[Is there a way to rename ships or stations?]

can just rename the files in there

 

EDIT: nevermind guess that wasn't what you meant

[Ship design layers]

It would be useful to be able to assign "layers" to your drawing, kinda like in autocad. This would be useful because you could turn off certain layers that you assigned, so you could more easily upgrade the internals of your ship, or do other things.

[Krieg's Hanger [w/ xml]]

Those look really cool. Remind me of the long swords from Halo.

[Scaling of crew payments]

IMO payday should be a lot longer than every two hours, I have just two ships and I spend ALL my time either making money for these stooges, or repairing after a raid that happens every 500 seconds.

[Important Discovery - space rocks]

Some people on Reddit were complaining that no one was going to their stations. You should try it out and report back.

[Everyone in space wants everyone else dead]

I agree with hostile raids being waaaay too frequent. I have been playing for a solid 10 hours over the past 2 days much to my girlfriends dismay, and to be honest, all I've done is get blown up tryong to find SOMEWHERE i can mine a little bit.

 

But EVERY SINGLE TIME I warp into a fresh astroid field, what do you know hostiles spawn in mere seconds after and I have to leave.

 

OR I get into an engagement and spend an hour trying to repair what I lost, find more freaking captains.

 

Im really enjoying this game but that combined with my allied ships going way too slow, its a chore to get them through warpgates. Its all kind of frustrating right now.

[Something's "off" about braking and changing direction]

To be honest, I seem to be having the opposite problem. Seems like no matter how many thrusters I have on I can't brake worth a damn.

[Store Ships?]

Devs are implementing safe zones in future patches, have no fear. From the sounds of things it will be here sooner rather than later.
