yes you are... just found the problem. (It boils down to "I am an idiot")
Will fix.
I could modify  the savegame manually to include the missing control terminal for the forcefield?

Anyway...here is the modified savegame:

modified game: May still take a bit.

Since I encountered crashing I started backing up saves... while you're working on the problem I went to another unique planet - this time, the silicon one with your ship stuck.

The same happened again! I cannot find a way to proceed. All the enemies are dead, I found my way into the deepest cave but no boss to beat, no consoles to use, etc.

Is that a problem about the map generation... which means, many of my unique planets are generated with a dead end?


Edit:
I'll report some minor bugs while you're here...

- The comment function sometimes glitch. When I press "C" (that's what I've mapped), the green cursor sometimes do not appear on my ship's location. Instead it's moved a random distance to the left - and comments I typed will end up shifted as well.
- The bug that the captain is stuck in on ship (after getting hallucination) is still there.

I am generally careful about "unique planets". They were main sources of glitches and death .
If you could fix the control terminal, it would be great, Magellan .

On the lowest level of the living planet, in the middle of the map there is a small mound, the planets brain that you have to destroy
I am unaware of any glitches there.

Ah... my bad. I've located it, and I tried to shoot it several times before, but didn't get any message about damaging it or any visual change, so I figured that wasn't what I need to find. Turns out I just need to shoot it more... then it loses its colour in ASCII mode and I was able to take off.

Got another minor one... when I return to the only base left, I got penalized for returning alien artifacts...


Seems to be a buffer overflow, as I have collected a huge amount of artifacts and haven't returned for a while.


Game crashes when I try to design a new custom hull. The console window comes up (I had it minimized) and yellow text said press key to exit.

I tried that, didn't work for me

But let me use this opprotunity to necro this thread once again, and tell everybody who wants to know that I just released a version with a few bugs fixed.
Also there is now a precompiled Linux version

Enjoy!

7) buy an awesome ship and get killed by the still-hostile station anti-pirate cruisers

You don't stop being a pirate by killing pirates. You keep on being a pirate by killing pirates. That's why pirates are awesome.

magellan already necro'd so I'm safe

Glad this game is still being made.

Good, I was getting a little worried what with no recent updates. Also Magellan, its not necro, its an update. Your always welcome to post in the thread here with new updates as far as I am concerned.

Yeah by all means we are waiting for your updates a lot of the time...

The reason why Necros are hated is because they are reviving unwanted threads that died of natural causes.

In your case your bringing up a topic that people are in fact still waiting on.

Not exactly a bug, but I just downloaded the Precompiled linux version, that says its 2.2b, and the README says version 1.12. Probably just needs to be updated.

[Carcanken]

How difficult is this game compared to DF? Like, is it something like M>B>I to goto inventory (just an example) and no mouse support?
