but also the knockback somehow stunlocked me against the arena wall, stopping me from turning or moving till I was dead :-(

There are some other weird things I've found specific to 1.02, hopefully I'll be reminded of them on my next playthrough.

The intro screen crash is fixed in 1.03

That's a very interesting exploit with the hauri. Oddly, I have yet to see a single hauri station :/

The XM900's are nologner used in the battlearena.

Thanks for the input!

When Wolfy says the XM900's are no longer used in the arena, he means that it has been fixed for 1.03. If you want you can check the trac for bugs reported and fixed here. Fiddle around with the settings to see different views of the tickets

:lol:
Yes, I forgot to add that the XM900's were removed from the arena in 1.03; in 1.02/1.01, they are still there.

As an aside, KM550s would be a more suitable "surprise" in the arena.
