Sorry to bump this old thread but this flickering is still an ongoing issue for me - is there a fix?

Echo this. Thanks Erik and Elliot. Your hard work and perseverance now will most certainly pay off, keep going.

Hi All

I believe I may have discovered a bug with the 1.0.2.1 update.

After successfully installing the update last night I fired up the game only to discover that the patch had not reset any of my settings. I checked the patch notes on this update and indeed my settings should have reset, so ...

Hello! My question/request is: Is there a way to know what your race-specific tech is in-game before pursuing a certain line of research (which may lead to totally missing the tech in question)?

Don't try and get the devs to put a stop to my fun!

But yeah, it is a bit exploitative...

I had the same issue and was far from researching ion defenses. Had to open game editor and manually delete the ships stuck in the storm as they weren't budging.

Reduce number of pirates in set up screen?

Weirdly, I found this problem resolves itself after several minutes of game time (20‐30 mins). Have you noticed this?

100% agree. I'm seeing some high quality work across the board here, especially for such a small team. Well done Erik and Elliot.

When I press "L" to lock onto individual ships, their movement is really juttery.

Yep, same here. If you look closely it's like one of the layers of ambient stars are static and stuttering.

I've posted this on a form.... :)

I set my starting position as "Outer core" on the set up screens but when I click begin game it overrides my settings and always puts me in the "far regions". Have tried this 3 times with same effect.

I'm also looking forward to getting it. My only worry is that it's too similar to DW1 and not enough development in actual game mechanics has taken place. Gooexto be proven wrong.

In the Dev Diary #1, Erik talked about there being a "bridge view" camera angle on individual ships. I haven't seen this on the previee streams (yet!) but is this definitely a feature?

The next official dev diary will be in January, but I'm going to post something special up for you all here over the holidays.

Any news on the special holiday announcement?

The best advertisement for this game is word of mouth to be honest. You need to seek out the core audience first so if you like the game then when it starts to have full gameplay videos you can post them to your social media or ...

<t> I'm pretty sure this is something you could un DW1. Nevertheless, a good mechanic. Thanks for sharing. Thanks for sharing, Erik.<br/>

Edit: I actually finished reading it (!) and can see there are clear developments around diplomacy from DW1 such as the language tech and expanded ...

Steam forums can be the wild west, but they certainly shouldn't be ignored (captive audience).

Voicing frustrations on the Steam forums vs near total silence on the Matrix ones, I'm not sure what's better.

<t> Opinion alert: With all due respect to the devs, I think a lot of work needs to be done with the marketing team. The above news is a few days old, there's mistakes in the announcement, there's no new dev diaries as promised, people are losing interest and getting frustrated on the Steam forum ...
