Run away from everything that moves! Just map planets and collect minerals till you have a lot of money, enough redshirts and better equipment. Then you can try tackling the natives; but will still lose lots of guys...

[Jacob/Lee]

Can meteors damage you/your ship? I think I should've walked on bombed out blasted to hell planets to know this, but just making sure.

How finished is it? Can I actually play it or it is largely in beta stage? Looking at version number I'd rather suspect it is early beta.

You can actually play it...

[Hanzoku]

It's playable and for the most part can be finished, though in previous endings, finding the 'good' ending sequence is fairly difficult.

[Majestic7]

Yeah, it is already lots of fun to play. My favorite roguelike atm with Dungeon Crawl.

My goodness ammonia sandworms are so overpowered (I think I like this though).  I had a team of 5, and my captain has lv3 exoskeleton implants and the other lv 3 defense implant.  The captain also had a personal forcefield.  The sandworm moves fast so it basically gets multiple turns/multiple attacks.  I wasn't paying attention and I instantly died from moving twice the wrong way!

A team of 5 is in no shape to fight aliens... also, make sure you've adjusted their tactics into more defensive settings.

[Seriyu]

I've played this a bit and was wondering what purpose security personel serve.

Extra HP? Or are they litterally the only crew members that can shoot and actually hit something?

[kcwong]

There's a reason why we call them Redshirts...

No, everyone in the team can shoot and kill. But the redshirts usually die first when things attack. Remember to adjust their tactics (T iirc)... the default settings will make your team fight recklessly and got them killed quickly. Change to a defensive tactics and they'll do better.

[Seriyu]

Hhrrrummmm, I didn't even know about tactics. That should help quite a bit. Thank yah.

[Jacob/Lee]

Yeah, security personnel are just redshirts that you can give guns to boost your firepower without adding expensive, redundant and useless special personnel (like scientists)

Scientists carry your lockpicks. That is very useful. Do you know how heavy space lockpicks can get?

The redundancy being part of the uselessness. And yes, space lockpicks are very heavy.

My whole team of 5 got killed by a leaf. Ayup, a leaf. 

[kcwong]

Scientists are very useful... they analyze scanned planet data and collected alien artifacts. Once you start fighting robots, they also help you to overcome the robots' defense systems and start oxygen supplies.
