Mostly stuff we’ve already seen but provides the most up to date info about personal hangars.

TL;DW:

  • item kiosk have limited capacity, can only spawn smaller items (weapons, armor, food, etc)
  • unwelcome guests will get a trespassing timer when entering your personal hangar, will get teleported out after it runs out
  • no more Armistice Zone in your hangar, you can kill trespassers without worrying about getting a Crime Stat
  • the above counts for both personal hangars (the one on your home planet) and instanced hangars assigned when landing at other landing zones
  • you can place items all over your personal hangar
  • hangars were expanded to provide more space to decorate them or just store items when spawning your ship
  • hangars applied to some ships were increased
  • when buying commodities you can select whether you want them delivered to you inventory (instant) or pack them on your ship (takes time and money)
  • you can create “sell orders” which will be wait for you to deliver the accepted amount of commodity to the freight elevator on the delivery location
  • you can also sell normally (straight from your local inventory)
  • (un)loading times are based on the box size (smaller box = longer loading)
  • search is in for local inventory (only name based for now)

    I wasn’t able to get the game running on the Deck so far due to launcher issues. It worked fine initially, I was able to install and download everything without a hitch but now launcher simply doesn’t work. I can’t even try getting into the game, it’s really weird.

    I’ll try to find a way to fix it, if only to know what happened and why, but as it is now I might not be able to test things out anytime soon. I’ll let you know if there’s anything worth sharing.

      Ah that sounds like a real hassle. Thanks for trying it out though, this definitely tells me that the Deck’s probably not going to be my platform for playing SC

        Yeah, while this specific issue is most likely on my side, I don’t think SD would be a great way to experience the game anyway. Especially if you have other options.

        It’s unfortunate since I also wanted to see how it fares but it is what it is.
