Questionable Function : Teladianium Foundries require no Ore, only Energy Cells, to magically produce Teladianium for sale. It was the same in X-BTF, and it made no sense there either!

Hey. how about when you take out pirate ships adjacent to a base - and the base then happily accepts your request to dock! Are they blind, or what? I must have knocked off dozens of pirates in New Income, but the base remains my friend... weird folks, pirates.

Replies: 8

What I would like is an optional "Buy Ware" command, without any reference to Best Price. I find my ships going 3 sectors for best price, when plenty of ware is available right there in the home sector. I'm not concerned about price sometimes, only availability, but I don't see why I should have to ...

Yep, my Sidewinder Precision 2 has been randomly disappearing also. This happened both before AND after the 1.1 patch. I thought the stick (which has seen some heavy duty) must have been faulty, and bought a new one - Wingman Attack 3, which I don't much like. Now the SwP2 works most of the time, bu...

I have noticed that some jumps cost no energy! From PTNI to the sector east of Family Whi cost me nil, but then next jump to Seizewell seemed to cost more energy cells than it should have (v1.0). I have had a couple of similar nil-cost jumps since patching to v1.1.

Patch has worked just fine for me, especially the joystick fix (MS SW2 Precision Pro). I can actually fight most ships, and despite framerates in action being still far less than desirable, v1.1 at least is playable whereas v1.0 was hopeless for anything but trading. In general I have seen about a 5...

Hear hear! I haven't given the game a full workout yet, but a quick test run showed an enormous improvement in framerates. Also, my joystick now works better than in v1.0. At least a 50% immediate improvement in playability, which is fortunate because the original version ran like a 3 legged dog. (i...

One effective solution (for me, anyway) was to increase screen res from 1024/768 to 1280/1024. Framerates aren't great by any means, but definitely better, thanks to other posts on this forum.

Hanging problems are widely discussed elsewhere in the forum - due to bad/corrupted saves. Try going back to an earlier, manual save. I manually save at every station, and have had no hangs since doing that (I rotate through about 6 to 10 game slots). The autosave is a bit suss....

Seems to be a common problem - see elsewhere in this forum. The cure seems to be to always save the game yourself, don't rely on autosaves, which eventually corrupt. Same thing happened to me and I lost hours of gameplay, but have since used about 10 slots to cycle through and save each time I land ...

Yep, unstable it has become... After 13 game hours, I am stuck in a Seizewell station and game now freezes after about 2 minutes, whether I stay in station, fly out, do nothing, do something.. etc. Reboots, driver updates, all the rest, achieve nothing. Bugger.
