You know that feeling, when you faced off against a bounty, had a massive battle, prevailed but almost lost your ships, go to save, and then...

Still loves purple. Still not skilled enough to make a mod that doesn't get that one damn error.

The game is extremely stable for me. 5-6 hours sessions and didn't crash once, and steady 63 fps, which I assume is a hardcoded limit. I run it vanilla though, so maybe mods decrease stability?

...I guess they do, I also submitted pictures of the after math of the battle before repairs so..yeah, you'll be able to tell.

What a letdown though...

There's a savegame backup in the save folder. The file ending in .bak, just delete the ending.

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.

I've held my breath when I've pushed the Save button and everything freezes for a minute but no crashes yet.
