      Badges

      I see many postings here from people who have badges below their names. I have two badges in my profile, but none when I post a message. Is there something I need to do to turn this on?

      No Download

      No, did not want to go that route. New computer, more power, etc. Will try, but that is a workaround, not a solution. Thanks. Running the old launcher gave me a raft of errors, in essence the OS would not allow the program to run. Selecting "Run as Administrator" in the properties of the...

      No Download

      Bought a new computer, and am trying to install the game, which I purchased a long while back. 198.223a is in the beta launcher, but when I click on update, nothing happens. The file progress remains at 0/1103 and 0%. Beta Launcher is entered in as permitted through the firewall. Have...

      Ship moved after logging back in

      Small ships seem to not be a problem for me. This is the first time I have flattened a landing area on the plate for part of a base. Docking will come soon, but the outer part of the ship is undone - it's all functional parts now. I'll experiment more with some small shuttles and see if the...

      Disappearing Computers

      It was slaved, but no logic involved. I've not played in 8 months or so, so likely something through one of the updates since. Thanks.

      Ship moved after logging back in

      Thanks for the advice, thought it might be something like that. Not ready to mount a docking block yet, so will build a shuttle. Cheers.

      Disappearing Computers

      Thanks for the assist, re-linking manually worked. Saved a lot of SHFT-V....... Any ideas on what causes this? This is the first time I have seen it, twice now on one ship.

      Ship moved after logging back in

      I have a landing zone on a planet. When I log out with my ship landed, and log back in, the ship is a KM away in space, not orbiting the planet, but stationary. Any way to prevent this?

      Disappearing Computers

      I have been slowly crafting and upgrading a ship, and I have had this happen twice now. After adding multiple rows of alternating Cannon/Salvage, I go back into Flight Mode and my linked controllers are missing. Hitting T brings up all the other computers on my ship, but not these two. Both...

      Hey, I'm back!

      Everyone wins?

      Hey, I'm back!

      OK, you win. It is impossible to have a discussion/debate with someone who utilizes so many logical fallacies in one post. I believe you may hold the record: Straw man Correlation not causation Exaggeration Generalization.... I am certain to have missed one or two, as I am so overwhelmed by...

      I have been wondering this for a while, too. Thanks to the replies for the info, things to try out .....

      Hey, I'm back!

      I don't own a TV - I have a life. And, I live and work in Asia, 5 years in the UAE and KSA, currently in China. So I likely have much, much more information on the subject than you do.

      Timing Out

      Good to know, appreciate the clarification. Hope this gets resolved, as the forum is unusable overseas, and marginal (at times) now while back in Savannah.

      Hey, I'm back!

      Since you have such a hardon over slavery, you should be able to understand that Arab culture continues to be the largest practitioner of slavery on the planet. Your feigned offense at the word "Confederacy," as well as your fawning admiration of a thuggish and expansionist power that practiced...

      Timing Out

      Duke, an indicator that you are the responsible party, de facto or otherwise, for troubleshooting the issues with the website would have let me and others know that it being worked on. Your reply in DEC makes no mention that you or others involved in the site are working on it, just that you...

      OP shows WIN 8.1 and Single Player, so no help from either suggestion. Thanks.

      Timing Out

      I had thought as one responder stated, that this was an issue when logging in from overseas. However, I am back in the US for the holidays, and am having the same problem, with the same frequency, as I did in China - random logouts from 5 minutes to 2 hours of use. Does the webmaster actually...

      Disappearing Everything

      After updating the game, I decided to play again. I created a new universe, found a planet, got my basic factory setup, got some resources, then logged out and went to bed. Logged back in, no ship, no factory blocks, nothing. And, I believe the resources I took from the planet are back. It...
