After my last update, i had the first mention of anybody losing run data due to updates.
I feel really bad about that, i'm sure others have too, i know it feels great to get far then to lose your progress is very annoying.
So anyway from now on i will give 1 weeks warning from this announcement board with a date before i upload any more updates, hopefully from this point on nobody will lose their run progress due to an update.
Blessings to you all!

Thoughts about criticism and a few tips for those struggling
Hi to all you interstellar rogues out there!
So I have had some great reviews, most notably from space game junkie. I have been watching him play quite a bit and learned a lot from it.
Sooo I also have had my first non press review which was terrible :-/. But after chatting with said reviewer and listening to other criticism I have learned my tutorials really need expanding.
Theres quite a few mechanics I thought people would figure out really quickly that they just seem to miss(at first at least).
I cant do any updates right now, but will be able to in about 3 weeks.
These are some features I plan to add.
* several extra tutorial sections to explain a few mechanics.
* a lander practice zone.
* some alternative control modes for the lander section.
* I also plan to get some help with my typos.
For now here's a few pointers for things that may not be clear:
* the game is paused while in the inventory.
* the game saves automatically when you exit through the options screen, available in the top left of the inventory screen.
* you do not need to land on deralicts you can jump right out and leave your ship hanging in space.
* f1 will give you a key map.
* lock on weapons do not fire automatically. Use right mouse button.
* drop weapons like mines and drop turrets also dont fire on auto. Use secondary fire, right mouse button.
* theres a medals screen on the main menu it tells you what you need to do to get them.
* When you sell an item the thing that comes out of your ship is a selling drone it costs 30 fuel and 1 big scrap to make.
* if enemies are too hard just hyperdrive away from them.
* using the lander you chan change you thrust in cruise control from 0 to 100
Some of this info is already in tooltips and tutorial sections but seems to confuse people.
If anybody needs help please put it up on the discussion board and I will do my best to help.

FINAL BOSS FIX
I did a run yesterday flying to jump 21 as fast as i could in the EPA flying saucer and.... i managed to win!!! just using speed alone! sooooo its not meant to be that easy!!! the mainframe now fields 4 hard beams which replace 4 of its missle launchers, that should balance things out against any tiny unupgraded superfast craft ːsteamhappyː
* Mainframe now has teeth, Hard beams i mean ːsteammockingː
* Blowing up fuel and 02 cans should now be more stable
