General Discussion / Any way to disable the Path faction from a game?

« on: January 23, 2021, 09:57:42 AM »

That something Path faction is just too much. They've begun a presence in my system. I've tried going there so I can try to destroy their base but i can't get close. They have a massive fleet that wipes me every single time. The fleet is just insane. You could cut it in half and it would still wipe me. Is there some way to hire someone else's fleet to deal with them?

Heck, i just want to disable them completely. I have a hard enough time dealing with all the other things going on. I haven't been able to do any exploring to try and find more ruins so I can continue to build up.

Are there any cheat codes that let me destroy a fleet?

Right now i feel like I'm on a timer... and time is running out.

I'm about ready to quit playing again and go play something else.

If i store most of my ships will the other fleets in the galaxy get smaller also? Every time i get bigger the other fleets do too. Which is why i feel I'm on a timer I guess.

General Discussion / Quick Transfer of items

« on: January 20, 2021, 01:54:31 AM »

This post is mostly to help me remember. But hopefully others will find it useful too. I'll play a game for a while sometimes. But I can be distracted by new game releases and such. Then it can be a while before i come back to a game I like to play. This time I've gotten a new computer so I had to reinstall Starsector. Hell, I also completely forgot about it for a bit. But i read a comment on youtube and it reminded me.
When playing the game, after a while, it can become a bit tedious transferring items from one storage container to another. Even selling items can get tedious. So I tried to find a way to speed it up. In many apps, and even in a lot of games, devs have added such QoL features. Starsector also has such a QoL feature. But it's hidden and you can't change it by going to Options or anything... uh, that I know of anyway. But it can be done.

:tldr:

Go to:
\Starsector\starsector-core\data\config\settings.json
and change:
"altMouseMoveToMassTransfer":false,
to:
"altMouseMoveToMassTransfer":true,

That's it. Now you just hold Alt in game and point at something in an inventory to move or sell it.

I read Marines were used to cap ships prior to .8(?). What use are they now? Can i add them to my colony to make it more secure or something?

General Discussion / Firing Administrators?

Is there a way to fire Admins?

I got one from some pod or something but I don't have any colonies. So he's sucking up a paycheck for doing nothing but looking up galactic porn.

General Discussion / Colony info?

« on: November 27, 2018, 07:13:26 AM »

Under Colony Info on the right. If you hover your mouse over supplies, or something else, you'll see a bunch of useful info. What does it mean by 'Maximum Demand: 2'

General Discussion / Importing...?

« on: November 25, 2018, 05:40:29 PM »

Is there any detailed info about importing exporting?

Specifically I just built a colony on a planet that has no farmland. So I apparently have to haul food there manually. But from my last play through I remember getting information about imports. So I'm wondering if my colony will import it's own food since it knows it can't produce it. Also, considering this I'd like to know what does get imported and why?

General Discussion / On the Fence

« on: October 12, 2013, 12:44:42 AM »

Not sure whether to buy this game or not. I hate spending money on a game in development, then it takes the dev's a year to post any updates. Which seem to be minor and insignificant.

I posted in the welcome thread and explained a little. Here's the link, if it works: http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=3.msg117245#msg117245

So, those of you who've been invested, what do you think of the game and Dev/s?
