Droid repair speed grow as fast as weapon damage. So, of you'll get good enough weapon, you will have enough firepower to take them down. And if you need money for that, do delivery or escort contracts.

Thanks a lot for your persistence. Now we know that natural limit for advancing is about level 20 (i.e. Elite-10). Game is supposed to became harder at the higher levels, but I'm not how far can one plough to.
Are you getting constantly killed even in green sector? Try doing escort missions in the green zone - enemy ships don't fly there often, and if they do, you will probably be assisted by nearby green ships. and escorts give a lot of money.

ommmmggg!!!! the enemys are getting some freakin hard! im at danger level of Elite 10 and all of the enemys are healing faster than i can even shoot them. Baturinsky, u need to fix this problem cause the only way i get cash is by killing the others and now im going to contracts and its so boring!!!

You can alter quality just with a right mouse menu. But I doubt that will change a lot. I'll try to optimize game, so it will be faster on low-end computers, but I'm not sure how successfuk I will be with that.
And autofire was never supposed for player, it's just a bug. I thought I fixed it, do you still have it?

Can't reproduce that. Had you other contract for alloys at the moment.
As for Guardian Angel, I'll submit fix shortly.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
and it would be awesome if you could put the distance in the escort contract. I'm still at 1% accomplishments there for Guardian Angel.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
don't know if this was reported; say you have a contract for alloys. you go to the station to drop sell the alloys, but it shows them for sale in the station. you check the contracts screen, and go back to what is for sale, the alloys have disappeared.
I'm guessing the station is not supposed to be selling what they have a contract for.

Wow, I have so much money now: 170,000 seems like a lot! But still, I can't afford a ship that is good in attack and size, or is that not possible.

One of the computers I use is 7 years old. It encounters loads of bugs and is also very, very slow with games. The whole game is slow.
I admit autofire is working how you want it to, but I don't need it sometimes, like when I want to fire my missiles that take up a lot of battery. Maybe make it optional?

*quivers excitedly* That's great to hear about droids. Currently, droids are my 'superfluous eq', if I need a bit more cash then I have, I sell off my repair droids without a thought. Glad you're going to tempt me not to do that! ;p. By the by, cobra ships seem to be -rare- now. I have just reached a danger level of average. I have only seen one NPC cobra ship flying around, and have not yet seen one for sale anywhere. Well balanced! (as much as I long to see them ;p)

Another idea is a computer component slot on the ship which could give you various small boosts (eg. Automatic point defence or a % boost to speed or damage or nanobot repairs)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Hm.... I just refreshed my page on accident, I'd already saved and was just idling for a while but still, you may consider adding an auto-save slot for forgetful people =3

Is that "autofiring" bug still present? It's really a bug, and it was supposed to be fixed already... About graphics quality - when do you fee lyour computer is not fast enough? Is it in a battle, or on map screen? I have noticed that game eats too much resources, but it's mostly not because of graphics.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Yeah, opponents are shooting at me and my ship is protecting itself, but I don't want it too! I had enough HP over an opponent with strong weapons but because I couldn't fire because of the AL he killed me.
And would be nice if opponents had levels on the map, so we could estimate if an attack is worth it. Leveled Als would help a lot, thanks. And the automatic shooting feature should be able to turn on and off. Put in an attack options page or something.

A little bugfix for big error. Error was causing contract's destination changing after reloading. So don't be surprised if contracts change after refreshing or reloading - they are actually returning back to normal.

MORE FEEDBACK -- It would be nice to be able to match speed with the ship you're escorting. Also, it would be nice if ships attacking your customer would pause the game if they got close to it or something, since it's annoying when I leave a station and my escort gets ambushed and dies ;~;

I've sometimes gotten that bug as well, or a similar one. I believe he means the mouse-over details in the station. You normally can see information about the stuff for sale or equipped, once this bug happens you cannot. Time seems to trigger it, it's rare and has never happened to me when I've had the game running for less then two hours.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Oh, I mean, it's because of AI trying to shoot down missiles fired at you. Is it happening when you have missiles incoming?

2unlimitedpower, I count 100 possible achievements. you can count them too using the L button, but you have to know that there are 30 of the 'ranking' missions in combat, that's not obvious.

Here's a glitch: Sometimes, after you've played for a long time, the pop up windows in the stations and your inventory don't appear. It won't go away without refreshing.

The bug is bigger then I thought. If you accept an escort mission, you cannot take -any- other contract until it's complete or you discard it.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Bug with the 'one escort contract', if you have an escort contract you are not allowed to accept any delivery contracts.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I don't know if this is normal, but my player is shooting at his own account. It's wasting my batteries and now it is really hard to destroy my opponents. Is this a new feature?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Wondering how many achievements there are, because the highest I see someone has gotten is 81. Is that possible?
And great to hear you changing the layout to be a bit nicer. Don't make it too fancy, I don't like games where you feel like you really are sitting in a ship.

I also enjoyed doing a bunch of escort (and all sorts of other) missions at the same time. Happy to load up all sorts of contracts and work to complete them all at once. It was especially nice to grab several escort contracts because the odds of every one of the ships being shot down before reaching the destination was quite low ;P. Kinda like gambling!
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Guardian angel isn't about quantity. You have to take your escort to a place that is far, far away. It is possible that one is bugged, as I've not achieved it yet, but to be honest, I've not tried it yet. I think to get it you have to find two of a faction's most distant bases and escort someone across the screen.

A little bug/exploit fix.
1. Fixed (hopefully) "respawning stock" bug. Thanks for everyone who reported it.
2. Limited escort missions to one at a time.
I tried to keep changes minimal, so hopefully this doesn't break anything.

Thanks for feedback. Interface really needs improving, and that's exactly what I'm doing now. Things what you mentioned will be part of it too:) Or most of them, at least.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
That's all the suggestions I have off the top of my head. Hopefully your code cooporates with you and you can thaw the feature freeze soon ^^

UI FEEDBACK -- General Hotkey impressions. - This might be a bug but pressing P on the profile screen doesn't drop out of the screen. - It would be nice if the same buttons always did the samethings all the time (eg. on the map, X doesn't drop you back to manual flight. I recall there being other quirks, but I don't remember them).
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
UI FEEDBACK -- An on screen indicator of the direction of a mission would be nice and/or a beacon on the map and/or a mini-map/general-direction arrow in the mission description. I usually end up just mobbing enemies because I forget where my missions are and it's moderately annoying to go look.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
*UI FEEDBACK* -- I gave up on trading because a) I was too lazy to remember the numbers and b) because it was hard to just lug around cargo till I found someplace that I could sell it for profit so it would be nice if the game remembered how much you paid for the cargo.
