theres 3 hybrid mounts, one that mounts ballistic + missiles, one that mounts missiles + energy, one that mounts energy + ballistic. Synergy is one of them (Ive never memorized them), look at what tabs are highlighted at the top of the weapons list to see which hybrid ur looking at
OK, thanks

Where is the Galatian Academy?

I know this sounds like a "in the Galatia system duh" but I could not found it. In a youtube video it's around Pontus, but my pontus is empty.
Can that station be destroyed?

It is around Pontus in the Galatia system and it can't be destroyed in-game.

The attached screenshot shows where it should be.

Have you updated Starsector to 0.95? You update is the way you install it, simply downloading a newer version of the installer.

Did you delete the old Starsector folder (but not the Mods folder) before installing the 0.95a? There are often errors if you try to "overlay" an old version.

It should be enough not to have those mods enabled. If you play without mods and the academy is still gone, I think it would be best to send your save file to Alex.

Trying this game out again.  Planning on actually learning how to pilot this time.

But things move too fast for me right now in combat, how do I SLOW things down?  Wouldn't mind if it was at 15% speed really, at this stage.

Cap your FPS lower in setting.json in
Code
"fps":60, # fps only used if vsync is false

Are you sure that will affect combat speed and not just reduce fps?

It will affect ALL speed.

If you want JUST combat speed.

Are the big squares or the little squares on the System map 2k x 2k large? I can't remember.

The big ones.

And 'some distance away' from the system center means anywere from 3k-12k away, right?

That basically covers the entire system in that case...
