General Discussion / Re: Newish to the game and had a few questions
« on: October 18, 2017, 08:34:42 PM »
 Well I think ive had it with this game. No matter how many missions I complete, if the ai blatantly just screws me then there is nothing I can do. Point in case, still getting immediately attacked when starting a new game. Even if I manage to win a fight, often there is a second fleet that just pops up and attacks me before I can even escape due to my ship being unfit for combat and all that crap. This game could be great and again obviously I'm in the minority here in the forums, but it just seems like the game is rigged to really troll the player. Ive still yet been able to leave the starting system because some larger faster fleet with 4 capitol ships just come blazing at me from nowhere. Ive tried mods to see if it may balance things out but to no avail. Nah, absolutely not fun.

As title says. Ive accidentally hit my windows key several times while playing and when I click back to the game it has crashed. Alt Tab does the same.

Bug Reports & Support (modded) / Graphiclib
« on: October 15, 2017, 07:03:49 AM »
There's a lot of mods that use graphiclib, but it is causing a huge framerate drop when I play. Is there anyway to use those mods without graphiclib? Specifically - Blackrock Drive Yards, Neutrino Corp, Shadowyards, Ship/weapon pack, and Underworld.

Sorry if this is a stupid question, I'm really not knowledgeable about this kind of stuff. Problem I'm having is after the windows 10 update my computer hasn't been able to play much. It plays Starsector fine but if I activate graphicslib it just stutters and chops around. Thanks in advance.

Bug Reports & Support / Re: Will ship mods appear in game market?

No. Why would you need a special mod for that? Any ships from faction mods will spawn in their faction's markets, and mods that add ships to stock faction doctrines will have them show up in stock faction's markets.

I'm just computer stupid and was making sure is all. Thanks.

As the title asks. Wondering if I have to have a special mod to have ships in other mods appear for sale in game?

Thanks for the advice and info. Ive been playing the missions and they do help. I guess ill keep after it. Maybe playing on easy a bit before I try normal. Looking forward to the updates. Thank you again.

General Discussion / Newish to the game and had a few questions
« on: October 13, 2017, 12:10:16 PM »
Hi all. First thing I want to ask is why do I get constantly ripped by oversized fleets that appear out of nowhere right when I finish a battle. It's very frustrating, and many times when I start out the game I'm immediately attacked by a larger fleet and the game ends right there. I don't want to sound like a whiner, but more then not ive been put in situations where there is just no way out. Supplies and fuel run out extremely fast at start, leaving few options to make money(no I'm not overloaded or understaffed). Ive read in other posts to salvage other wrecks of battles but ive just not found any of these, and derelict ships I salvage provide very garbage ships that sell for less than 100 credits. Then you look at the same ship on sale for the ai and its listed at 6000 credits. I mean, I almost feel like your trolling the player. If this is intended and your making the space sim version to Dark Souls then job well done. I'm just not seeing anything positive in my play through's. I don't understand if this is they way the game is or if I'm doing something wrong. Ive been trying to play this game for the last two weeks and have yet been able to leave the starting system. 

Second, and forgive me if this is posted somewhere I haven't seen yet, what other content if any will be added to this game. I'm starting to regret getting this game due to the disappointing gameplay thus far. Is that all there is going to be to this or are we at least getting the ability to colonize planets or set up bases on a planet? Ive read where we can survey planets that haven't been explored yet, would be nice to add the ability to colonize or set up a base there.

Sorry if I sound like I'm ranting, just really concerned about the game play. I realize I'm in the minority and opinions don't count, but would still like some answers for the above.
