Anyone use Xbox controller notice its fairly unusable since latest patch? Its just way to sensitive, slight movements while flying send my ship crazy and cant seem to fix it.

Cheers for that will give it a try. I'm only running a 1050Ti, so have most things turned down quite a bit in an effort to keep the frame rates up. Just out of interest how many hours have folk put into this? I've just hit 20 hours and it still feels like I've just only dipped my toe in the water. I had my first crash back out the windows desktop yesterday, sods law I had just discovered a manufacturing base. (whatever that may have been, LOL)

172hrs on the clock so far.
That's total play though - only got one 20hr save game on the go at present.
Some way to go before I catch Skylines and Banished, at 571 and 527 hrs respectively..

I'm tempted to bin off my first 20 odd hours and start again now that I have a feel for how it all fits together. It's one of the few games that I can actually understand how you could easily lose a lot of hours to it. It can be a grind, but it's chilled and easy to unwind to, thus far anyway. It's one of the very few games that have hooked me in, in a very, very long time.

Absolutely. I play Creative mode- just enjoy travelling, exploring and mooching about. The scale of everything astounds me. It was just starting to get a bit dry, when the NEXT update came along, thankfully with multiplayer and enough new stuff to make it fresh again.
Had a nice session the other night; found a nice planet and decided to build a base there, on the edge of a lovely lake. Halfway through the build, two more players join my game and both come to visit. After agreeing what a nice planet it was, they've both built bases too, one on the other side of the lake, one on an island in the middle.
One of them logged off cos he was tired, the other said cheerio and went off exploring.
It wasn't much, but I just thought 'Wow'. And the multiplayer aspect is only just getting going. Interesting to see what develops over the coming months.

I binned a 70-odd hour save post-update. There were a few corruptions in it caused by the update, so I took the hit and started over...

So whilst i wait for some wizz kid to fix their mods, so that i can hover on planets again, i have installed superman mod, now i have unlimited jet pack, faster walk, and faster run, so don't need the ship anymore

Joyous. Two crashes last night, one after fiddling with Wattman, the other after returning GPU settings to default. Knocked my RAM back down to 3000 just in case, but I really don't need this...
Can anyone confirm my understanding of swapping stuff between inventories?
So you can only move things to and from your starship if you're close to it (I got a mod for being able to teleport distantly, but was disappointed to find that it only made it a little further).
You can move things TO your freighter no matter where it is, but you can only get things back from it by being on it.
Is that all right, or am I doing something wrong? And is there anything you can do to make inventory management easier?

Yes, yes and yes

If anyone liked to use cheats, I recommend Cheat Engine, works much better, some aspects of the game are so much more fun with cheats, gets rid of the grind.

Never use any of them, what's the point when you have you ship

It'd be great if your could activate beacons, knowledge stones etc without having to jump out of it first. Just pull alongside and click...

Flew to a system today, and found an abandoned space station, was quite weird lol, and the planet next too it was a "Temporary" planet, which looked like it was made of polygons and when i landed had loads of weird trees

Yeah, found a few of those! Everything is made of hexagons.
Found a system with not one, but two 'Deathly Green Anomaly' planets last night. And they were both utter ****-holes...

What gets my goat is when you find a Paradise planet, and as soon as you land, the scalding rain starts...

Must have set up quite a big farm to churn out that many circuit boards, any chance of a pic of your set up? I am still doing it old skool and farming planets I land on
