Time to dust off my 1.25 saves. Been hibernating due to glitch in squad trading (Rahana trading to itself).

Yay I got an orange pointer from the Steam workshop

Really excited about this - can't wait to see some really good mods on here once all the hoo ha dies down and the game is stable enough to be worth modding. Well done Egosoft and everyone else who've been patient. Let's hope this next patch leads on to a really good release version.

Well, seems like the first step in the direction of making NESA superfluous. However, from what I just saw when trying it, this really is just a list. So I guess I'll update NESA and add it to the steam workshop after all.

Why, oh why, won't you just give me the darn LUA tools, Egosoft? I would have a fully working customizable comms menu done in no time

Seams like we are heading in the right direction finally .

Credit where credit is due, this beta is the first time since launch I have been able to play the game properly, I have a high to mid level rig and it sucked ass on it, the game has stopped all lagging, it actually seams like the game is sped up it is running that well now .
There are many things I would like to see but its the first time I have been happy with the progress .

I really think a working jumpdrive is essential for this game, taxing is not for me .

Well done Egosoft .

Looks way better then before.

Still waiting for a lot of improvements though.
Until then, I will wait. Will be probably 2 larger patches from now on. So maybe around june/july

For the joystick, I can take the X axis with the roll, but I can't select the Z axis for the yaw. I've to use the throttle, nor a good solution.

Steam workshop support. Good deal man.

just note -

• Fixed ships blocking docking bays after having docking interrupted.

needs to have a retroactive fix or save games will be trashed because the docks (especially the capship dock in DHA) are busted.

How large is the patch for those of us on capped Internet? While not necessary for the betas, it'd be appreciated if posted for stable patches.
Just a couple of mb... Took me less than 15 seconds to download with 7mb/s connection.

84.8 MB, not a couple.

In times of 25GB Soundfiles (Titanfall): 85MB are just a couple

I was playing XR last night and I had captured a destroyer, and brought it (burning) to the DHA shipyard. I was waiting on fixes so I was parked near it, and the welders were fixing it up while I was doing something else with my cockpit looking at the destroyer with the welders hovering around it working on it.

My son walked up and saw it and said "holy hell what is THIS game?"

I realized that there is a ton of stuff in XR that is lost on people due to gameplay shittiness. My hope is that once we get past the playability problems, some of that can be appreciated.

I also just realized some little trains moving around on the surface of a station...what a great detail! Really looking forward to the day when this gets enjoyable!

I have been saying this since the beginning and the more the game is improved, the more people will realize it.

So is station building working 100% now?
Can i complete the main plot without editing my save file?
I realize this is beta patch but 106 hours played and I'm yet to complete the main plot. Is this now possible?

Darrosquall · Post by **Darrosquall** » Thu, 3. Apr 14, 01:11

you can do that from the patch 1.22.

Station building is working 100% now I believe. I haven't had any issues. The CV's even stay extended now and drones come out! Which is awesome. You can complete the main plot without editing your save.

Go test construct Station.
