Sorry if this is the wrong place to post it or f it's in the ingame help menu, but can you rotate the core in shipmaker and if so, how? If not, it would be really helpful if you could.

you can flip it using L and J, but I don't think it can be rotated.

Oh well, it doesn't matter now because reading through the change log for version 3.0, I found out that you can rotate sections and those parented to them using ctrl j and l. It's really useful.

That was the most unepic third 1000th post ever.

Change your resolution to a more traditional view, such as 1024x768. Then you'll see why 16:9 should always have 4:3.

*Streeeeeeetch*

I'd rather have horizontal letterboxing on a 4:3 monitor than vertical letterboxing (or extreme stretching) on a 16:9.

Also, I wonder why there aren't more 5:4 and 16:10 resolutions available?

Because PAL and NTSC don't like them.

Well, I'm in a PAL territory, and I use 1280x1024 (5:4) for almost everything. No problems with stretching, letterboxing or missing screen areas.

My monitor is a 5:4 19-inch LCD.

Hum... not really a bug, but the new Graveyard is slightly "Boring" now. 3 of the enemy waves are totally identical... 2 of the ships with Impeder Fabs, and one of the smaller ships with aegis. Heavy and Armored Cruisers, I think? I'm not saying go back to the old set (holy hell, that was HARD, but doable), but some variety would be cool.

"A taste of things to come" or "Sneak peak" and "Big things" means a massive wait or abortion of the project in most times.
Especially when there are lots of "upcoming" projects.

I know! How about a game where you get to build your own ship and share them with other people that would work.

What happened here?

Usually there would be at least one new edition between the last post and this one, but nothing's come up.
