Hi there, after getting it on such a big discount I want to give at least a little bit back:
Bugs found:
- if scan speed is improved by skill Passive Scanner Systems this isn't shown in the ships info (N).
- start and end sectors for Recovery Missions are reversed on the map
- the selected Icon Size in the cargo panel isn't remembered in the save game
- if you are on the map while the autopilot is jumping to another sector then the cyan highlight of the current sector isn't updated (but recentering works).
- the Improved Active Scanner doesn't get highlighted in the garage (found on a BU-1)
- the infos in the pilot panel (exp, factions and so on) aren't updated while it is open getting the missions debriefing (e.g. if completing more than one mission in the same station). The pilot panel needs to be reopened to show the updates. Because the pilot panel stays open on entering a station I think it's a bug (or you need to rethink it's behaviour).
Some strange (?) behaviour:
- I took on a raider mission, but the Enforcers finished him. That's their job (and easy money for me), but why did I receive a penalty in faction standing with the enforcers? I believe my weapons were pointed at the raider although I'm sure I had the Enforcer in the target list (not locked). They never shot at me though.
- My lv.1 Combat Merc (Labor) was killed in Labor territory and my standing with Alpha dropped from 1.6 to 0.5. The death notification showed up much too short (still was busy with the raiders) and didn't made it into the journal to be read again. Only after reading it in another post it dawned on me, that I'm with Alpha (makes sense from the tutorials), but it's not shown anywhere, is it?
Suggestions
- Show start/end sectors not only in the mission board, but also for accepted missions on the map if the "Missions" filter is active. The missions could be selcted with the side panel.
- Scanning: I would really appreciate an option to scan only all the ships in a sector
- Bookmarks: On the map list GPS bookmarks of a sector in the mouse-over if the bookmarks filter is active. Add a new tab for bookmarks in the journal.
- Journal: Please don't show all the GPS/autopilot enable/disable clutter or at least make it configurable. It would be helpful to better trace back changes to faction standing, exp., skill points and so on if we could reread the rewards for a completed mission, i.e. the debriefing text.
- I would like to have more of the fuzzy stages in faction standing to progress through: Right from the start I worked on a specific faction and am now at 1.47, but after all these hours it still says "neutral". I also believe some balancing is needed here as later on around lv. 10 a single mission to kill one lone raider in a tiny shuttle easily gives me +0.8 for a faction in a matter of minutes.
On a side note: I never missed thruster control, as I'm always running on afterburner and automatic docking/warping works fine :)
