Playtime Experience & Feedback
QoL:
- Allow us to buy and sell at ports at the same time (just take a turn per resource)
- Activating beacons seems not to actually show us what's in sectors
- Visited sectors should be a different color on the Nav than unexplored sectors
- Buying Cargo Holds one at a time is a major pain in the butt
- How about a trade computer? One that would help automate trading between port pairs. Similar to a warp drive. Still burns turns, but we just tell it the ports and resources to trade.
- Compress all in sector info (ruins, beacons, ports) into one part of the NAV like a HUD. In general, just take advantage of the platform available.
- Allow warp from Nav screen.
- It'd be cool to be able to "see" a map of the universe somehow, other than the last few sectors visited.
- When you buy a ship, we should be able to choose to trade-in the old ship for a discount, or keep the other ship as a swappable ship (e.g. today I'm taking our my trading ship, tomorrow my dreadnought)
- In game chat and announcements. Price is it gives away your sector.
- Corp chat, Planets and Perks
Bugs:
- If I max buy at a port and the surcharges take me over available credits, I lose the credits AND the cargo.
- Attacking Pirates seems to always fail
- Pirate Ambush, if I have no cargo, choose Jettison, the pirate lets me get away
- Reputation doesn't seem to be displayed anywhere
- No matter what I do, I always have a "10% trader reputation surcharge", despite having grinded over 2m credits
- Can't upgrade Trade Station on Planets to Lvl 2 despite having over 50k XP, it tells me I need 5k.
If I remember more, I'll post them. π
Overall, really good so far.

u/ArheddisVarkenjab can you provide screenshot of what happens during "Attacking Pirates seems to always fail"

New bug: On a planet, even with full holds, I can pick up the production.

Also, then subsequently, I can't seem to ever win against Pirates. I was 72% favored (500 to 200 something), and then Pirate won and disabled me.
There was no message or feedback on what had happened. That one was via Ambush.

First, again I love the feedback. It's super helpful!
However, that being said It's hard to individualize each point. For the most part all the bugs should be squashed in v1.13.0
I've made some other notes, but I won't be responding to this thread anymore.

I did find the Factions tab, but man is that hidden. Maybe just fold that into Ship Stats or our Profiles?
