11.2 is obsolete. Look for a newer version announcement.

Thanks to Shingen and JT for excellent work on the last release. Here is a list of bugs they helped discover and fix:

No moving lights in capsule space to increase frame rates.
Sound removed from lights, added to tunnel.
Dead player wingmen not saved.
Player ships adjusted for lateral/thrust.
Player ship max speed lowered to make throttle work correctly.
NPC tugs changed to have more lateral to avoid collision.
Fuel transfers from pod to wingman.
Fuel prices fixed for tankers.
Small tankers fixed.
Hired ships dont start with zero fuel. Can be refueled.
30 second delay before NPC cargo ships try to use cargo dock.

Please use this thread to report bugs you find in Unstable Space version 11.2 Thanks to everyone who takes the time to help us out. The sooner we get the basic features stable, the better for everyone.

We want to know about crashes immediatly. However, if you have not played the standard game since your last hardware upgrades or Windows updates, then please try the standard game without the mod (rename your unstable space mods folder to mods_us is all it takes to uninstall the mod). If you are seeing crashes in the standard game, it is a hardware or driver issues. If the crashes go away, it is probably a bug in USpace.

Writing a good bug report:

If the bug is not a crash, try to get it to happen twice before you report the bug. The moment you see the bug a second time, pause your game. Write down: The exact station name or lpoint. The system name. Which start did you use.
Then list the steps that you did to get the bug to happen the second time. It does not have to be super complex. Here is a good example:

"I was in LDS approaching station Emerald STC in Emerald, with my freighters in formation, when suddenly they vanished. I paused and saw they were 100,000km away. And the distance to the station was 250km. I had my wingmen vanish once before, but I was approaching Etcom Common metals in Alcuin."

Once you have written down the specifics, save your game. Make a new folder with the bug name "vanishing_wingmen". And put a copy of the save game and flux.log file into the folder. Then if we need them to find the issue, you can send them in.

Dunno if this is relevent or not, but I had a problem with the install package not responding. After 3 trys it finally installed.

[edit]

Is there anyway to get U.S. to run in a window?

yes. you open flux.ini and change full_screen = 0

Perhaps there is an update to the installer package. I will check it out.

Game won't start.

Keeps loading "Insert Play Disk" screen, even with the play CD in the CD-ROM. No-CD crack for 14.6 won't work either.

Sounds like the download was corrupted somehow. I will download on my end. You might try to download again.

[Edit]
The download worked fine on my machine. If you download a new copy and that fails as well, try backing out the mod (just remove the mods folder) and see if the standard game still plays.

Dunno.. I had to do a complete uninstall, wipe (even the reg entry), and reinstall to 14.6. Then installed 11.02.

Then, I started Normal setup and began with 0 credits img58.imageshack.us/img58/213/shot0000jd1.png

Here's an example of an asteroid almost right on top of an L-point.
